The realm of healthcare is constantly changing with new technology, new research and new laws that all pertain to providing better care to patients. Because of constant change, the people who make healthcare organizations run effectively have to be adaptive to change as well and this is no different at Eastern Health. Your interviewer will be looking to hear that you keep an open mind in adapting to change and that you seek to understand why changes are being made so you can put them to use in your daily work life. Eastern Health values agility of its employees so much, they made it a core value of the organization. Make sure your example exemplifies your ability to be flexible and to adapt to change.

"In healthcare, the only constant is change and I have really experienced this during my 14 years of being a nurse. I knew that upon entering the field, my weakness was with technology and that has been one thing that has kept me on my toes during my career so far. A couple of years ago, a change in electronic health record systems was announced and rather than being mad about coming changes, I kept an open mind during the training sessions to see how the new system would positively influence my work. It didn't take long to see that the new system would make charting and pulling records much easier and more consistent so the time we spent training was going to be well worth it. After our go-live of the new system, I was very glad I kept an open and responsive attitude towards the new system."

"A couple of years ago, our radiology department implemented a new work scheduling policy that required all of the techs to work rotating weekend and evening shifts. Being that I had worked weekday shifts for over five years, some definite changes were required for me both on the job and in my personal life and I prioritized those changes right from the announcement of the new schedule. Being a team player, I had no problem with the new scheduling system and realized that for us to function at a high level, the changes were necessary."
