registered nurses
Licensed medical professionals
Registered nurses are healthcare professionals who have completed nursing education programs and passed licensing examinations that qualify them to provide patient care.
They assess patients, administer medications, coordinate treatment plans, and work alongside physicians in hospitals, clinics, and other medical settings.
The designation "registered" distinguishes them from licensed practical nurses and nursing assistants, who have less training and more limited scope of practice.
