The nurse is usually responsible, along with other health care professionals, for the treatment, safety and recovery of acutely or chronically ill or injured people. A nurse also cares for the health maintenance of the healthy patient and treatment of life-threatening emergencies in a wide range of healthcare settings. Nurses may also be involved in medical and nursing research and perform a wide range of non-clinical functions necessary to the delivery of health care. Nurses are also instrumental in providing care during the birthing process and death.
