"Yes, I most certainly consider myself a compassionate person. I take the opportunity to understand and help others whenever possible. While attending university, I spent a lot of time volunteering at a local hospice - not only for the added experience but also to give back to others. I look forward to continuing this level of compassionate care with your organization."

I understand that compassion is key to patient-centered care and I have been described by many coworkers as a warm-hearted nurse that shows a lot of empathy and patience for her patients. I am a great listener and try to give my patients time to verbalize their needs physically and emotionally whenever needed.

Excellent answer! It sounds like you have the perfect personality to be a nurse. :) If you can think of an example to include here that shows how compassionate you can be, that would further strengthen your response.

I consider myself a very compassionate person. My personal values align with those at Sharp as I aim to exceed patient expectations and treat more than just their physical conditions. With every patient interaction, I want to ensure patients and their families feel supported and like I am doing everything possible to ensure their well-being and that they are being cared for and listened to.
