Throughout this process, specific phases of activity and events helped CNSs to identify what was required to achieve this goal. The resulting lessons learned are shared in this report. Statutory recognition of CNSs in Oregon occurred in 1999, and the administrative rules for CNS practice were published in 2001. These administrative rules delineate the CNS scope of practice and other aspects of CNS practice consistent with national standards.","PeriodicalId":145249,"journal":{"name":"Clinical nurse specialist CNS","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122207129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meeting the challenge of safe mobility for bariatric patients is a concern for many healthcare institutions. More than 20% of the adult population now has a body mass index equal to or greater than 30 and are classified as obese. Obesity is associated with many well-known health risks, including heart disease, metabolic disorders, and cancer. Nurses should be aware of these health risks, the interplay between mobility and health risks, and the national guidelines for treating the obese patient population. This article presents an overview of national guidelines for identifying, evaluating, and treating bariatric patients and identifies issues that create challenges to providing a safe environment for mobility among hospitalized obese patients.","PeriodicalId":145249,"journal":{"name":"Clinical nurse specialist CNS","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126918903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
