1. Purpose and Editorial Mission
Nurses Near Me provides clear, transparent, and medically accurate information to help families in Kolkata, Agartala, and surrounding regions make informed decisions about home healthcare. We believe patients and family caregivers deserve objective, evidence-based health guidance free of sensationalism, deceptive marketing, or unverified claims.
2. Mandatory Doctor Prescription Standard
In strict adherence to the Indian Medical Council Act, the Clinical Establishments Act, and State Nursing Council regulations, Nurses Near Me enforces a non-negotiable prescription policy:
- Nurses do not diagnose illnesses, prescribe medications, or alter existing drug dosages.
- Injections, IV infusions, and specialized wound dressings are administered exclusively upon presentation of a valid, signed prescription from a registered medical practitioner (MBBS/MD/MS).
- Prescriptions must clearly record the patient name, drug generic and brand name, exact dosage, route of administration, and doctor registration details.
3. Authoritative Evidence & Sourcing Guidelines
Our editorial team and clinical reviewers rely exclusively on peer-reviewed, authoritative medical institutions for references, including:
- Indian Nursing Council (INC) — Clinical practice guidelines and educational frameworks.
- West Bengal Nursing Council (WBNC) & Tripura Nursing Council (TNC) — State registration protocols and procedural scopes of practice.
