AbstractThe first three articles in this series will concentrate on the issue the legal 'duty of care'--the terms of which we as nurses have to understand. The first article examines a recent decision of the High Court of England and Wales that discusses and examines directives and protocols. I have begun with a discussion of the fact that a duty of care not only extends from healthcare providers to patients (clients) but also from employers to employees, and between healthcare providers themselves.
