What does RNCC mean in NURSING

To become an RNCC, you must have a current license as a Registered Nurse in your state as well as at least two years of experience in nursing. Depending on what type of care coordination you plan to provide, additional certifications or degrees may be required.

An RNCC assists patients in navigating and understanding the healthcare system by providing guidance, support, education and coordination of services. The duties also include coordinating medical appointments, scheduling tests/procedures and facilitating referrals to other providers as needed. Additionally they will serve as advocates for the patient's rights while motivating them to take action towards their individual health care goals.

An RNCC is able to work with you to create a customized care plan that takes into account your individual needs and preferences when managing your chronic condition. They will educate you on how to best manage your symptoms while connecting you with any appropriate resources that can improve your overall health outcomes.

No; although they may recommend certain medications or treatments based on their assessment of the patient's condition or needs, only physicians can prescribe medications for their patients. An RNCC is not allowed to physically administer any kind of medication or treatment either—they are only responsible for coordinating these processes between doctor visits or hospitalizations.
