Recommended: Critical analysis of patient assessment

Yesterday was my eighth visit at the Woodhaven Care Center. The first two hours of my day were spent running from room to room checking on patients to see if they were ready for treatment. Unlike prior weeks were I helped an average of 3 to 4 patients this week my lead was only one. I spent a majority of time motivating tired patients to come with me to the treatment area, watching and other staff with their patients. The highlight of my day was when I get to meet a second year student from our CCAC PTA program. She provided me with her insight in the program along with things she has been introduced. I found value in our talk and plan to add to my bag of tricks as I continue through the program and my ultimate goal the workforce. Today was

    ...en who are there each week are incredibly inspirational, and they never seem to be discouraged, even though some of the patients have been there for five to six weeks in a row. I look forward to seeing their smiling faces each time I visit, yet I cannot help but hope they will not be there but will be at home the next time I visit.

The daily tasks I had to perform where to enlighten the spirits of children and reduce the amount of anxiety that developed within them when they approached a hospital visit. I would play games, read books, or just company the patients at their bedside. I especially love to interact with the younger patients because their laughter and innocence warms my heart up.

  • Clinical Observation: A Reflection Of My Personal Experience In Nursing

    I was then introduced to a patient who was in isolation. Her legs were immovable and were crossed in a very uncomfortable position. I wish I could’ve done something so that her legs could be in a more comfortable position, but all I could do was observe and get her a cup of ice cold water to drink. During this clinical observation, I didn’t get to see much but overall, it was a good experience. It made me realize what it was like to be in a hospital setting and what it meant to be a nurse. Seeing how the patients were still able to smile through all the pain they went through, it made me want to become a nurse even more because I would also like to make my patients happy. If I could do one thing differently during this clinical observation, I wish I didn’t ask my senior nurse about what externships she took and instead, I wished I asked her more questions about the patients in order to gain more information about
