Observation In Health And Social Care

After observing my mother in at the emergency room where she works, I finally understand the difficulty of being a doctor. Doctors constantly having to take care of anyone who walks through the door on a stretcher. Doctors have to try their best to feel empathetic towards everyone, putting themselves in other people’s shoes and trying to understand their situation. Whether they are good or bad, it doesn’t matter, the main goal is to stabilize the patients and make sure they receive the help they need. For example, last night walked in a psychopath who had killed 3 people, who also stabbed himself in attempt at suicide. By some miraculous move by God he didn’t die, only required immediate medical attention. As I watched my mother operate

The two very different service users that I observed are one female and one male with very different medical problems that needed to be handled with care, compassion and understanding.

My observation locations are Starbucks and restaurant. I chose them as my observation location because those are the places where people normally talk, study, socialize and interact in a casual manner.

The place of observation took place at my work, before I clocked in for the day. I work at Oakwood Methodist Preschool/Daycare. I went in to the daycare at about 9:00, which is just free play/ breakfast time in the infant room. The infant room I observed in was a little different than the CDRC, because the infant room is from 7 weeks old to 18 months old. There was not really a place for me to be

I am a nursing student from Australian Catholic University. This role play is about the vital signs. Now, I am going to write a reflective write about the video of my role play of TPR which is a part of assignment and done by me and my other two friends.

This clinical rotation I was assigned to observe at the operating room, where they conduct various surgical procedures. The night prior to the clinical, I have to admit, was every bit unnerving. Especially, the fear of not knowing what to expect was daunting. There must have been a thousand scenario of what to expect or what might possibly go wrong playing through my head that night. However, after being introduced to the nurse I would be following, and meeting the surgeon and the rest of the team; my nerves settled down. The surgery scheduled was for a ventral hernia, which seemed routine, but complicated by a previous bowel realignment previously. The whole operation, from beginning to end, lasted a little over four hours. Although, the procedure lasted that long, it did not bother me even bit. In spite of standing for the whole duration of the observation, I never felt tired nor gotten bored. Notably, watching the surgical team working cohesively is like watching an artists who have

With the observations, the goal was to become aware of what is in store for the future both within school and after graduation. First person observed was Sharon, a dental hygiene student at PIMA, in her 5th semester. To begin her visit, Sharon ensured she had all the necessary paperwork and materials needed for the visit prior to procuring her patient from the lobby. After sitting the patient down, she reviewed his medical history with him and took his vitals, she then turned her light on for an instructor. Once the instructor arrived, she presented the patient and had the instructor sign off on the paperwork. After the instructor left, Sharon quickly began to continue with an oral cancer screening (OCS), noting any findings. From there, she took periodontal probing depths (PPD), gingival margin to cementoenamel junction readings (GM to CEJ), clinical attachment loss (CAL), and periodontal description. Immediately after writing all her notes she turned her light on for an instructor to come evaluate her findings, which is called check in. When the instructor came into the room he sat down and had Sharon read off her findings to him while he did his own exam on the patient. From there, Dr. Burnett came to evaluate the patient. Unfortunately, the 3 hours had pasted by the time all this was done, so the patient was scheduled at a later date for his prophy.

I decided for my social observation the mall would be a good place to start. I came there on a Friday evening when there should be plenty of people to watch. I also sat in the Barnes and Noble café after that to observe. I expected to see a lot of people shopping and conversing. A few things did stand out to me within the few hours I was there. Some things I didn’t expect to see. We are expected to behave a certain way in public determined by our culture as to what is acceptable. Some people stay well within the lines while some might stray outside the norms but never too far typically. Usually the ones to travel to the extremes are adolescents and teenagers. This is what I observed.

The patient is a 12 year old female who presented to the ED with thoughts of self harm and cutting behaviors. The patient denies suicidal ideation, homicidal ideation, and symptoms of psychosis. The patient reports that she has been sad lately. Per- documentation the patient reports to peers at her school that she was trying to kill herself, which the school sent her to DayMark. Further, Daymak IVC the patient and requested further evaluation.

Worker observed one year old Vincent, he just had a birthday on February 15th. He was observed to be wearing a onsie and was sitting on a high chair. Vincent was eating gold fish crackers. He appeared to be healthy with no visible marks or bruises. Worker was informed that he received four vaccinations and those were his one year old vaccinations. He had his first birthday celebration at his daycare facility. It was a Mickey Mouse theme. Present at the party was his PGM, MGM his father Weylin, mother Katherine as well as the rest of the children in the daycare facility.

At approximately 0910 hours, on 07-Aug-15, the writer and S/O A.Sayeedi responded to a dispatch from POC to attend ATU 2. Upon arrival the officers met with the clinical staff, who informed the officers that the one of the patient has been really agitated and has not been co-operating with the clinical staff since morning. The officers were told that the clinical staff will get verbally engaged with the patient and will inform her that she will be going to Seclusion room in ATU1. The clinical staff also mentioned that the patient will not be co-operative to walk to Seclusion room, so the officers have to physically escort her there.

This observation is based on a family consisting of a young professional married couple and their three year old daughter. I observed them for one hour over three weeks, in the evening to fit into their schedules. They have lived in the borough of Croydon in their three bedroom house for six years. For the purpose of this assignment all the names have been changed and the family

During the clinical observations I observed a 60-year-old man whose clinical diagnosis is non-fluent aphasia. To improve on his conversation skills he has worked with the clinician using conversational therapy. When viewing the session, the client expressed an understanding when asked questions on cars and movies. Most of the time he was intelligible, but it becomes hard to understand him when he stops to retrieve a word. As this takes place, he uses SAF or AAC’s triggering for the word he did not remember. His AAC’s consisted of unaided and aided communication systems using his body to receive kinesthetic feedbacks and his phone. He not only expressed his ideas, but demonstrates an interest on his goals for this session and semester. By asking

Client was observed coloring only one sheet and started moving around the office. Client switched chairs several times. He sat on the chair with wheels and started swirling it around for a period of time. He then sit backward with his knees on the seat while hold the back of the chair with his two hands and started rocking the chair back and forth for a period of time. He rocked the chair to the point that the chair's two wheels came off the floor. He moved the chair closer to the clinician's desk and picked up a pen and started throwing the pen on the table. He picked up the pen and threw it on the table about 6 times. Clinician eventually came to the client and asked him to sit on a chair without wheels. Client then crawled under his chair.

I observed two different math classrooms for my clinical observation. The first classroom was in an urban school setting, grade two. The second classroom was in a more suburban school setting, fifth grade math. The second grade class period was ninety minutes long, the students rotated in groups to the teacher table and did a mini lesson there for about 15 minutes, while the rest of the 90 minutes was spent on a math website. The fifth grade class period was only 45 minutes long and the majority of what I saw was the teacher working with the students on correcting homework.
