The Center helps persuade American Nurses Association to provide Internet access to the Code of Ethics for Nurses
June 10, 2002 -- Four months after receiving a letter
from the Center and professors from Johns Hopkins University School of
Nursing, the American Nurses Association placed the Code
of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements on the Internet.
This Code explains what nurses do, and it is useful to nurses and laypersons
alike. Our contact at the ANA acknowledged that the Center's letter had
helped persuade the ANA to make the critical document accessible to all.
