Do you find it easy to gain the trust of others? As an LPN, what are some things you do to earn the trust of others?

"I find that the more years I work as an LPN, the easier it is to build trust-filled relationships with my patients, their families, and my co-workers. I show that I am trustworthy by displaying up to date knowledge, total kindness, and giving undivided attention."

Having a career in healthcare requires you to establish trust between yourself, your patients, their family members, and even your coworkers. The interviewer wants to know that you have an understanding of the importance of establishing trust and how you approach building this trust.

"Not everyone trusts easily. I believe it is better to under-promise and over-deliver. What I mean is, I would rather go above and beyond what has been asked of me rather than to tell a patient or coworker that I am going to do something and not follow through with it. Personal accountability is crucial in building trust with others."
