This is a PRN position. How do you stay sharp and current when you're not on the unit every week?
What they are checking: Whether they take responsibility for keeping skills and policy knowledge current despite irregular hours.
Tell me about a time you taught a patient to manage side effects at home. How did you make sure it stuck?
What they are checking: Whether they teach in a way patients understand, such as teach-back, rather than just handing out sheets.
Describe how you use evidence to change something in your nursing practice.
What they are checking: Whether they apply evidence-based practice in daily care instead of doing things a certain way because it has always been done.
What would you do
A patient a few minutes into an infusion starts flushing, gets short of breath and says their chest feels tight. What do you do?

About the work
Walk me through what you check before you start a chemotherapy or biotherapy infusion.
What they are checking: Whether they follow a careful verification process, because errors with these drugs cause serious harm.
How do you assess and care for a central line or port in an outpatient setting?
What they are checking: Whether they know line care and infection prevention well enough to protect immune-compromised patients.
A patient's lab results come back with a low ANC right before treatment. What's your next step?
