An interventional radiology nurse practitioner (IRNP) works in the radiology department to assist interventional radiologists with diagnostic imaging for each patient. As an interventional radiology nurse practitioner, your duties and responsibilities focus on helping the radiology team with explaining the procedure to patients as part of their treatment plan, gathering necessary information from patients, communicating with radiology staff about patients and procedures, monitoring patient progress, educating patients about after-care and future steps, and writing prescriptions, if necessary. IRNPs have verbal and written communication, interpersonal, critical thinking, problem-solving, assessment, and technical skills and excellent attention to detail.
