I honestly didn’t know what my story was going to be about at first; all I knew is that I wanted a relationship to be involved. At first, I thought of writing about a woman who falls in love with her best friend, but I didn’t think I could go into great depths with this. I then decided on writing about an abusive relationship as there is so much raw emotion that can be portrayed through writing about this sort of situation. Whenever I start writing a piece, I feel that it may be a struggle to get to the word limit but as my story developed I felt that I could’ve just gone on and on with the storyline.

    I have a story that goes beyond the author’s idea. The space between the idea of it and it’s really had become filled with hatred. So when I saw it I wanted it to take it into my hands and tear it into little pieces. One day I went shopping with an old friend, we stopped at a traditional jewelry store.…

    Reflective Summary

    I felt sad for Mr. Gill, one of the main reasons being that I have personally been in a MVC myself which brought up the similar feelings, such as anxiety and chronic pain that Mr. Gill expressed. It felt like despite the differences in our age or situation, the pain he was expressing I could relate to directly. Another reason for feeling sadness for him was that he reminded me so much of my own father in appearance and nature. During the session, he referred to me as someone who is like his daughter and that he felt comfortable sharing information with me. I think this moment caused a shift in our therapeutic relationship, in which I felt even more inclined to show him respect and to provide encouragement on his development. The language barriers he faced in getting treatment made me feel angry towards the system. Unfortunately, MVC are common occurrences in our society thus, I imagined that the support systems would have been set in place for survivors to reduce the effects of physical and psychological harms.…

    The nurse manager should convince the nurse to share with the nurse manager about any difficulties that she faces during his shift.

    As nervous as I was when I walked into Saint Joseph Catholic School (K-8) for my first day of kindergarten, I never thought I would be able to leave after 6th grade and enter the world of middle school. In a small school of about 400 kids, I was familiar with every face that passed by me in the hallway. I got to know the kids in my grade so well and we all knew each other’s life stories. By the time I was in 6th grade at Saint Joseph, some of my friends were planning on going to Kinard middle school in 7th grade. At this point in my life, I was not completely content with where I was going to school. The realization came to me that it was time to move on. It was time for me to try something new.…

    An example of good reflective writing – integration of theory with personal experience; justification and explanation of person experience using relevant theory as support; provides insight into the author’s observations of the theory; appropriate use of language; analysis of theory within the context of own experience. Organisational change and development theory suggests that models are a good way of providing change practitioners with strategies to plan, implement and move through various stages of change (Waddell, Cummings & Worley, 2007). While it is arguable that models are useful in providing guidelines for change practitioners, I feel that they are not necessarily an accurate representation of how change is actually experienced in organisations. I have worked in an organisation that has been through repeated change throughout the duration of my employment. My experience of change has been somewhat different from how it is reflected in change models. For example, as an employee I have not been involved in the initial planning stages of change, nor have I been involved in diagnosis at an individual level, therefore I am unclear as to what happens during these stages. From an individual perspective, it feels as though change is planned and implemented in my organisation at the senior levels of management without adequate input or information to and from staff. Further, from my perspective, change is not experienced in a smooth manner as suggested by change models. I have experienced change that has not appeared to move beyond the unfreezing stages (Lewin, 1947), and I have also experienced change that has regressed at different stages rather than move forward. If I were to work with employees as a change practitioner, I would highlight the realities of change so that employees are aware that there are multiple experiences in addition to ‘the prominent way of viewing this process’ (McShane & Travaglione, 2007, p. 502) within…

    The process of writing my story was both hard and difficult. First I developed their characters by thinking of a name, how they look, talk, and act. I also thought of a background for my character. The first character I developed turned out to be my main character whose name was Addison. After I developed Addison, I created her best friend names Jolene. I thought of characteristics for her too. I knew there were going to be more characters in my story, I just wasn’t sure how many characters I was going to need or how they would turn out in the story. Finally when I was done with developing my characters, I wrote about two scenes before I completely changed what my story was going to be about. First I was going to have it be about someone who…

This reflection will relate to a situation that occurred in my clinical work where I felt that I have learnt something that is of value to my practice. The clinical decision was based on wound dressing. I will identify what I have learned from the experience and how this relates to theory that has been researched. To help me with this reflection I will use Gibbs (1988) model of reflection. For the purpose of confidentiality I will call the patient Mrs H. The description of events will be in the appendix.…
