Today Lacey is talking all about how to build relationships with providers as a new nurse. Working with providers can all be really intimidating when first starting out as nurses but the truth is they really need you just as much, if not more, than you need them! Lacey shares her best tips and practices for shifting your mindset when talking to physicians and gaining comfort in building rapport and relationships with your team so that you can give the best patient care possible! 

Topics include:

• Perspective shift, realizing providers are humans too 
• How to deal with confrontation
• Ways to build rapport with providers
• When to escalate or report a negative experience with a provider
• Using the SBAR system (Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation) to communicate 
• And more! 

Remember - they are your teammates that have been training differently from you! You are smart and worthy of sitting at the table with any provider! What you bring is important and they need your assessments and skills there, too!
