nhs professionals interview

[joolsc]

I am a uk qualified nurse (qualified for 15 years). I have just relocated from Norfolk and have applied to join the NHS professionals as there doesn't seem to be many jobs at the moment. They have offered me an interview but I have been told I will also have to do a 2 hour competancy exam including drug calculations. Does anyone know anything about the exam??? Is it multiple choice. 2 hours seems a long time seen as they haven't given me any clue as to what they might test me on. Any advice would be gratefully received.

Thanks, Jools.

Hi there I have been asked to do the same test and all I can find on the internet about it is your thread. Have you sat it? How bad was it and are there laods of drug calculations?:)

my sister is an interviewer for NHS professionals. she tells me the exam is very simple and straightford. They are looking to see if you are safe and can do drug caluclations- nothing you wouldnt do in everyday work. Its not meant to trap you or fail you. They want you to pass! so dont worry about it too much.

she tells me when she is interviewing, she is looking for safety and competency.

hope that helps and good luck.
