  Here is a link to a formal job description for a CPN
  https://jobdescriptionandresumeexamples.com/community-psychiatric-nurse-job-description-example/
  
  ‘CPNs work outside hospitals and visit clients in their own homes, out-patient departments or GP surgeries. They can help you to talk through problems and give practical advice and support. They can also give medicines and keep an eye on their effects.’
  
  Hope this helps.
