Regular checkups will ensure that you get the correct advice which will help in taking care of your eyes and make you aware of the current condition of your eyes.

A common goal all healthcare providers share, is the desire to provide excellent patient care. The delivery of care is constantly changing in healthcare, however, the patient will continue to remain the focus of care. The success of nursing care thrives off the ability to fulfill patient needs and to maintain patient safety and satisfaction. When patients are admitted to the hospital, their need for an increase in their level of care and attention, due to the decline in their health status, and inability to preform normal daily activities of daily living. The loss of independence places the patient in a vulnerable state of mind, causing the individual to rely on members of the healthcare team to assist with basic self-care needs while in a stable and well-organized environment. A structured environment can be accomplished through the practice of hourly rounding on all patients.

‘Listening to how patients feel about their care and treatment is one of my personal priorities. Knowing that patients feel safe and are being given the care and attention they need makes me feel that I am doing what I can each shift to improve their care’ (National Quality Board, p72 2015).

My experience and skills are surpassed only by my enthusiasm to effectively meet the challenges before me. I am a highly capable, motivated, and energetic individual that enjoys working with others towards successful solutions. My leadership style incorporates motivation through positive feedback and support plus straightforwardness and open communication that builds trust and loyalty among my peers and patients alike. Throughout my personal experiences, education, and athletic career I have honed the ability to be a leader in times where others look for leadership. Leadership is not given; a confident, competent, and motivated individual takes leadership of a situation.

“Working in a Hospital everyday is a new situation, so it keeps you on your feet.You don’t know what type of patient you may come across everyday.You interact with patients daily and give them their medication a certain time according to the medication. Other tasks involve you giving the patient's chart to the doctors. Sometimes when I go with the doctors on their rounds, i have the opportunity to counsel the patients about recommended course of

Despite being thoroughly prepared to successfully complete my exams, I was too focused on getting the content, concepts, and analogy correct that I fell short by not effectively writing an answer under timed practice. I ran out of time on both of my timed exams, this particularly showed during my Con. law exam when my anxiety got the best of me. I had a panic attack, stopped working to take a time out, and hand wrote the remainder of the exam. At the time, I did not know my anxiety would transpire during a test, this was the first time my anxiety reached this height under

All staff meets briefly to make everyone aware of how many patients are booked; how many appointments are confirmed; and how many appointments are available. Staff is also informed of who will be out, who will be late, and what things need to be done if time permits, so that priorities for the day may be established.” (Schuman, August 2015)

I first developed an interest towards optometry due to its intimate interaction between doctor and patient. As a child, there was nothing more I disliked than going to the doctor’s office especially if I thought my eyes were going to get poked and prodded at. But after my first visit to an optometrist, I didn’t mind the doctor getting close to my eyes. The doctor was not only friendly but was reassuring and explained things in a way that I can easily understand. What I thought would be a horrifying examination was made pleasant and tolerable. Although the exam was no longer than half an hour, the experience I had in the exam room sparked my initial interest in pursuing optometry as a professional career.

Based on how many questions there are and the amount of time I am given to take the test, I will come up with “X” amount of seconds or minutes I should spend on an individual question. Once I answer each question in less than that amount of time, I will have the opportunity to go back and double check that my answers accurately reflect what a given question is asking of me. I will know for a fact that my plan is successful the moment I hand in my double-checked test with about five minutes before class ends. This way I will not feel any pressure to speed up or press for more time than necessary.

Whether the patient wants to discuss a tragedy in their life or their favorite television show, that conversation will be the most important thing I do during that shift.  Giving of myself to others gives purpose and meaning to my job.
