Introduction My Preferred Nursing specialty is psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP). Mental health is a fundamental component of health care. PMHNP play a vital role in psychiatric medicine to improve health care access. Mental health concerns are typically ignored owing to a lack of understanding or scarcity of professionals to handle the cases. PMHNP will help to close the gap between psychiatric service need and availability. In addition to serving as educators, PMHNP also must be skilled relationship builders and collaborators. Comparison of two Nursing Specialties At a bedside that there have been significant misconceptions about mental health so that individuals are quick to deny sign &symptoms owing a fear of being stigmatized and victimized as a PMHNP, I will use the professional background to change the misconception and present mental health as an integral aspect of health care. overall, I feel the being PMHNP will allow me to practice where I am most needed as a nursing profession. Psychiatric nurses from strong therapeutic bonds with their patient& patient’s families, they also work closely with other medical professional to track the progress of patients.
