Interview with an RN for a class assignment

Published

Hello everyone,

I am required to interview a registered nurse (preferably master's-prepared) for my class assignment. I'd be really greatful if somebody is willing to help me with this.

Thanks in advance !

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These are the points I have to cover during the interview (I am not required to identify my interviewee by name or even by specific location/employer). But I need to identify whatever the role function is of the interviewee.

The interview should include the following, but is not limited to this information:

  • What is the role and its main functions?
  • What is the role title and position description?
  • How did the interviewee choose this role?
  • What educational preparation is required for the role?
  • What is the setting in which the role is enacted?
  • Are there role conflicts or "turf" issues within the organization, and if so how are they handled or resolved?
  • What are actual or perceived barriers to practice or innovation?
  • Are there any special skills that are needed to lead or influence others on the care team or within the organization?
  • How are patient outcomes tracked or reported, so that the value of this advanced practice role contribution can be identified?
