The home healthcare nurse is not just a care provider but also a teacher and an advocate for the client and their family. The nurse may have to intervene to mobilize resources of the community or a hospital to provide patient appropriate care. Home health nurses have first-hand knowledge of the burdens of caregiving.
Registered nurses (RNs) provide and coordinate patient care, educate patients and the public about various health conditions, and provide advice and emotional support to patients and their family members. Registered nurses work in hospitals, physiciansâ offices, home healthcare services, and nursing care facilities. Others work in correctional facilities or schools, or serve in the military.
