As a health care provider, nurses advise on preventive care, provide bedside nursing care, carry out medical regimens and help those who are ill on their road to recovery. They also plan, organize, and educate patients and their families as well.

A nurse delivers care from prevention to diagnosis, administer simple medical procedures and provide patient rehabilitation care. Nurses collect the physical, psychological and background data about a patient and provide the diagnosis to the primary caregiver. They draw up care plans and execute on these plans to ensure treatment goals are met. When providing direct patient care, nurses assist physicians during surgeries, treatments, and examinations. Some nurses specialize in a specific area of care such as emergency, pediatric, psychiatric, school, public health, midwives, and others.
