A. Schuyler, NP: Nurse Practitioner: The RN is there for your protection, to be a chaperone, so that there is no appearance of impropriety.
A. Schuyler, NP: Nurse Practitioner: A provider is not supposed to perform an examination without a chaperone in the room.
A. Schuyler, NP: Nurse Practitioner: It isn’t possible to examine someone wearing clothing.
