Overview: Psych Nurse Jobs

As a psychiatric nurse, you’re likely plenty familiar with the prevalence of mental health issues in this country:

An estimated 1 in 5 adults have some type of mental illness.
An estimated 49.5% of adolescents have had a mental disorder.
An estimated 6% of adults have had a serious mental illness.

If you’re looking for psych nurse jobs, there are opportunities for advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs), registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical/vocational nurses (LPNs/LVNs), certified nursing assistants (CNAs), and certified medical assistants (CMAs). Start searching Credenza today for full-time, part-time,contract,temporary, or per diem openings.

Psych Nurse Education and Skills

The path to become a psychiatric nurse starts with completing either an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from an approved program. An ADN takes around two years to complete, and a BSN takes around four years. You’ll then need to pass the NCLEX-RN exam and apply for your RN license. If you want to become a psychiatric nurse practitioner, you’ll have to complete further educational and licensing requirements. However, you can begin work sooner as a CNA or LPN/LVN.

After you have two years of RN experience under your belt, consider earning Psychiatric Mental Health (PMH) certification to demonstrate your competency in this specialty area. Nurse practitioners have the option to obtain PMHNP-BC certification.

Aside from clinical training, having a compassionate and caring nature is crucial when working with patients who have behavioral health issues.
