As a fertility nurse, your responsibilities center around caring for a variety of individuals seeking counsel and treatment pertaining to their reproductive health. Your duties include helping the patient understand contraception and pregnancy and creating a treatment plan tailored to their needs. You provide counsel during this time, help soon-to-be-parents understand the pros and cons of treatment options, and assist patients in various aspects of reproduction. In vitro fertilization is often the central aspect of the job, but you also help individuals with other means of reproduction, as well as those going through menopause. Your duties include following strict medical protocol during treatment.
