TI  - Challenges in the perinatal clinical nurse specialist role.
PG  - 99-101
AB  - Evolving changes in health care trends and national directives, including 
      recommendations from the Institute of Medicine (1985), are shaping priorities in 
      perinatal nursing care. This paper addresses considerations for expanding the 
      scope of practice of perinatal clinical nurse specialists (PCNS). The role of the 
      PCNS in the participation of healthy policy implementation is one area to 
      activate. Legislative action involving perinatal nurses influences the scope of 
      practice. Expansion of the clinical nurse specialist roles in 
      consultation/education and practice/research is necessary to emphasize 
      preventative health care, program development, and community liaison activities.
