Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

It is important to have a physician's order for a TDP because it is a medical treatment that requires a licensed healthcare provider to authorize and supervise its administration. The nurse's assessment and treatment selection may inform the physician's decision to order a TDP, but it is not sufficient on its own to start the treatment. Contacting the patient's insurance carrier is also a separate process that does not directly affect the initiation of a TDP.
