Nurse interview for band 7

Published

I have a band seven interview with a ten minute presentation to make on the role and challenges a band 7 faces, on an Acute Assessment Unit.

I have no idea how to go about it

Ha hahahahahhaha.

I think it's safe to assume if we don't know what a band 7 is, we probably don't know what a band 6 is.

By coming here and essentially asking for people to create your presentation for you (without offering any of your own thoughts or ideas), you're really completely missing the point of it. Band sevens are meant to be managers, leaders, not getting their work done for them by strangers on the internet.

Think of what the roles and responsibilities are of a band 7, key performance indicators and focus around that.

Finance and recruitment is likely to feature along with motivating and leading teams in today's health care system.

Specific challenges around your particular unit will give reassurance you have insight into culture and challenges within that particular area.

Thank you XB9S for that. I read some of your blogs and got some ideas from there. However only seen it today and my interview was on Wednesday, but I got the post as a band Seven ward manager.

I guess the previous comments made me realise that I shouldn't get help from strangers in the internet...
