Nurses in ambulatory care centers (walk-in clinics) provide technical services (e.g., administering medications), determine the priority of care needs, and provide teaching about all aspects of care. Nurses employed in hospitals have many roles, including manager of other members of the health care team providing client care, administrator, nurse practitioner, clinical nurse specialist, patient educator, in-service educator, and researcher. In physician's offices, advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs), nurse practitioners, midwives, or clinical nurse specialists work independently or collaboratively with physicians to make assessments and care for clients who require health maintenance or health promotion activities. Long-term care provides medical and nonmedical care for people with chronic illnesses or disabilities.
