Job Description
Description

Distinguishing Characteristics
The Clinical Nurse I classification is the entry level classification in the Clinical Nurse classification series. The Clinical Nurse I is distinguished from the Clinical Nurse II in that the Clinical Nurse I is a graduate nurse or registered nurse (RN) with limited nursing experience. Incumbents work under close supervision of another registered nurse, providing only routine and general patient care assignments within well-defined guidelines.

The Clinical Nurse classification series is distinguished from the Public Health Nurse classification series in that the Clinical Nurse classification series works directly with individual patients or a defined patient assignment, where patients are injured, ill, or in life-threatening situations requiring nursing interventions, whereas the Public Health Nurse works in clinics, homes, and community settings caring for the health of the population to prevent disease and improve population health.

The Clinical Nurse classification series differs from the Psychiatric Nurse classification series in that the Psychiatric Nurse classification series works in mental health hospitals and clinics providing psychiatric and nursing interventions.
