In my previous role, I successfully coordinated a team of LVNs, ensuring they adhered to their schedules and met all clinical responsibilities. I implemented a tracking system to monitor patient care activities and provided regular feedback to improve performance. My approach included conducting regular team meetings, addressing any issues promptly, and ensuring compliance with all regulatory requirements.

I believe in addressing conflicts promptly and fairly. I first listen to all parties involved to understand the root cause of the disagreement. Then, I facilitate a constructive dialogue to find a mutually agreeable solution. If necessary, I involve higher management or HR to ensure the issue is resolved professionally and in accordance with company policies.

I focus on continuous education and training for LVN staff to keep them updated on the latest best practices and protocols. Regular performance evaluations and feedback sessions help identify areas for improvement. Additionally, I encourage a culture of open communication where staff feel comfortable reporting any concerns or suggesting improvements to patient care.

I use a combination of software tools and manual oversight to create balanced schedules that account for staff availability, patient needs, and peak times. I ensure there are adequate backups and floaters to cover absences or high-demand periods. Regularly reviewing and adjusting schedules based on feedback and performance metrics helps maintain optimal patient care.

In a previous role, I introduced a new policy requiring LVNs to document patient care activities in real-time. I conducted training sessions to ensure everyone understood the new procedure and its benefits. I also provided ongoing support and addressed any concerns promptly. The implementation was successful, leading to improved documentation accuracy and patient care.
