"I think any person joining a new team faces an initial challenge of getting to know their team members and leaders and then starting to build a trusting relationship with each quickly. It's important to tackle the learning aspect from a technical standpoint but also make sure you focus on building relationships with new team members as in this role, you'll be working so closely with one another in high-pressure situations. I plan to come in with a positive attitude that shows my new team that I'm excited to join their team, learn from them, and work together to achieve common goals of caring for patients in their critical time of need."
