Department of Nursing

Welcome to the Department of Nursing at John Dempsey Hospital. The site is intended to be a one-stop shop for reference information, announcements, and other resources useful to the hospital community. From this site users can access the contents of the Nursing Practice Manual (accessible through the link on the left of this page labeled "Nursing Practice Manual"), individual unit practice manuals (accessible through the link on the left labeled "Unit Practice Manuals"), the Hospital Administrative, Infection Control, Dietary, and Lab Specimen manuals (all accessible through the "Helpful Links" menu on the right).   Additionally, the "Helpful Links" section has been updated and expanded recently to include resources for medication use as well as POE and MAK. You may also find the site index helpful in locating items.

The content of this site continues to expand thanks to feedback received from users. If you have questions or comments related to this site, please contact us.
