Nursing

A nurse is a licensed healthcare professional who provides direct patient care, clinical assessment, and ongoing support across a wide range of medical settings. Nurses monitor vital signs, administer medications, perform essential procedures, and coordinate with physicians and interdisciplinary teams to ensure safe, effective treatment. They play a central role in patient education, advocacy, and care planning, helping individuals manage illness, recover from injury, and maintain long‑term health. Nursing practice spans preventive care, acute care, chronic disease management, and specialized clinical services.
