Innovation in pediatric intensive care continues to improve outcomes for patients on an almost day-to-day basis. Your interviewers need to be assured that you would join their team as a PICU nurse who can handle changes in patient care and do so with an open mind and a willingness to learn and grow.

"Adapting to change is the one necessary constant in healthcare and I feel that I've done this exceptionally throughout my career. I've experienced an organizational merger early in my career, adapting to new equipment and upgraded EMR's and shifted duties within departments. For me, success in handling any changes with ease comes down to a mindset and a passion for patient care. Where a lot of others see change as disruptive and have a negative mindset, I look at change as a reason for improving. In most of the cases throughout my career, a new EMR or new piece of medical equipment means better patient care in the end and I dive in, learn and move forward in working with whatever is new."
