Public Health Nurse II
1 month ago
Under general supervision, to apply systems-level thinking from knowledge of nursing, social, and public health sciences to provide professional public health nursing services in diverse settings, including homes, clinics, hospitals, schools, and community settings as required by the assigned program area.
Distinguishing Characteristics
The Public Health Nurse II classification is the journey level in the Public Health Nurse classification series. Public Health Nursing is a specialty practice within nursing and public health.
The Public Health Nurse II classification is distinguished from the Public Health Nurse I classification in that the Public Health Nurse I is the entry-level classification with no or limited public health nursing experience, while the Public Health Nurse II is experienced, has the skills, knowledge, and ability to assess the needs, opportunities, and inequities of individuals, families, and populations and translate this assessment into actions at all levels that impact health, and is assigned responsibilities that are more complex and varied. Public Health Nurse IIs receive less direct supervision, work with more independence, are expected to be knowledgeable of the community and its resources, and may serve as a lead to assist Public Health Nurse Manager I or II to supervise, train, and evaluate staff.
The Public Health Nurse II classification is distinguished from the Public Health Nurse III classification in that Public Health Nurse IIs normally carry a full caseload while Public Health Nurse IIIs perform special assignments requiring more complex health assessment, analysis, and evaluation techniques and frequently act in a consulting capacity. In addition, the Public Health Nurse III may provide oversight of a programmatic area within the Public Health Department.
Bilingual (Spanish, Vietnamese, Mandarin, and Cantonese) candidates are encouraged to apply. If you speak a second language fluently, specify the language located under Agency-Wide Questions of the application.
