Likely interview questions for this role

Written from this job description, not a generic list. Each one notes what the interviewer is really checking.

About your past

Tell me about a patient with a chronic illness who kept getting readmitted. What did you try to do differently?

What they are checking: Whether they look at root causes like teaching gaps or access issues rather than blaming the patient.

What does critical thinking look like for you on a busy med/surg day? Give me a real example.

What they are checking: The posting stresses critical thinking, so this checks for a concrete story rather than a definition.

How do you work with CNAs and LPNs so that the whole team keeps up during a heavy admission day?

What they are checking: Teamwork and fair delegation, since this unit runs on a mixed RN, LPN and CNA team.

The posting calls this unit a launchpad for growth. Where do you want your nursing skills to be in two years?

What they are checking: Whether their goals fit a med/surg role and whether they will invest in learning here.

What would you do

Your diabetic patient's morning glucose is 52 and they're talking normally. What do you do?

What they are checking: Following hypoglycemia protocol right away and thinking about why it happened.

How do you decide when a change in a patient is worth calling the provider about on a day shift?

What they are checking: Clinical judgment about escalation, balancing real concern against unnecessary calls.

How do you handle a patient who refuses medications or treatments repeatedly?

What they are checking: Respecting autonomy while exploring the reason for refusal, educating, and documenting properly.

You get two admissions within 20 minutes while one of your patients is going downhill. What do you do?

What they are checking: Prioritizing safety and asking for help from charge or team instead of trying to do everything alone.

About the work

This unit cares for patients with long-term chronic illnesses and multiple disease states. How do you organize care for a patient with heart failure, diabetes and kidney disease at once?

What they are checking: Whether they can see how conditions interact, like fluid limits clashing with kidney dosing.

Walk me through how you'd safely give a dose of IV potassium.

What they are checking: Knowledge of high-alert medication safety, including dilution, rate and monitoring.
