Healthcare is a very dynamic field, and nursing is no different. Nurses work in a lot of different areas, not just at the bedside. The interviewer wants to see if you have thought about long-term career goals and stay updated on what is happening in the field.

"I am very interested in technology and how it integrates with health for more positive patient outcomes. As a result, one area of nursing that has caught my eye is nursing informatics. There are many different things you can do in nursing informatics, like engineering or brain mapping. Though I would wait a few years after graduating, I would be very interested in pursuing coursework in this area."

One nursing trend that catches my eye is telehealth. The services for telehealth increased dramatically during the pandemic, which helped many patients get medical treatment when they weren't leaving their homes. Telehealth has become a valuable tool in bringing healthcare to underserviced areas. With telehealth growing rapidly in a short period of time, security and privacy issues have to be addressed. Telehealth has its share of pros and cons, but moving forward, telehealth, with a combination of in-hospital visits, may be the optimal way to treat patients.
