The interviewer would like to discover more about your day-to-day responsibilities and duties. If you are coming from another healthcare organisation, it's likely similar to what would be required in the position with the NSH; however, it's important to describe in detail what your daily activities look like. Consider whether you spend time performing patient care activities, recording vitals, performing admin tasks, etc. Read the job description thoroughly, and discuss the areas of responsibility you have experience in and perform daily. Keep a positive tone as you describe what your current role entails each day, and refrain from complaining about certain duties or feeling overwhelmed by the day-to-day tasks.

"I have been in my role at the hospital for about a year. I work the day shift, so I help the other clinical staff get patients washed up and dressed, then prepared for breakfast and lunch. During meal times, I help patients set their trays up and I can assist with feeding if needed. During the rest of my shift, I help tend to the patients basic needs like moving around their room, or changing the station on the telly. If the clinical staff needs support, I can also help take patient temperatures, blood pressures, and blood sugar levels. Another major responsibility is to maintain patient records throughout the day, documenting activities and clinical observations."
