Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A primary care provider (PCP) may refer a patient to a medical or surgical specialist for further assessment, testing, or treatment. Nurses are often instrumental in initiating these types of referrals but do not complete the actual referral. Referral to a community agency is usually a collaborative action. Obtaining adaptive services and music therapy are independent nursing actions.
