Patient-centered communication is vital for the fellows of any Nurse Fellowship training program, and your interviewers want to know that you are a great communicator. They want to hear that you have strong verbal and written communication skills when communicating with patients, providers, fellow nurses, and your entire patient care team.

Before your interview, think about your communication strengths. Come to your interview prepared to talk about what makes you great at communicating with patients, colleagues, and support staff. More important, make sure to explain why solid communication skills are vital for any nurse and Nurse Fellow. If you have received any formal feedback on your communication skills throughout your career, now is a great time to mention that feedback.

"My communication skills with patients focus on education and compassion. I treat every conversation with the utmost respect, no matter the nature of it. I am also a very focused and open communicator with my team. I am very comfortable and open to working with physicians and APP staff. On my nursing team, I have the ability to take control and lead others when necessary. On my most recent performance review, I was commended for my ability to clearly communicate discharge instructions to patients and their family members."
