Hello, I am currently taking BSN classes and one of my assignments is to interview a community based nurse. I have talked to 4 people I know and they wont do it and then I called the health department and the nurses there declined as well. I hate that I have to infringe on someone elses time for MY assignment but I do not have much choice other than fabricating an interview and that is not something I want to do.

If anyone has time to do this that would be fantastic. You can leave off the name and place of employment and I will put "prefers not to answer". If you dont really want to post it here you can email me at [email protected]

Can anyone please help me?

3. What do you like most about the position? Least?

4. Describe a legal issue of concern to you in your practice?

5. Describe an ethical issue of concern to you in your practice?

6. How do you keep up with current nursing practices?

7. Do you utilize standards in your practice? If so, from what source and can you provide examples?

Any other comments?

Did you try home health or private duty pediatric agencies? They are definitely in the community. I doubt you want my answers as I'm not a BSN at this time

I have not tried those agencies. I thought I might try to call around some more tomorrow but after todays responses I am very discouraged. I do not need the nurse I am interviewing to have a BSN. I can interview an LPN for all that matters :)
