Abortion interview questions

Hi, I have a job interview tomorrow for a termination clinic for people who's fetuses won't survive. I just want help on questions they could possibly ask? I don't need to hear views and arguments just need help with interview questions. Thanks
Also, can nurse practitioners work there?

A lot of their questions will probably be what any interviewer would ask.

As for NPs, how the holy heck would we know that information? Why don't you ask them?

Well, I'm sure they will ask you if you're pro-choice/pro-abortion. That's kind of a no-brainer. They will probably ask why you want THAT job. It takes a unique skillset, mentality and personality to be able to work in an abortion clinic. They may ask if you have experience in working with women during an IUFD. They may ask about your skill level at starting IVs. Assuming the position assists in the termination procedure, they may ask what your experience is in L&D and OR, both of which is relevant experience for second trimester termination.

Regarding your question about NPs, I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. Are you asking if NPs or APNs can perform abortions? If so, yes, in some states that is within their scope of practice for surgical abortions. For medical abortions (which wouldn't be happening in the second trimester), yes.
