interview questions for psych. nurse?


I am a registered psychiatric nurse in England and I am about to commence interviews for nursing positions in BC.

What types of questions am I likely to come up against.

I have reviewed the BC mental health legislation, is there anything else worth brushing up on.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You may find it helpful to review different classes of psychiatric meds and their side effects, CBT, concurrent disorders, etc. You may be asked about what your interventions will be on certain psychiatric emergencies.

Good lucK!
