Multiple Patient Tasks
The first one was that Na'Zsha was shy and nervous when talking to patients. Therefore, I gave her the task to engage in a conversation with a patient she assisted me with, to receive a history of the patient's health. This task was given to her to give her an idea of the type of questions patient's are asked during an assessment. Lastly, she was overwhelmed with how much patient care must be completed. I informed her that prioritizing and careful decision making are important skills to have and use when caring for patients. Daily tasks that I must do for a patient were given to her to prioritize them in the order of importance. This gave her the chance to learn how to handle multiple patient tasks.

    Alarms have their advantages and disadvantages. However, we could not thrive in nursing without alarms because they save lives. Are they annoying at times, yes they do. In the ICU, alarms are never shut off or turned down; they are set specifically to the patients’ parameters. (Hebda & Czar, 2013, p. 14) stated that “Patient safety is a priority for the health systems, professionals, and consumers around the world.” In the scenario given regarding working in a sterile environment and having my cell phone ringing; I would be truthful and tell my patient that I am doing a sterile procedure and cannot touch the phone at this time. For example, there are several times when doctors and I are doing a sterile procedure and his or her phone or beeper rings, what do they do? In reality, the doctors ask another nurse who is in the sterile environment, but is not a part of the procedure to answer the phone or beeper.…

    There are many people in this country that are unable to receive the medical care they need, because they are not able to get to these facilities’. Many small towns do not have the recourses to open, or maintain clinics that could ensure that patients are receiving the care they need.

With this title, community’s will be able to receive great medical care and, improve the community’s economy by creating open positions. I also feel that this is something that should have been introduced years earlier.…
