What are the job responsibilities of a nurse?

In: Nurses [Edit categories]

Answer:

Answer

The job responsibilities of a nurse like any job will vary according to role and specialist area. Nurses now take on extended roles and nursing jobs not just in purely clinical environments but right across industry and commercial settings.

You only have to look at sites such as http://www.healthprofessionals.co.uk to appreciate the variety of settings nurses now work within.

What is common to all 'job responsibilities' is the notice of accountability. A nurse is accountable to a set code of practice. In the UK, the professional body that dictates standards and police breaches is called the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). Their website can be found at www.nmc-uk.org.uk.
