Hi All,
I have been an Oncology RN for over 4 years now, in my current position I work as an infusion RN at an Outpatient clinic. I am being asked to take verbal orders for chemo and enter them and also to modify current chemo orders that are entered and adjust their doses or instructions.
I have never been asked to do this before and I was always trained that it is not within the RN scope to take verbal orders for chemotherapy period, whether it is oral or not.
Can't find anything in the ONS handbook, wondering what you all think or know off hand? Thanks for your help!
