I don't think this position exists. However this is the language used in a recent advertisement for a Medical Staff Bylaws Attorney.
Do you think hospitals and other organizations should have nursing staff bylaws? You want to talk about leveling the playing field, then this is the way to do it in healthcare.
Afford individual nurses the same due process rights and privileges afforded to individual physicians in the workplace.
Medical Staff Bylaws Attorney
At least ten years experience in providing advice and counsel to Hospital medical staffs and other peer review bodies.
