What are the educational, licensing or certification requirements for a Registered Nurse?


What is the scope of their practice? What are their profession鈥檚 primary responsibilities?

Agree with Perspective's post above. Also check out your's state's board of nursing and state statutes regarding nursing.

hope this helps a bit

Each state has different requirements for becoming an RN. In general, it's at least a two year course at a trade school or college and you need to pass a state test. Responsibilities are determined by the facility they are employed.
