The Psychiatric Nurse also collaborates with clinical and case management staff to coordinate care and assist in patient treatment planning.

As a Psychiatric Travel Nurse, you should be prepared to perform the following tasks:
  • Conduct intake assessments through interviews with patients and relatives to gather case history, and complete physical and mental health assessments
  • Observe and report patient behavioral changes. Assist patients in understanding the nature of emotional disturbances and accepting the need for treatment.

Psychiatric Travel Nurses should be able to stand and walk for long periods of time, carry up to 20 pounds of weight, as well as bend, lean and stoop without difficulty. Moving or lifting of patients may require lifting of up to 50 pounds at times.
