Hi i'm a student who is thinking about going into the field of nursing. For my Intro to Nursing class we have an assignment to interview a nurse. The interview helps us gain insight into the nursing field and wether or not it is a field we want to go into. Here are the interview questions. If a nurse could please help, I would greatly appreciate it.
1. Discuss the knowledge, skills and attitude necessary in the nursing profession. For example communication skills for a skill that is needed in the nursing profession.
2. Give a specific example of using that knowledge, skills and attitude on a given day in your practice as a registered nurse. (Tell me a short story about an experience you had where you used your skills as a nurse, your knowledge about nursing, and attitude towards nursing)
3. Describe how the following competencies are important in nursing practice:
Patient centered care: how is a focus on the patient important vs being focused on the self rather than the patient?
Teamwork and Collaboration: How are teamwork and collaboration important in nursing practice?
Evidenced-based practice: How are practices based on evidence important in nursing practice?
Quality care: why is quality care important in the nursing field?
Safety: how is safety important in the nursing field?
Informatics: how is knowledge about technology important/helpful in the nursing field?
4. What advice can you give to someone who is contemplating nursing as a professional career choice?
Cheers!
