Mental Health and Psychiatric Nursing
Psychiatric-mental health nursing requires a wide range of nursing, psychosocial, and neurobiological expertise. PMH nurses promote well-being through prevention and education, in addition to the assessment, diagnosis, care, and treatment of mental health and substance use disorders.
Psychiatric mental health nurses (PMHNs) are registered nurses with specialized training that help assess, address, and monitor mental health and behavioral conditions. They may work with individuals, families, groups, or communities.
