Provider Institute Best Practice Tip
Provider Institute recommends that all providers of DVA Community Nursing read the updated Notes for Community Nursing Providers to ensure they are compliant with latest requirements and implement necessary changes in their organisation.
Any changes impacting staff (especially in relation to their scope of practice) must be communicated, and education provided to make sure everyone understands and follows the new requirements.
