Argumentative Essay: The Case Of Miranda Anderson

Decent Essays
On 4/12/2017 between 11:30am and 12:00pm, Mr. Milton McDonald, a vascular patient of Miranda Anderson, had brought to my attention that the bandage on his left stump was coming off and he needed someone to "re-bandage his left leg." As I proceed to walk to Rm. 216 (ABI room where Miranda was working at), I noticed the door was close, so I walked into Rm. 206 where Mike Sturges, Shar Patel & Taylor Deville were at. I addressed Dr. McDonald's issue to them. Shar asked me "who's patient is he." I responded by saying "he's Miranda's patient." Shar said "you have to talk to her because she don't deal with her." I told Shar that "Miranda is in with a patient, but that's beside the point. can you help this patient." She said "I'm working in podiatry"

My performance was not only unfit within the scope of academic criteria, but was clearly short of acceptable for a real-world SBAR. During the reading of the scenario I was daunted by the task of having to SBAR report a patient to admission at a hostpital, based on information I was reading for the first time; my practice with the hand-over system was minimal prior to the session.…

This owes itself to the fact that when nutrition standards were established for public schools, it was to solve the problem of undernourishment.

When we entered the room, the patient seemed lethargic and confused, after introducing ourselves, I began the reconciliation process.…
