Reflection On Person Centred Practice
In this assignment I will be reflecting on my self awareness and personal attributes in my Person Centred Practice (PCP) unit, reflection is associated with learn from experience and is viewed as an important strategy for nurses (Benlow & Jordan, pp.163-2017). I will be discussing four areas in this essay, these areas are my own Self Awareness to person centred practice and my personal attributes to this unit which are; Enthusiasm, Reliability and Commitment. Within this essay I will explain how I have contributed to the unit of person centre practice.

I have been able to show that I am enthusiastic and would like to learn more by asking questions during seminars. I have also been able to develop my enthusiasm throughout the PCP unit by becoming more keen, I have been able to ask if I can help more within a group setting.

Going forward I feel I have made huge improvements and I now have a firm base on which to grow these attributes further. I will now be able to use my newly developed skills in nursing practice.
