As a Band 6 nurse, you have many years of training and experience as a registered nurse and may also have more specialized training than a Band 5 nurse. At this point in your career, you should feel confident enough to train nurses who are newer to the profession if that is something that interests you. Some nurses prefer to solely provide patient care throughout their careers, while others enjoy teaching others. If you are asked this question during your interview, it will have been specified in the job announcement that this is one of the job duties. Describe what experience you have training others. If you do not have prior experience training other nurses, explain that while you have no previous experience, you feel ready for this due to your expertise in educating your patients over the years.
