Majors Company Editorial Review: Product Description: This handy, spiralbound manual presents approximately 200 adult, child and maternal protocols and their related home care instructions. This easy-to-use, rapid-access guide helps to quickly detect the urgency of a caller's problem by suggesting appropriate questions, grouped according to degree of urgency. The nurse is then able to assess the severity of the problem and the need for medical intervention. Serving as a decision-making tool, this manual will help the nurse easily recognize who needs immediate medical attention, who should be seen within 24 hours, and who can be monitored at home. In addition to at-your-fingertips guidance, the book addresses legal issues, lessening the risk of liability. A format is provided for setting up a telephone triage program. The index, composed mainly of protocol listings and related symptoms, enables you to access the desired protocol quickly. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great Text !!! exactly what I needed !I needed this text in order to get my nurse two!! It is simple to understand and helps you remember whhat you need !!

Rating: - Best telephone triage protocols book After reviewing many book I find Telephone Triage Protocols for Nurses the best one out on the market. My team agrees. Rating: - Very good primary care office resourceOur busy office found this book an excellent resource. We hardly had to change the protocols much at all, only to update a few to reflect some changes in medications we use. The author has taken great pain to design a resource that saved us a great deal of time....I had started to do some of these for our office by myself BEFORE I came across this book and am embarrassed to admit the few protocols I managed to plod through were amateurish indeed compared to Ms. Briggs's work herein.
