Abstract
Standardizing guidelines could save money, reduce risk and harm, and provide simpler means to measure outcomes. It takes effort for providers to agree on a standard. Literature review, collaboration, and persistent nurses informed Providence women's clinics to agree on one test despite no conclusive recommendation on which gestational diabetes screening method is best (Caughey, A. & Turrentine M., 2108). Though it took 8 years, clinicians worked hard to agree on a measure that would save time and money.
