Psych nurses may treat a variety of mental illnesses or focus on specific age groups or disorders, such as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, PTSD, dementia, substance abuse, or eating disorders. They’re experts in crisis intervention and work closely with their patients to help them manage their mental illnesses and live fulfilling lives.

Which certifications are best for psychiatric nurses?

Some healthcare employers may prefer psychiatric nurse job candidates with Psychiatric Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist (PMHCNS-BC), Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse (PMH-BC), Verbal Intervention (CPI-VI), Nonviolent Crisis Intervention (CPI-NCI) or Nonviolent Crisis Intervention with Advanced Physical Skills Training (CPI-NCI Advanced), and some may even require specific professional certifications.

How does having a Verbal Intervention (CPI-VI) increase my value as a Psychiatric nurse job candidate?

Having a Verbal Intervention (CPI-VI) validates your knowledge and skills as a psychiatric nurse and your dedication to continuing your education in your chosen field. All of which makes you a more desirable job candidate to healthcare employers.
