Clinical nurse specialists are expert clinicians with advanced education and training in a specialized area of nursing practice who work in a wide variety of health care settings. A clinical nurse specialists’ specialty may be defined by population (such as: pediatrics, geriatrics, women’s health), setting (such as: critical care or emergency room), disease or medical subspecialty (such as: diabetes or oncology), type of care (such as: psychiatric or rehabilitation); or type of problem (such as: pain, wounds, stress). Clinical nurse specialists provide diagnosis, treatment, and ongoing management of patients. They also provide expertise and support to nurses caring for patients at the bedside, help drive practice changes throughout the organization, and ensure the use of best practices and evidence-based care to achieve the best possible patient outcomes. What are the requirements to practice as a clinical nurse specialist in my state? State laws and administrative rules for nursing practice are issued by state licensing boards and they vary from state to state. Consult your state licensing board for specifics. In 2015, NACNS in collaboration with the National Council on State Boards of Nursing collected information on state laws regarding prescriptive authority and independent practice on CNSs.
