Description: The development of standards for nursing practice is the first step toward the attainment of quality nursing care. The adoption of standards helps to clarify the psychiatric nurses' areas of accountability, since the standards provide the psychiatric nurse, the employer, other professionals, clients, and the general public with a basis for evaluating practice. Standards also define the nursing profession's accountability to the public.,, Location: Canada-BC Year: 2011
