ER candidate

Hello to All,

I have been a nurse for over 5 years now. I have med/surg/trauma experience in level one trauma facility. My most recent experience is in the level II area of the hospital which also cares for monitored surgical patients. I am now wanting to move on to another facility and actually I have an interview at a level two facility in the ED department. I am excited about the interview because I want and need this job. I need all the info that I can get to prepare my for the interview. Some questions that I have are how are patients assigned, how long is the typical orientation period for a experience nurse but with no ED experience, what are some things that I can brush up on to better prepare myself for this interview?

Thanks.

Ask about required certifications, how is scheduling handled, how are breaks covered, pt load and how load is affected by pt acuity, ED boarding policy, are there residents, how are psych pts managed, is there presence of security as well as real police, and what kind of pt does the ED usually care for. Managers also love it when you ask about evaluations. How often will my performance be evaluated? How will I know how my performance is?
