The registered nurse (RN) coordinates nursing care, including direct patient care, patient and family education, and transitions of care. The RN supports professional nursing practice across settings and throughout the continuum of care to meet patient and family needs. Within Mayo Clinic’s Nursing Professional Practice Model, the RN is accountable for planning, implementing, evaluating, and communicating all phases of nursing care for assigned patients, using the ANA Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice as a basis for practice. The RN provides leadership through precepting, formal and informal leadership roles, and quality improvement efforts. The RN delegates care according to skill level, experience, patient acuity, fiscal accountability, and available resources. Strong communication, mentoring, and teaching skills are important; the RN may also participate in committees or projects. A subset of employees may be required to drive a personal vehicle as part of the role.
