              • Teaching and counselling patients and their families on health-related issues in collaboration with other health care providers

              Similarly, occupational health nurses focus on developing and implementing employee health education programs and provide registered nursing care in private businesses and industry.

              Community health nurses:

              • Provide health education and registered nursing care in public health units and through home visits

              • Manage complex home care cases

              • Participate in community needs assessment and program development

              • Conduct disease screening and,

              Psychiatric nurses typically provide nursing care, supportive counselling and life skills programming to patients in psychiatric hospitals, mental health clinics, long-term care facilities and community-based settings.

              Nursing consultants provide consultative services to institutes, associations and health care organisations over issues and concerns pertaining to the nursing profession and nursing practice.

              Clinical nurses typically provide leadership, advice and counsel on the provision of research-based care for specific patient groups that are under the care of particular health care organisations.

              It is worth highlighting that registered nurses could specialise in areas such as:

              • Surgery

              • Obstetrics care

              • Psychiatric care

              • Critical care

              • Paediatrics

              • Geriatrics

              • Community health

              • Occupational health

              • Emergency care

              • Rehabilitation or,

              • Oncology

              The Employment Requirements

              The authorities require that registered nurses should have:

              • Completed a university, college or other approved registered nursing program

              • Additional academic training or experience for specialising in a specific area of nursing

              • A master’s or doctoral degree in nursing if they are clinical nurse specialists, clinical nurses, nursing consultants and nursing researchers and,

              • Registered with a regulatory body (this is mandatory in all provinces and territories)

              Similarly, the authorities require registered psychiatric nurses to have:

              • Completed a university or college registered psychiatric nursing program and,

              • Registered with a regulatory body (this is especially required in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon)

              Additional Information

              It is worth mentioning that the authorities would be regulating nurses trained exclusively as registered psychiatric nurses (RPN) in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. In all other provinces and territories, registered nurses (RNs) have the ability to work as psychiatric nurses without a separate registration.

              In addition, registered nurses and registered psychiatric nurses could progress to supervisory and managerial positions as they gain experience.
