Hello allnurses,
I am an international student who takes the nursing class right before getting the program in PA in the United States. Since I am not good at interviewing foreigners and I am not sure where to go to interview a registered nurse for my assignment (due Oct. 30 2008). Therefore, I have looked around through internet and signed up for this wonderful website for help. As the assignment paper is supposed to be written by my own words, I need to get the answers to those questions below by Oct 20th 2008. The best way I get the response would be via Email. Thanks for your help and I appreciate your interest in student nurses.
The assignment I have is to acquaint students with other registered nurses who are already practicing, to introduce students to the responsibility of being a member within the profession, and to acquaint students with the process of professional socialization.
This assignment will be based on an interview with a professional registered nurse involved in the Health Care Delivery System. The questions like the below
1. What is the educational preparation of the nurse? Professional certifications? Additional certifications?
2. What is this nurse's role in the Health Care Delivery System?
3. Identify how the interviewee performs the 3 roles of the AD nurse.
4. Identify how the nurse utilizes the nursing process in practice. Provide at least one example.
5. How does this nurse demonstrate the basic concepts of nursing introduced in the first class?
6. What are the responsibilities of the nurse in his/her current role? How do the responsibilities of this nurse compare with your expectations?
7. What is the philosophy of the institution where the nurse is employed? How does the nurse's philosophy compare to that of the institution?
8. How have current trends in healthcare affected the nurse's professional experience?
9. What advice can you give me about pursuing nursing?
