Evidence/Indicators
Week 9:
This week I went to the wound care
clinic in order to observe chronic
wounds. I was able to examine
wounds such as stage 4 pressure
ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic foot
ulcers, and frostbite. This helped me
to better understand how to dress
these wounds, as well as the
experiences that patient may
experience while undergoing
treatment. Additionally I was able to
see wounds that I would not have
been able to experience on my
particular floor.
Week 7:
This week I escorted a patient to the
cast clinic as well as the X-ray. I was
able to better understand their
experience of constant tests and not
fully understanding their situation.
This allowed me the opportunity to
help explain the situation and to
understand why some patients may
become anxious and nervous in the
hospital setting.
Week 7:
I cared for a patient this week with
MRSA and a perforated bowel. This
patient appeared to have been

Weeks 7-10:
I have become more comfortable
independently assessing patients for
disease related consequences such
as pressure ulcers and areas of
impaired skin integrity. After these
assessments I feel more confident
independently assessing patients
charts and determining the pertinent
information for progress notes.
Weeks 6-8:
Worked with patients that had
experienced alcohol abuse.
Understood how this abuse relates to
their current condition. Such as how
the alcohol disrupted body balances,
caused damages to the liver, CNS
and other body symptoms, and the
role this condition had on their
present condition. Understood the
role of thiamine supplements in their
condition, and other behavior
changes that are a result of the
condition.
Week 8:
Worked with patient that I had
previously had who has extreme
contractures. I know have a better
understanding of the interventions
that can be taken with the patient in
order to attempt to minimize
complications, and to improve my
own ability to care for them. For
example understanding how to move
and reposition the patient in order to
attempt to minimize potential pain
that they may or may not be able to
experience. Along with this I did
attempt to perform some range of
motion exercises to try to increase
muscle tone. Additionally, I positioned
gauze in areas at risk for skin
breakdown in an attempt to minimize
skin breakdown.
Week 7:
Working with a patient that did not
7. Critically appraise own practice in relation to nurseclient/family interactions and as a member of the health
care team
Week 7:
I worked with other team members to
help them as I was assigned the role
of team leader for the day. I helped to
be an extra set of hand or to help
perform care if they were unable to.
This helped me to better understand
my role within the collective group
and the importance of teamwork as
opposed to individual work.
Week 7:
I worked with a patient that had not
been told of their results from tests in
the morning. These tests determined
that their care would dramatically
change towards palliative. However
as a student I am not allowed to
reveal this news to the patient, as
that is the role of the doctor.
Determining what my role within the
healthcare team entailed was
important for me in this
circumstance. While I wanted to
inform him of the reality of his
situation I had to assess what was
within my scope of practice. After I
had established this I adjusted my
practice to accommodate my scope.
This was done by providing care to
the patient and when asked revealing
that I was not permitted to discuss
the results of the tests as I am only a
student and not qualified to
administer this information as I am
not well informed enough to.
Week 9:
Week 5-9:
I have increased my workload from
one patient to two. This has helped
me to learn to not only prioritize but
also how to time manage. These skills
have helped me to develop and a
nursing student. I have learned about
prioritizing patient needs and
managing commitments to others as
well. For example I have learned how
to administer medications, perform
morning care and help others with
commitments I made to them within
a specified amount of time.
