This qualitative study used reflexive thematic analysis to examine PHNs\u2019 roles, contributions, and capacities related to planetary health practice in public health departments. Semi\u2010structured interviews were conducted from October 2024 to February 2025 with 30 participants, including 13 PHNs, 11 public health leaders, and 6 community\u2010based organization representatives across 10 U.S. states. Participants described a spectrum of PHN engagement in planetary health work, ranging from active practice to unrealized capacity. Four interrelated themes described mutually reinforcing dimensions of PHN practice relevant to planetary health: ethical and justice\u2010oriented responsibility, trust\u2010based relational care, bridging clinical and population health, and translating environmental data into action and advocacy. Across participant groups, PHNs were described as trusted community partners able to integrate clinical insight with systems\u2010level public health action. These capacities were enacted to varying degrees across public health department contexts. Leadership support, workforce development, and organizational alignment may strengthen integration of these capacities into routine public health nursing practice.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/phn.70179","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,7]],"date-time":"2026-09-07T05:18:08Z","timestamp":1788758288000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Public Health Nurses\u2019 Contributions to Planetary Health Practice in Public Health Departments: A Qualitative Study"],"prefix":"10.1111","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2420-8482","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jessica","family":"LeClair","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing University of Wisconsin\u2010Madison  Madison Wisconsin USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Block","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Nursing University of Utah  Salt Lake City Utah USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5461-1320","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Te\u2010Lien","family":"Ku","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Pharmacy University of Wisconsin\u2010Madison  Madison Wisconsin USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9034-2746","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Betty","family":"Bekemeier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Nursing University of Washington, Seattle  Washington, D.C.
