Wyoming Area Health Education Center:"Registered nurses (RNs) care for patients, and promote their physical, mental and social well being. The duties performed by RNs include: monitoring patient status and progress, assisting the physician in care and rehabilitation, administering medication, and advising patients and their families on preventive health care measures. State laws and specific employer restrictions specify exactly what a registered nurse is allowed to do on the job. The title of registered nurse encompasses a wide range of specialties, among the: hospital nurses, office nurses, home health nurse, nursing home nurses, public health nurses, occupational health/industrial nurses and head nurse/nurse supervisor. Specialized training or experience may be necessary for some of these positions. The main difference among them, however, is simply the setting and/or members of the community toward which registered nurses choose to direct their skills. For registered nurses, seeking advanced practice there are also opportunities to be come a certified nurse-midwife (CNM), certified registered nurse anesthetist (CRNA), clinical nurse specialist (CNS) and nurse practitioner (NP)."
