What is an entry level nurse RN?

Entry Level Nurse RNs are registered nurses who are new to the nursing profession, typically having recently graduated from an accredited nursing program and passed the NCLEX-RN exam. They work in a variety of healthcare settings, such as hospitals, clinics, or nursing homes, providing direct patient care under the supervision of more experienced nurses or physicians. Their responsibilities include monitoring patients, administering medications, assisting with procedures, and educating patients and families about health conditions. Entry level RNs are expected to continue learning on the job and often participate in orientation or residency programs to build their skills and confidence.
