Interview Project-- help!

Hello, I am new to this group and am a first year nursing student. I need to interview an upper level nursing student and was wondering if someone on this group could help me... I would really appreciate it. Thank you in advance!

Here are the questions:


  2. What do nurses do?
  3. Are there any specific skills that they need to perform their role?
  4. Do you see nursing as a profession or an occupation? (For the nursing student and nurse only)
  5. Why did you decide to become a nurse?
  6. What is the most exciting part of the nurse's practice?

    There are 3.3 million RNs in the US - go find one and interview them in person. Posting a homework assignment of this type here is likely NOT what your instructor had in mind. Esp. the student part- fgs you're IN nursing school- find an upperclassman!

    OY....

    As a nursing student, you share the building with many other nursing students- including those who are upper level students. Chances are, they had this very same assignment and should be willing to pay it forward and help you out. Just get out of your comfort zone and ask!

    Your instructor probably wants you to interview one of the upperclassmen at your school. Not some random person on the internet.

    Thanks for the feedback everyone, I have a considerate amount of social anxiety so the thought of coming up to a random stranger and asking to interview them was very daunting.... but after your replies I sucked it up and approached an upper classman. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be, she was very nice and helpful.

    You're going to have to do this on an almost hourly basis as a nurse. Good for you!

    See? You pushed yourself out of your comfort zone and it paid off. It will continue to pay off in the future because you're going to have to communicate with a lot of people you don't know- patients, their families, that doc on call you've never met, the list goes on.
