Chapter 1 Contemporary Maternal, Newborn, and Child Health Nursing
1) The nurse is examining different nursing roles. Which statement best illustrates an advanced
practice nursing role?
1. A registered nurse who is the manager of a large obstetric unit
2. A clinical nurse specialist working as a staff nurse on a mother-baby unit
3. A registered nurse who is the circulating nurse at surgical deliveries (cesarean sections)
4. A clinical nurse specialist with whom other nurses consult for this nurse's expertise in caring
for high-risk infants
Answer: 4
Explanation: 1. A RN who is a nurse manager is not required to be an advanced practice nurse.
RNs may have a high level of education but are not considered an advanced practice nurse by the
American Nurses Association definition. They are not managing the primary care of a patient.
2. The clinical nurse specialist is an advanced practice nurse but is not working in that role when
in the clinical nurse role at the bedside.
3. The registered nurse working as a circulating nurse is not required to have an advanced
degree. The role of the circulating nurse is a specialized role but does not require a higher level
of education like the advanced practice nurse.
4. A clinical nurse specialist with whom other nurses consult for expertise in caring for high-risk
infants would illustrate an advanced practice nursing role. This nurse has specialized knowledge
and competence in a specific clinical area, and is master's-prepared.
