Hello my name is Guadalupe. I am a nursing student in Wisconsin. And I have an assignment when I would have to interview a nurse and create a power point. If any nurse is interested in helping me out with just answering a few questions that would be great. I could send you the assignment and also give you further information if necessary. Thanks have an amazing day !

I will give you the standard answer that has been given to the thousand nursing students with the "I need to interview a nurse" post.
The purpose of this assignment is to meet with a real nurse in person. While this is a nursing website, there is no way of knowing if the person you are interviewing is an actual nurse. If you don't have someone in your personal life that is a nurse, then try your family doctor's office or go to your local hospital's cafeteria, there should be plenty of nurses and someone will be willing to talk to you.

Welcome to AN! The largest online nursing community!
Check with your local schools for their nurses. Check with the public health nurse of your city/town/county. The thing about these assignments is that your instructors want you to go outside of your comfort zone. The interview for nursing assessment is am important skill. You will interview your patient with every admission and every assignment you will care for a stranger yet they need to feel comfortable with you and you need to know how to talk to a stranger.
Face to Face is best.
