Knowledge & Clinical Judgement
Module 3 was very beneficial and helped me through making nursing judgements. The module dove into procedures, ethic issues, and legal issues. It was interesting to learn about specific circumstances and beliefs each patient could have. It is important to keep ethical issues in mind at all times when providing care. The module also went into different thinking strategies to be successful in the work environment. In the nursing profession, these strategies and thoughts will come in handy as it includes important things to keep in mind when practicing.
Priority-Setting Framework
Module 4 brought new information and ideas to think about when proving care. Ultimately, decisions can be assessed based of off Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs. It walked through what types of patients should be seen first and how to make that decision. This skill is important when it comes to dealing with multiple patients who are dealing with complications. The module dove into the ABC’s of patients and was very interesting to read about. I also learned about safety skills and ways to prevent risks. This module was very beneficial and helped me with decision making when it comes to patients.
Michael, this was good as far as it went, but I would have liked a bit more reflection on self. How will you use this new information specifically to help you in patient care?
