Reflection on Case Study
REFLECTIVE JOURNAL
As I look back on my case study and the preparation, I m amazed to find that I learned a lot from this case study. I learned a great deal throughout the entire exercise. This was my first case study of studying nursing; therefore I didn’t have much experience in writing this type of assignment.
During the course of writing this case studying there are some positives which helped to finish this assignment on time, although I couldn’t submit for feedback. I finished whole case one before the submission date. And also there some difficulties and things which I have to correct for next time if I have to write this type of assignment.
First I will write about positive things which I found helped me finishing this case study on time.
Case study started on 17 th September, when I went ward for this I was clear of my objectives and goal to achieve. I got chance to select any patient I want from any where I choose, so I have chosen the patient from same ward I m working. Therefore I was very familiar with patients and their relatives, especially disease condition of the patients. I have chosen a patient whom I was caring since her admission. But for the case study I needed more than just routine caring but patient. Thus very easily that patient has given verbal consent to make case study on her disease condition. I built good rapport with the patient which made it easily to communicate and give health education to her.
Next things is I got so much support from ward incharge, as I couldn’t get any kind of leave, she arranged my duties all morning shift as I wanted and allocated me only for that cubicles where my case study patient was. I’m really thankful for her doing that. In ward other nurses also tried to make those 5 days duties easily for me and helped a lot in my work.
Similarly my lecturer helped me a lot during the case study, she came to ward when I was doing case studying explained objectives and gave time to clear doubts. She
