Career Resources
Gynecology is the branch of medicine dealing with the diagnosis
and treatment of conditions affecting the female reproductive and pelvic
organs.
A gynecology nurse assesses patient health problems and needs, develops
and implements nursing care plans, and may assist with gynecological procedures.
A gynecology nurse typically administers care to patients in an inpatient,
surgical or outpatient setting.
Gynecology nursing is practiced by nurses who have specialized formal,
post-secondary education and who function in highly autonomous roles.
