    General Description of the Job Class


    The Behavioral Health Rounding Nurse (BHRN) provides support and education to nursing staff to optimize care for patients with a wide variety of behavioral needs in non-Behavioral Health locations, including the medical and surgical floors, Clinical Decision Unit (CDU), Obstetrics (L&D, 4-3), Critical Care Unit (CCU), and the Duke Rehabilitation Institute (DRI, 7-3).

    They are considered the first-line respondent for behavioral concerns in non-behavioral health settings for both emergent and routine issues. One way to think of the BHRN is as an adaptation of the ENIT (Early Nurse Intervention Team) Nurse.

    While the ENIT provides bedside access to staff specializing in managing medical emergencies and proactively intervening in patients with changes in medical conditions, the BHRN has an analogous role in behavioral emergencies and changes in behaviors.


    The BHRN is both a member of the Nursing staff, as well as a member of the Psychiatry Consultation-Liaison team (alongside the Psychiatrist and Behavioral Health Case Manager), and functions as a liaison between the two.

    The support and education they provide is through various interventions, including proactively rounding on certain at-risk patient populations; responding to consultation requests from nursing through a Behavioral Health Nurse consult order; leading Behavioral Emergency Responses; and offering spontaneous education and support during rounding.

    The BHRN may recommend Interdisciplinary Behavioral Rounds for optimizing care on specific patients with behavioral needs. Some additional, non-clinical responsibilities of the BHRN include completing suicide screening, restraint audits as well as restraints education
