Presentation

Published

Hi All,

I am hoping you can all help me, Allnurses have helped me in the past and I could do with a little bit of advice today!

I am currently in a secondment as an acute pain nurse at my trust and I have to reapply for my job hopefully making it permeant. I hate interviews and I have never had to do a presentation for a job.

I have been asked to create a presentation the question being

'how do you see the acute pain service developing in the future and what would be your contributions'

I have so many ideas but finding it hard to find the evidence to back it up.....

I really appreciate any help!!!!

Sorry but I don't really have any relevant input since I'm in the US - just an observation.... Acute pain signifies a serious underlying medical condition - requiring physician intervention. Unless you're in an advance practice role, nursing scope of practice would be very limited in this situation until the physician has determined a course of treatment.

Hi HouTx, Thank you for your reply, but the acute pain service is an advanced practice role that supports patients on the wards post op, supported by a lead physician. I have to create a presentation that supports the developement of this role and was hoping to get a bit of advice on here, but not sure if I have posted in the right section.

Have you tried any of the above? I appreciate a couple of them are Scottish but you may still be able to use them. Are you a prescriber? If so bring that in. If not point out that you would benefit from the course.

A short powerpoint presentation with 5-6 relevant slides and remember handouts.
