Registered Nurse (RN) - Supervisor - Behavioral Health

MaineHealth Rockport, ME

Description Pen Bay Hospital Management/Leadership Req #: 86462 This is a Full-time, 40 hours a week, Day shift position. Unit Bio The Clinical Supervisor has decision making authority and is responsible for the coordination of the clinical management and safe delivery of age specific patient care throughout the hospital. Provides leadership and guidance to staff regarding care management through coordinating and collaborating with the interdisciplinary teams. Functions as a clinical resource and mentor to all patient care areas. Nursing expertise and clinical knowledge develop over time and are acquired through experience and exposure to different practice situations. Nurses must utilize multiple ways of thinking in order to cultivate the essential skills of clinical reasoning, critical thinking and clinical judgment. These skills will continue to develop as they progress through the stages of a career on their journey from novice to expert. Competence in these areas develops over a continuum and can be measured throughout each of these stages. The evaluator considers the expected stage of competency when rating the degree to which the nurse is performing. Stage 1: Novice Beginners, because they have no experience with the situations in which they are expected to perform, must depend on rules to guide their actions. Following rules, however, has its limits. No rule can tell novices which tasks are most relevant in real life situations. The novice will usually ask to be shown or told what to do. Stage 2: Advanced Beginner An advanced beginner is one who has coped with enough real situations to note (or to have them pointed out by a mentor) the recurrent meaningful aspects of situations. An advanced beginner needs help setting priorities since she/he operates on general guidelines and is only beginning to perceive recurrent meaningful patterns. The advanced beginner cannot reliably sort out what is most important in complex situations and will require help to prioritize. Stage 3: Competent Typically, the competent professional has been in practice two or three years. This person can rely on long-range goals and plans to determine which aspects of a situation are important and which can be ignored. The competent professional lacks the speed and flexibility of someone who has reached the proficient level, but competence is characterized by a feeling of mastery and the ability to cope with and manage contingencies of practice. Stage 4: Proficient This is someone who perceives a situation as a whole rather than in terms of parts. With holistic understanding, decision-making is less labored since the professional has a perspective on which of the many attributes and aspects present are the important ones. The proficient performer considers fewer options and hones in on the accurate region of the problem. Stage 5: Expert The expert professional is one who no longer relies on an analytical principle (rule, guideline, and maxim) to connect an understanding of the situation to an appropriate action. With an extensive background of experience, the expert has an intuitive grasp of the situation and focuses in on the accurate region of the problem without wasteful consideration of a larger range of unfruitful possibilities. (Adapted from Benner, 1984, pp. 13-34) Required Minimum Knowledge, Skills, And Abilities (KSAs) Education: Graduate of an accredited nursing program. License/Certifications: Current licensure in the State of Maine as a Registered Professional Nurse. Current BCLS with current ACLS or scheduled for an upcoming course. Current MOAB certification or scheduled for an upcoming course. Certification in Neonatal certification or scheduled for an upcoming course. Certification in ENCP or PALS or scheduled for an upcoming course preferred. Experience: Minimum of five current years in acute care practice preferred. Demonstrates a strong knowledge base and clinical expertise in multiple and diverse clinical settings.

Psych Nurse Education and Skills

The path to become a psychiatric nurse starts with completing either an Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from an approved program. An ADN takes around two years to complete, and a BSN takes around four years. You’ll then need to pass the NCLEX-RN exam and apply for your RN license. If you want to become a psychiatric nurse practitioner, you’ll have to complete further educational and licensing requirements. However, you can begin work sooner as a CNA or LPN/LVN.

After you have two years of RN experience under your belt, consider earning Psychiatric Mental Health (PMH) certification to demonstrate your competency in this specialty area. Nurse practitioners have the option to obtain PMHNP-BC certification.

Aside from clinical training, having a compassionate and caring nature is crucial when working with patients who have behavioral health issues.
