Short Description:

Registered Nurses treat and educate patients, and they provide advice and support to patients and their family members. They record patients’ medical histories and symptoms, help to perform diagnostic tests and analyze results, administer treatment and medications, operate medical equipment, and help with patient follow-up and rehabilitation. They also teach patients and their families how to manage their illnesses or injuries, including post-treatment home care needs. Some RNs may take a leadership role in patient care, directing licensed practical nurses and nursing aides as part of a health care team.
