Hello everyone I need some help with an assignment I have for my nursing class. There's questions that I must get from researching nursing threads and topics. And I'm asking this topic here because I need to get some feedback from experienced nurses. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Here are the questions and I would highly appreciate it if a nurse can answer them, sorry for the inconvenience.
1) What is the perception role of the registered nurse?
2) Has the perception changed since first entering into nursing?
3) In what areas do most nurses work on?
4) Was different types of communication needed in each specialty area? If, so how did the communication differ?
5) With whom do nursed communicate most frequently?
6) How important is communication in a nurse/client relationship?
7) What are some insights and tips that one can receive from a nurse to enhance communication with clients and others?
These are the questions and I would gladly appreciate if anyone can help me out. Thanks :)
Excellent. Let us know what you find out and how you did it! (We get asked these same questions so often but we never find out the answers!) You could also find your thread being cited when other students come with this same assignment!
I just interviewed a nurse with a lot of years of experience. It was a great experience thanks for the advice
Keep in touch with this nurse. Networking is EXTREMELY important in finding a job these days, and you'll want to stay on her radar for when you graduate and need to find a job. Or even sooner, if you'd like to get a job as a tech while you're in school. Good luck!
Bravo! Where/how did you find this nurse? What did she tell you that surprised you? What did she say that gave you something new to think about?
At Cedars Sinai. There was not much that she said that surprised me since I was kind of expecting a lot from her lol. One thing that made me think was when she told me that most hospital now in days only hire BSN's, so she adviced me to go for my BSN after I'm done with my ADN since that's where I'll be starting at.

She is the supervisor of a unit called Pre-Procedural Testing Program, and she's worker in a lot of specialities. She's definitely going in my favorite contact list lol
I gotta say that when I was a working nurse, I did not spend a whole heck of a lot of time contemplating "the perception of nursing". I was kinda too busy BEING a nurse and trying to get my work done and documented.
Specializes in Critical Care, ED, Cath lab, CTPAC,Trauma.
but these are students trying to grasp concepts. Many have never stepped into a hospital. The assignment isn't so much about content but about getting out there and seeing what it's all about.
