experts in evidence-based nursing practice within a specialty area, treating and managing the health concerns of patients and populations. The CNS specialty may be focused on individuals, populations, settings, type of care, type of problem or diagnostic systems subspecialty.
CNS practices autonomously and integrate knowledge of disease and medical treatments into the backssment, diagnosis, and treatment of patients' illnesses. These nurses design, implement and evaluate both patient-specific and population-based programs. CNS provides leadership in advancing the practice of nursing to achieve quality and cost-effective patient outcomes as well as alternative solutions that address system
problems and/or patient care issues. In many jurisdictions, CNS's, as direct care providers, perform comprehensive health backssments, develop differential diagnoses, and may have prescriptive authority, (but prescriptive authority is not mandatory).
Prescriptive authority allows them to provide pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments and order diagnostic and laboratory tests (associated with one's specialty) in addressing and managing specialty health problems of patients and populations. CNS serves as patient advocates, consultants and researchers in various settings. Specialty Practice: The context for Clinical Nurse Specialist practice may be defined by: population (pediatric,
geriatric), type of problem (pain, wound management), setting (critical care unit, operating room), type of care (rehab, palliative), or disease/ pathology/medical specialty (diabetes, oncology).
