For the hospital reflection journal‚ I chose to discuss my experience in the place I could perceive myself working in during my nursing career – the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). My NICU hospital experience occurred on Sunday‚ March 26‚ 2017 at the Honor Health Scottsdale Shea center. My nurse and I were assigned to two premature infants – a 4-week-old female and an 8-week-old male. The infant I decided to do my assignment on was the 4-week-old female. She was born on 02/20/2017 at 25 weeks

Clinical Reflection: This week in clinical I had my first real labor and delivery experience. My patient‚ RW‚ was admitted for pre-Eclampsia and headache. She was my first patient to be married and older than me‚ so my experience was a little different. One of the most striking complications of her pregnancy was her obesity. She had a BMI of 49.89‚ which complicated her FHR monitoring‚ mobility‚ and labor progression. RW had also had back surgery which was complicated by osteomyelitis

This week was the first time I did my clinical rotation as an FNP student and it was absolutely a completely new world for me! Why?

Before going any further‚ I would like to share that I am in a specialty clinic – hand surgery - a subspecialty of orthopedics. The clinic deals with issues related to the elbow and

Clinical Reflection: Lab Skills Today was not the typical clinical rotation‚ in fact‚ we did not even get to go to the clinical site. There was no assessment form to be completed‚ no vital sign to be documented‚ nor chart to be investigated‚ but important nursing skills are needed to be practiced nonetheless. After a long grueling week of tests‚ deadlines‚ and mounds of study materials‚ the clinical serves as an inspiration to focus on what is ahead. I look forward to Thursdays with great anticipation

Clinical Reflection: Friendship The social stigma that comes with mental illness is often more disabling than the illness itself. The labels attributed to those who are mentally ill are not only discriminating but also isolating; those perceived less than able are kept and ignored. However‚ there are organizations that advocates and helps to integrate these most vulnerable individuals into our society‚ and that is what made this clinical rotation at Friendship special. Most of the individual

My clinical rotation at White Memorial Medical Center was a memorable experience for me. The nurses that I was assigned to or shadowed were very kind with sharing their experiences as well as their knowledge when it came to taking care of children. My first day at White Memorial Medical Center‚ I was lucky enough to be picked by the charge nurse named Robbie at the PICU. She picked two more students to shadow her nurses. She had four patients ranging from ages 3 months to 15 years of age. I had a

Reflection on a clinical skill. Introduction The clinical skill this reflective assignment will refer too is that of the measurement of blood pressure. As the experience predominantly involved feelings and thoughts‚ I found it appropriate to use the Atkins and Murphy (1994) reflective model. The use of this model enables me to reflect on the experiences described below. It also guides my thoughts as to critically analysing the experience and enlightens me as to what has been learned from the

Final Clinical Reflection Please answer all questions clearly. Classroom Management What classroom management and lesson ideas have you observed that made an impression? The classroom management technique that was the most effective in my classroom was “class‚ class..yes‚ yes.” The teacher would simply say “class‚ class” in whatever pitch she chose and the students had to match saying “yes‚ yes.” She would even jazz it up and say “classity‚ class” and the students respond by saying “yessity‚ yes
