"I think the biggest challenge for me would be learning a different patient demographic. This clinic serves a very large Hispanic population due to the location, so learning their needs and trying to learn Spanish will be a challenge, but it's one I'm sure will reap great rewards."
One major challenge that I have experienced when starting a position as a new nurse manager is getting buy in from the unit staff. Staff are often skeptical of new managers making it difficult to implement changes on the unit. Once I break through those barriers, I am confident I can improve patient outcomes on the unit.
