Give an example of a time when you were under pressure as a junior nurse? How did you respond at the time and afterwards? What may be examples of stressors experienced in Intensive Care Nursing (for example: patient in emergency situation, increased heart rate, shock and so on)?

Nursing Leadership and Management Introduction Nurse handoff communication during shift change is one of the most frequent, though key, nursing duties which provides the basis for delivering safe, reliable care (Eggins & Slade, 2015). Study results reveal that ineffective nurse communication at the time of patient handoff is the main reason for sentinel events (Drach-Zahavy & Hadid, 2015; Eggins & Slade, 2015). Together with National Patient Safety Goals (NPSG) for improving efficacy
Future of Nursing Technologies are advancing and evolving all of the time. A century ago, people were just beginning to install electric lights in their homes and learning how to use telephones.
