  6. Establish constructive relationships with veterans and their families to promote positive relationships and learning as established by the treatment/teaching plan.
  7. Document incidents with or without adverse effect to the veteran and refer to RN for follow-up and/or investigation.
  8. Foster the Veterans Home's mission, vision, and operational policies while maintaining regulatory and department compliance with Joint Commission and state/federal regulations.
  9. Maintain personal and professional growth by attending in-services, keeping current with healthcare trends and nursing practices, and other Veterans Home committees.
  10. Skilled in the use of computers as needed for the completion of work assignments.
