Holston Valley Hospial Work Values

Daily Duties at Holston Valley Hospial :

I combined clinical expertise and a passion for teaching in the hospital setting to prepare and mentor current nurses. I was responsible for aiding in strengthening the nursing workforce, serving as a role model and providing leadership needed to implement evidence based practice. I created a positive learning environment and provided learning opportunities for the healthcare interdisciplinary team and identified the competencies that facilitate team functioning. I provided practical guidance on developing learning goals and objectives and developed strategies to help staff learn about hospital policies and procedures. I was responsible for researching and dealing with sentinel events, designing courses to correct and to prevent them. I provided general competency courses, as well as ones specialized for specific areas. I oriented new staff at appropriate levels, from new grads, to nurses in new areas, to specialists coming into their own area but new to the facility. I taught staff how to be good mentors and preceptors, recruiting staff to help teach classes. I researched evidence based studies to update policy and procedures in house to maintain state of the art care. I provided cost analysis studies, justified budgetary needs and prepared and presented departmental budgets to the hospital.

What they like about Holston Valley Hospial :

Working in an organization that is technologically advanced, creative, and innovative is critical in your assessment of hiring companies. Less important to you are stability of the organization, the length of time an organization has been in business, and the business' plans for the future. You prefer a fast-moving company that will take risks to achieve its goals and objectives. The length of time the company has been in business is irrelevant. Maintaining status quo is unnecessary. You thrive on change, uncertainty and the upside of potential business risks, especially those associated with innovation. Stability for the long haul is not nearly as important as is working in an atmosphere that is charged with a sense of urgency and constant change.
