I am in need of several brave souls who would like to answer interview questions. There are 12 total, please remember these were assigned to me, I did not write them. Some of the questions and requests may seem redundant, you won't need to answer all 12, only those that apply to you/your specialty. I'm looking for a clinical administrator, APN, certified-nurse midwife, CRNA, staff nurse, clinical nurse specialist, and a research nurse. I thank you all in advance for your time, thoughts, and support.

  4. Describe the roles of different nurses in promoting safe and quality outcomes of care for diverse populations.

  8. Describe a patient care initiative in you r organization that improved outcomes and enhanced cost effectiveness in care delivery.

  11. Describe a particular situation in whic you have been involved with roles and responaibilities of a major healthcare regulatory agency that affected patient care quality, workplace safety, healthcare reimbursement, or the scope of nursing practice.
  12. Compare nursing practice roles for the registered nurse, clinical nurse leader, advanced practice, registered nurse, and clinical nurse specialist in your clinical setting. Describe specific differences in their duties, knowledge, and abilities.
