COMMUNITY HEALTH NURSING

Community Health Clinical Specialists assess and intervene in concerns of populations in communities. They may work with populations through federal, state or local governments, schools, or faith-based groups. A community health nurse is concerned with mobilizing and empowering the community to act on its own behalf in matters affecting health and well being.
