Defining the Standard of Care
Written by
PRMS
Q. I know my patient care must always meet the standard of care, but how exactly is the standard of care defined and determined?
A. The exact definition of standard of care varies by state, but generally, it is the degree of skill, care, and diligence exercised by members of the same profession or specialty practicing in light of the present state of medical science. It is important to keep in mind that the standard of care does not mean optimal care, but includes a range of acceptable treatment options.
