Otherwise, their access should be the same as that of other inpatient nurses (who use the MODEL IP NURSE Inpatient security class). How would you efficiently take care of this need?
Duplicate the MODEL IP NURSE Inpatient security class, and call the duplicate something like IP CHARGE NURSE. Add to the duplicate the desired security point. Link all of the charge nurses’ user records to this duplicate security class.
