These
national guidelines are
part of the National Strategies for Health Care Providers:
Pesticides Initiative. The goal of the Initiative is to improve
the recognition, management, and prevention of health effects
from pesticide poisonings and exposures, by improving health
professionals' pesticide education, practice skills, and resources.
Dr. Andrea Lindell, Dean of the College of Nursing at the
University of Cincinnati Medical Center, co-chaired the committee
to create the guidelines for medical and nursing education.
Copies
of these guidelines are available in PDF format at www.neefusa.org/health/pesticides/index.htm.
Printed copies of the Guidelines are available in limited
quantities.
