Nurses must stay up to date on how they work and thus be able to provide efficient information gathering to help the physician implement more effective decisions. They must also be familiar with the most up-to-date pharmacological protocols and, thus, monitor and prevent possible adverse effects. Paradoxically, programs that address the practical applications of these advances are not abundant in the educational landscape.
