Frequently Asked Questions (Certified Legal Nurse Consultants) Janice M. Hansen, RN, BSN, CLNC, National Nurse Consulting (NNC)

Frequently Asked Questions


We try to anticipate questions you might have about our services and provide the answers here. If you need additional information please send an email to legalnurse.hansen@gmail.com


1.

What is a National Nurse Consulting CLNC®?

We are registered nurses who have successfully mastered the rigorous CLNC® Certification Program developed by the company that pioneered the field of legal nurse consulting.  NNC's professionals have the expertise to quickly pinpoint and interpret medical and nursing issues in any case involving health, illness or injury.


2.

Why should I use a CLNC® and not an MD?

Cost-effectiveness!  National Nurse Consulting's nurses have constant, face-to-face patient contact and extensive experience in the "trenches" of the healthcare system and can educate attorneys about a wide range of basic medical issues.  Our gained experience allows us to focus on relevant and pertinent information to the case in a time efficient way without sacrificing analytical accuracy, saving you time and money otherwise spent on expensive medical experts.


3.

Why do I need a CLNC® when I already have a Paralegal?

Though paralegal's play a vital role in assisting attorneys, they simply do not have the medical training, clinical experience, or the insider's knowledge on the inner workings of the medical system that an RN does.  In today's complex healthcare climate, it is imperative to have on your team someone with education in science and medicine who will successfully decipher the information and nuances that will deliver optimal results.

Nurses Notes: DAR and SOAP(ER) Formats - Associated Content from Yahoo! - associatedcontent.com

When it comes to nurse's notes most student nurses are up in arms on exactly what they should be writing. A focal note should be one of the easiest tasks to chart, but many students still find themselves struggling. There are different styles when it comes to writing nurses notes and you will eventually come to find a method that better suits your needs or department.

SOAP (ER) format is a common used style for nurse's notes because they are easy to understand by all medical staff. The (ER) is also included but not always applied.

Subjective Data: This section of the nurse's note should include a description of your patient based on what your patient has told you.

Example: Pain Assessment, Data that pertains to verbal statements that cannot be collected during a physical finding.
