I posted this on the community health nursing board but have not received any respond so I thought that I would ask you guys over here also. I am currently taking a Community health class in NS and was given the assignment of interviewing a Community/Public health nurse. If anyone would answer the questions(there are only a few) it would be awesome and greatly appreciated. Thanks!


    • How long have you worked in your present position?
    • What activities do you undertake in the position? What is a "typical" day like?
    • How were you prepared for the position? Any special education or training?
    • How do you focus on the "community as client" rather than an individual?
    • Do you consider health promotion and disease prevention activities important in your position? Why or why not?
    • How satisfied are you with your role?

have you called the local Health Dept and asked for an interview? If you are professional and honor their time you might be able to get good information.

For my community nurse interview, I was allowed to use an elementary school nurse. Try calling your local school nurse and see if she'll talk to you. They're usually happy to.

Thanks for the ideas!
