Roxy Shortridge NRSE 6002 – 911 Dr. Sharon Bigger 26 September 2023 Discussion Board Module 3 Reflecting upon the documentary Crip Camp I have strong feelings. This documentary is empowering, and raw. Throughout viewing Crip Camp, I did feel a sense of anger and sadness at the injustice that those who are disabled have faced. Crip Camp shared an insight and experiences from the disabled young people and their journey. Crip Camp truly expressed how important that it is to advocate for one another. I resonated with this aspect of the documentary because in nursing we are our patient’s advocate. “As one considers the health care environment today, we have learned that the values, collaborative efforts, and practices of other health professionals are integral to achieving the outcomes of holistic nursing care.” (Frisch & Rabinowitsch , 2019). Many times, our patients cannot communicate their wants and needs so as the nurse or healthcare provider it is our duty to ensure that our patient’s needs are met emotionally, physically, and spiritually. To define what a grassroots effort is it is when the people of a certain region come together to make a change for an issue. Some of the grassroot efforts that have been taken in my issue and policy include the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) organization. This organization comes together to empower and assist veterans in navigating through the services and benefits that the veteran’s affairs offer. (DAV, 2023). The DAV also provides support groups to aid in the transition back to civilian life. Veterans receive care from the community

and within the department of veteran’s affairs. It is imperative as healthcare providers that we are aware of the available resources within our facility and community to assist our patients in receiving the best care possible. References DAV.
