Psychiatric nurses work as registered nurses to care for and support patients who have mental disabilities. Though this is a role as typical in its caregiving responsibilities as any other registered nurse, there is a special level of skill required to care for those with psychiatric needs.Psychiatric nurses evaluate the needs of their patients, and they administer treatments and therapies that allow these patients to function as normally as possible. Nurses in mental health develop care plans in response to the needs of their individual patients. They work in conjunction with the doctors on staff to develop a treatment plan that is right for each of their patients, and these specialized nurses ensure that this plan provides some sort of relief and functionality.Psychiatric nurses may work in a support role, but they still must be well-versed in patient care for a variety of different mental disabilities and dysfunctions, and they must be able to provide fast and efficient nursing care for sometimes dangerous patients. They may be required to deal with crisis intervention and treatment, particularly for those patients who require special observation or for those that are on suicide watch.Psychiatric nurses may administer medications, usually under doctor’s orders. They must be able to quickly deal with and assess the needs of the patient and to develop solutions, treatments that may need to fluctuate rapidly if the patient’s mental state changes. Psychiatric nurses may be involved with developing psychiatric care programs; educating other nursing students, doctors, and patients and their families; and and balance these functions with direct patient care. These nurses often teach those in entry-level positions, such as technicians, how to properly care for the patients within their facilityDuties
