The RN’s practice is guided by the ANA Standard for Professional Nurse and Code of Ethics. The RN has knowledge of professional nursing principles, practices, concepts, and procedures as applied to the care of the patient population served. The RN records patients’ medical history and symptoms, helps perform diagnostic tests and analyze results, operates medical equipment, administers treatment and medications, and helps with patient follow‑up and rehabilitation.

The RN establishes or contributes to a care plan, including activities such as administering medication, managing IV lines, administering therapies, observing the patient, and consulting with physicians and other clinicians. The RN teaches patients and families how to manage illnesses, explain post‑treatment home care, diet, nutrition, exercise, and medication administration. The RN directs licensed practical nurses and nursing aides, delegates when appropriate, and supports clinical knowledge development.
