NUR 513 Introduction to Advanced
Registered Nursing
Topic 2 Assignment: Nursing Roles Graphic Organizer
Grand Canyon University (GCU)
Description:
Advanced registered nurses work in highly collaborative environments and must collaborate with
interdisciplinary teams in order to provide excellent patient care. Besides knowing the role and
scope of one's own practice, it is essential to understand the role and scope of other nurse
specialties to ensure effective collaboration among nurses, the organization, and other
professionals with whom advanced registered nurses regularly interact.
Use the "Nursing Roles Graphic Organizer Template" to differentiate how advanced registered
nurse roles relate to and collaborate with different areas of nursing practice. Compare your future
role with one of the following: nurse educator; nurse leader; family nurse practitioner; acute care
nurse practitioner; graduate nurse with an emphasis/specialty in public health, health care
administration, business, or informatics; clinical nurse specialist; doctor of nursing practice.
Indicate in the appropriate columns on the template which roles you are comparing.
Make sure to compare the following areas of practice in your graphic organizer:
