1) A nurse is examining different nursing roles. Which statement best illustrates an advanced
practice nursing role?

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 registered nurse who is the manager of a large obstetric unit or one who is a circulating
nurse at surgical deliveries (cesarean sections) is defined as a professional nurse, and has
graduated from an accredited program in nursing and completed the licensure examination.
2. A clinical nurse specialist working as a staff nurse on a mother–baby unit might have the
qualifications for an advanced practice nursing staff but is not working in that capacity.
3. A registered nurse who is the manager of a large obstetric unit or one who is a circulating
nurse at surgical deliveries (cesarean sections) is defined as a professional nurse, and has
graduated from an accredited program in nursing and completed the licensure examination.
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.
