Question

The nurse must be sure the client meets eligibility requirements and is interested in the referral.The nurse must be aware of the payment mechanism that will be used for follow-up care so the client can be given names of community resources that are able to provide care on the basis of the source of payment.Contacting agencies about follow-up before the other actions with a client referral are completed is premature.Most agencies cannot provide free transportation and child care for clients to attend a different agency.It would encourage dependency for the nurse to make all the arrangements and then announce to clients what they should do.The client must be actively involved in follow-up care.
