The Registered Psychiatric Nurses (also known as RPN) may work independently or as part of the multi-disciplinary health care team, which includes psychiatrists, physicians, nurses and clinicians. Under the direction of a Physician and the Nurse Supervisor, the RPN is responsible for assessing, planning, implementing and evaluating patient care. They provide evidence-informed, trauma informed, culturally sensitive, person-centered and recovery-oriented nursing care to patients and their care providers.

Some of the duties they will perform include completing health history and mental status assessments, administering and assessing the effects of medications, responding to observed behavioral changes and implementing strategies to promote optimal mental health, physical health, and overall well-being of their patients. The RPN may also provide education on a range of mental health and addiction topics to a variety of audiences and provide assistance in the evaluation/assessment of client-related physical health problems, issues and questions.
