Abstract

Introduction: The importance of preserving life, maintaining patients’ health as well as supporting fair and ethical functions of health care worker call for determining legislations that clarify terms, responsibilities and obligations of physicians and nurses. Within the former Iran Penal Code physician was known as the absolute guarantor, contrary to the presumption of innocence.

The new Penal Code (1392-2013) has allocated 4 material (158, 495, 496, and 497) to set up rules governing the work of physicians and nurses and their responsibilities. The absolute physician’s responsibilities have been degraded in the new Penal Code. For example, the clause 1 of Article 496, which is discussed in this article, nurse is recognized as the absolute guarantor in the case of patient harm resulting from physician errors that was done by informed nurses. Mandate expressed in the clause 1 of Article 496, may cause tensions, dereliction of medical orders by nurses, serious complications for patients' health and lead to job insecurity nursing profession. In this article, we discussed about clause 1 of Article 496 to understand it and recommend solutions for the future.
