Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Professional nurses teach, advocate, assess, and nurture. The IOM recommends that 80% of nurses have a minimum baccalaureate degree (not graduate degree) by 2020. Physicians diagnose and recommend treatments, and nurses provide the majority of these treatments. Lifelong learning is recommended, and some, not all, states require continuing education.
