I have chosen to present my reflective report using Driscoll’s model (2007) of reflection because it is a developmental model that includes all the core skills of reflection: description, self-awareness, critical analysis, evaluation and synthesis; it consists in three stages in reflecting on one’s practice: ‘what?’ ‘so what?’ ‘now what?’. These trigger questions give a broad and substantial reflective process by challenging a more in depth examination, resulting in an action plan for the future (Bulman & Schutz,…

The weaknesses I have, as revealed via this exercise, can be classified as goals to achieve success, as indicators to analyze whether or not growth has been achieved, is needed, or a state of stagnancy exists as a professional practitioner. Although I consider myself to be a critical thinker, having watched the video presentation Laureate Education (2011) Critical Reflective Practice [Video, Online], (accessed: 23/04/14), there’s room for improvement with respect to not only just being a reflective thinker, but also to introduce a greater degree of reflexive thought processes.

“Reflective practice is a process by which you: stop and think about your practice, consciously analyse your decision making and draw on theory and relate it to what you do in practice.” (Csp.org.uk, 2014). Reflective practice allows us to evaluate how we provide care and to learn from both good and bad outcomes. It is important to be open, honest and critical when reflecting on our work.
