"As an ER charge nurse, I anticipate overseeing nursing staff, handling patient and family concerns, liaising between staff, family, and physicians, monitoring patient care, and managing the unit flow. I know there are many responsibilities in this role and the ER setting is fast-paced, which is what I prefer. I am confident in my abilities to fulfill the obligations mentioned and any others that would be assigned."

"I have five years of experience in this role in the ER, so I'm very familiar with the traditional responsibilities of admin tasks, clinical team, care oversight, and liaising. I have also managed the scheduling and know that with the shortage of nurses right now, I will sometimes be required to work the floor and provide direct patient care, which is no problem. I looked over the job description, and all responsibilities listed are ones I have been in charge of in the past."

A charge nurse in the ER department wears many hats, and the interviewer would like to know that you understand what responsibilities and tasks will be required. Thoroughly read the job description to fully understand the role and the company-specific job duties and requirements. If you have questions about what you will be responsible for, ask at the end of your response.
I expect that my responsibilities will be a mixture of patient care and administrative/ leadership tasks. I expect to be a resource for the staff to assist with patient care and procedures when needed, as well as handling family concerns and staffing issues. I anticipate being the go to person on the unit and the major problem solver as well.
