Subject: Re: [MCOH-EH] pre-placement process

 

Hello all

As with many of our health care systems, we are asked to use resources wisely. I am interested in what you EHS does for pre-placement evaluations. We have traditionally had NP’s do the exams. We have the RN;s do the paper clearances for certain positions, with referral to the NP for red flags.

 

We are thinking about having RN’s perform the basic exam and defer to the NP or MD when there are questions.

 

Thanks,

Phil Adamo
