Hi Carol, I just wanted to let you know you have been one of the biggest help throughout my 3 years of training as a student nurse. Your valuable tips helped me pass my assignments and structure my personal statement. I have secured a job interview for a AMU (acute medical unit) post as a NQN and I have minimal information regarding on what to expect, do you have any good tips I could use for this post? I appreciate your videos very much and hope to continue my professional development with your help.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, I'm glad they help and I wish you all the best in your interview. Most of the tips and potential questions are in this video but think about Acute Medical Assessment unit and the types of care/pts. If you can do a informal visit it would be good if you have not been on placement. Revise your A-E assessment as you assess, treat, and investigate patients with acute medical conditions. Also maybe basic ECG rhythms and basic applied physiology e.g. renal system and CNS. You may have to describe what you would do if a patient deteriorated e.g. their Glasgow Coma scale score decreased. You may not have any of these questions but worth revisiting escalation policies and then broader areas such as patient confidentiality, consent and patients who refuse care/ mental capacity assessment. I hope that helps.
Thank you Carol it was lovely to see you deliver an online lecture for Swindon students Oxford Brookes. Thank you again for answering my question on that day.
This is really helpful! Thank you for sharing your knowledge :) I have an upcoming interview as Nurse practitioner which is a band 6 role. I have 10 days left to prepare for the interview and a short 5 min presentation. Can I ask you something? It says to prepare a presentation on my perception of the role of vascular nurse practitioner within the trust. is it asking me of what I think the responsibilities are or what I think of the role?? I hope you get where my confusion is hehe. Thanks so much and more power to you, Carol!
Thank you for taking the time to feedback Louella. If asking for your perceptions of the role, you will need to reflect the job description in some way to give a view of the role & you could also summarise what the national literature/ guidance says about the role perhaps. I have a video on how to prepare a presentation for interview too as you'll need to be focused on the key points, as you don't have long to present. You could perhaps ask for clarification from interview lead if you're unsure. Wishing you all the best in your interview Louella!
@@carolforde-johnston Thank you for responding, Carol! I appreciate it so much. I will do what you said. And like what you said in your other video, PREPARATION IS KEY TO SUCCESS! Thanks so much!
