Hi everyone, I have to say this website is great! I'm hoping some of you nice people out there can help me out. I'm graduating in a few months and I've got my interview for a new graduate nursing job next week! EEk very nervous! Anyways, I'm trying to think of possible questions I can be asked and am preparing answers. I'm told our questions will be centred around infection control, quality control, and we will have a few scenario questions. Basically the questions will be centred around the Australian Nursing competency standards, if anyone is familiar with these. I hear the questions are pretty basic, the interviewer is looking to hear we are competent and will practice safely. I've come up with a list of possible questions, but am struggling to think of some more, particularily patient care/scenario questions. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm not looking for answers, just basic scenario/occupational health and safety questions that I can prepare mock answers to prepared :) Anyways, a few of the questions I have thought up include: -What would you do if you came on shift and a patient's IV was running too quickly -What would I do if a patient was complaining of chest pain -What would I do if a patient was SOB -What would I do in the event of a needle stick injury -How would I deal with difficult nurses, doctors, patients ,etc Any tips/possible questions are much appreciated! Cheers!
