Evaluation Of A Reflective Reflection

I give this movie a six out of five-star rating. How it managed to keep me on the edge of my seat the entire time is beyond me; I am still in disbelief that I was fully engaged for the entire two hours and twenty-six minutes. Although I had heard many great things about the novel, the film exceeded all of my expectations. The Natural teaches many valuable lessons about perseverance, determination, commitment, karma, relationships, and staying young at heart.

The aim of this assignment is to analyse the use of safe and effective prescribing which occurred in the student health visitors (HV)’s area of practice under the supervision of the practice teacher. The case study will be developed on the seven principles of the prescribing pyramid (NPC, 1999) and Driscoll model of reflection will be used to reflect on the prescribing scenario. In accordance with the Nursing and Midwifery ‘s professional code of conduct (NMC, 2015) confidentiality shall be maintained. Hence mother will be known as Debra and baby knows as Ella.

Issues and dilemmas highlighted by this incident Management issues Several management issues where highlighted by the incident. The analysis will focus on record keeping, effective communication, risk management and ethical issues. The day to day management issues affecting nursing practice such as record keeping, effective communication and risk management do not operate in isolation but are frequently interdependent and affect each other. The central focus will be on the observed failure by the night duty nurse to record or pass on information on Mark’s report. The Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust (2009) policy on record keeping states that a record of an event must be made immediately or within 24 hours of the occurrence. The rationale for this requirement is that an immediate record of

While implementing Primary Health Care models, identical to those in metropolitan areas, in a rural setting is not practical, I feel there is an obvious need to improve primary health care in remote areas. This is due to the significant health gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, in rural and remote areas

Studies show nurses play a very important rule of teaching the patients; especially improve patient’s knowledge about the medications (Bradley et al., 2012). Nurses are responsible to educate the patient about the purpose of every medication and their side effects. It is also necessary to tell them some alterations to the medication list (Bradley et al., 2012). The purpose of teaching the patient is to help them understand how the medications benefit them. In this way, they will become more compliant. In addition, it is important for the patients to know how the medications work. For example, they need to hold the some blood pressure pill if they have low blood pressure. There is another example shows nurses successfully improve patient’s condition through medication education. The study by Van Camp et al. (2012) investigated how nurse-led education and counseling enhance medications adherence in chronic dialysis patients. The medication is called phosphate binder that prevents the patient from absorbing phosphate in the food. The study showed “the mean adherence group increased from 83% to 94%, phosphate values decreased from 4.9 to 4.3 mg/dl and the knowledge of the medications increased by twenty percent” (Van

In the critical analysis of this article, it is apparent that information technology influences today's modern society in the aspects of leadership. From there, it is indicated that the information has strengthen leadership of business due to the access for the internet. As this idea has been proven true, some companies have used this technology to their advantage. For example, research has discovered that this company recently decreased in profit and stock because the competition that had not been evident in the past has showed face. There are many ethical and moral decisions to be made with drugs are available in health care facility. As department manager, a set of procedures and protocols regarding the handling, storing and monitoring of drugs is necessary to ensure the safety of the patients and employees. Within this set of procedures, generic drugs, controlled drugs, and all charting is necessary so that all drugs can be documented in order to keep track of everything and to keep all employees honest (Pamela Anderson, 2010). This is because no medicine is without side effects and some are worse than others."In any situation where care-workers are responsible for the looking after and giving of medicines to other people, be they young or old, healthy or sick, it is important to follow a set of general principles to ensure that this is done safely. In some ways this is similar to the way in which we follow a set of principles or rules in connection with the use of

How do your critical factors align with the roles that were portrayed by your IPPE-3 Clinical Instructors throughout the past two weeks? What specific activities did you engage in during IPPE-3 that capitalized upon your critical factors?

Guidelines in our nursing practice must be accompanied by knowledge, critical thinking, and clinical reasoning based on scientific rationale (why’s), (things that are learned) in order to be effective, in the areas of quality and safe patient care. Nursing implications; are also important, the nursing-related consequences of something (a disease, a medication, a procedure), but the things which may occur which are up to the nurse to understand about the medication the nursing-related consequences of something (a medication, a procedure).

Looking back at project 3, I felt very happy with the essay I produced. I am not one to enjoy writing since I usually do not feel very confident in my writing. I felt the work I produced through project 3 was one of my best. I put a lot of effort into this essay and it showed in my final draft. With this being said, after comparing my essay to the rubric I gave myself a 3.64 overall on this project for many reasons. This essay in no means was perfect, but I learned from my strengths and weaknesses.

The first stage of Gibbs (1988) model of reflection requires a description of events. I was asked to administer a drug to a patient named in hereafter as Mrs. A for confidentiality purposes (NMC 2008).I had observed this clinical skill on a number of occasions and had previously administered medication under supervision. On this occasion I was being observed by two qualified nurses, one of which was my mentor. The drug had been dispensed and was ready to be administered and Mrs. A consented to have a student administer the medication. My mentor talked me through the procedure step by step, and informed me that they have struggled with Mrs. A and her compliance with medication before so I should keep an eye and ensure that she swallows her medication and that she does not keep it her mouth.

This semester I learned a lot about writing in English 151. It has been a roller coaster ride with these essays for me this semester. I learned step by step how to write a good essay and how to have your readers be engaged in what you’re trying to tell them. Each essay I did has taught me something valuable I can take to the next level of English. I feel as if as the semester went by I did not take my writing that seriously and that reflected in my grades I received in each essay. It made me a better student and writer and it will reflect next semester. In this essay, I will reflect on what I learned throughout this semester that you should apply in your writing when you begin English 151.

For the last six weeks in both mental and acute setting, I have reflected on events that I had met in each week. Now, I am going to identify essential personal learning outcomes from those events and will include personal awareness of strengths and weaknesses. Among the different models of reflection, I will use the Gibbs model of reflection which entails six stages such as description, feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusion, action plan.

Your summary was easy to follow and provided the overview I needed to understand the subject and main events. The positive economic incentive used to stimulate improvement failed, as it did not compensate for the gap left when America removed God from education. While most teachers would probably follow the guidelines of their administration and would understand the rational provided, the need to be compensated must have been stronger. I would recommend the school system consider an external review process and instituting feedback directly from the teachers and parents together to an impartial board.

Clinical practicum has provided a valuable study opportunity to me.When I took care of a living person in wards,I could apply the skills which are learnt from indoor lessons in school and books.Also,I could achieve more knowledge outside textbooks.However,I find that there is a difference between the real situation and theory.In ward,nurses have to be multitasking and need to manage several patients,time is precious to them.Nurses have to make an effort to save time from different ways.To give an example,in the ward I worked in this clinical practicum,nurses connected the syringe to the end of tube and administered drug to a patient with nasogastric tube by giving pressure to pump drug solution down the tube.Thus ,the procedure finished in a few seconds.I learnt this method from them and applied it in my practice.However,I was stopped by the supervisor teacher during one of my practise.She told us that it was wrong to administer drug by using pressure.She then asked me for the right method.I was shocked in that time because I learnt this way from the

The theory of nursing discipline has been adapted from various discipline such as which acts a bridge which focuses on providing complete healthcare to patient. Hence, Nurses are taught the basics of those disciplines and are well diverse in them as well. For example, when a patient gets admitted to the ward, it is the nurse who assess the patient’s condition to assess and identify the need for the involvement of other disciplines like dietitian, speech therapist, physiotherapist, occupational therapist, medical social
