"In addition to keeping up with my continuing education requirements for nursing certifications, I also teach workshops and classes on childbirth to new parents. I have an open dialogue with my team to understand their learning needs and interests and create training plans to help them succeed."

I enjoy listening to nursing podcasts while I am driving, especially when I am short on time. Reading journal articles and watching webinars has also been super helpful. As a nurse manager I am required to have monthly staff meetings. At each meeting I choose a topic that I feel would be helpful to update staff on and create a short educational piece during the meeting. This helps me stay up to date on changes as well as keeps my team up to date as well.
