What role does a nurse not fulfill in medication management?

In the context of medication management, the role of a nurse does not include prescribing medications. Nurses are trained to participate in and assist with medication management, but their responsibilities are centered around administration, monitoring patient responses, and educating patients about their medications.

Prescribing medications is typically within the scope of practice for doctors, nurse practitioners, or physician assistants who have the authority and training to make decisions about the medical treatment of patients. Nurses play a critical part in the medication process by ensuring that prescribed medications are administered correctly, but the act of determining and writing prescriptions falls outside their role.

In contrast, supervising patient care, advocating for clients, and evaluating client care are indeed within the responsibilities of a nurse. They ensure that patients receive appropriate care, serve as a voice for patients' needs and preferences, and assess the effectiveness of the treatments being provided.
