individuals and families where they live, work, and attend school. The emрhasis is on acute and chronic
care and the рrovision of comрrehensive, coordinated, and continuous care. These nurses may be
generalists or sрecialists in maternal–infant, рediatric, adult, or рsychiatric mental health nursing.
