Re: What "CNL" means to the field

I've always what would happen if a CNL moved to my town and sought a job as a CNS. In my state, CNS roles are not limited to people who are certified as CNS's or people who can do "physician externder" technical skills, etc. Any nurse with an MSN can often get a CNS-type job if he/she has an MSN in the clinical specialty. I have wondered what we would do with a CNL applicant. I suspect we would hire her into most roles that other MSN's with a clinical specialty would qualify for. (e.g staff development, program coordinator, CNS, undergraduate clinical instructor, etc.)
