What Is A Medical-Surgical Nurse?
As the largest discipline within the nursing profession, med-surgical nurses are known to be patients’ conductors, comforters and caretakers. They wear several hats in their role and carry incredible responsibility for a vast patient base. As a medical-surgical RN, you provide care to hospitalized patients that require a wide variety of duties since no two patients are alike.
Medical-Surgical Nurse Job Duties
Some of the responsibilities of a medical-surgical RN include:

- Monitoring vital signs
- Adjusting specialized medical equipment as needed
To work as a med-surg nurse, you are required to have at least an associate’s degree in nursing and two years of nursing experience.

Medical-Surgical Nurse Salary & Job Outlook
