The Right (and Wrong) Way to Ask Questions as a New Nurse Practitioner

When you're a new nurse practitioner, you need to make thousands of decisions a day.

(Which usually translates to thousands of questions).

I made mistakes as a new grad, and luckily for me, I had a very patient colleague who was there to help guide me.

In this video, I'll share:
- Some of my mistakes (I'm a little embarrassed)
- Three easy steps to make sure you ask questions the right way (so you get the answers you're looking for and build and maintain your colleague relationships)

Leave me a comment below, what are some of the strategies you use to collaborate with your colleagues and supervisor?

Liz, You said something that is similar to my situation. I have a wonderful collaborator and I don’t know if it’s because I’m new but I ask so many questions and on each patient. Like you said there is the right way to present the case and doing leg work.

You are amazing! Love your videos! ❤ I start my next clinical rotation which I am so nervous for. It’s my last clinical semester so I will see 14 patients which is expected of us. Any videos particular on this? Thank you mentor Liz. I do want to be part of your mentorship.
