It was my first day of training. UCSD Medical Center (or whatever the name is). First stop: Emergency Room. As I walked inside I saw doctors and nurses bustling about. To my left a resident was stitching up a bicyclist who had been in an accident.…
Being at the Phoenix Center today made me see how people’s attitude can affect a person. Patient’s in detox centers such as Phoenix have set schedules to abide by as part of their treatment plan. It is nesseccary for them to attend to these private and group meeting to help them stay on track. Many of them see these meeting as pointless and stupid but they are very beneficial to their progress. These patients are also grogy and tired as they are coming off of drugs and alcohol, and the medications they take also make them tired as well.…
Response 1: Narrative I worked for a lot of things during my high school career such as good grades, leadership roles, joining clubs, and getting accepted into national honor society. However, I had never wanted anything more than getting into the nursing and fundamentals program. This program was a three-semester long class in which allowed you to earn your certified nursing assistance license. I had heard so many great things about this program and wanting to be a nurse in the future I wanted to have my CNA license as base to start my nursing career.…

This week I was at the Vine one day, and I also started my clinical at the Health Department. For the Vine Clinic, I did a three siblings 72 hours intake. They were all boys. I felt bad for those boys for the difficult environment they were living in. Those boys’ parents are currently not allowed to visit them due the verbal abuse and domestic violence.…
It’s 0500 in the morning, and Taylor is getting ready for her first clinical as a paramedic student. Taylor is 5’2, looks as though she is 12, and has a heart larger than life. When people would ask why she chose the career field she is in, she would always respond with a smile, “I’m an adrenaline junkie, and this gives me a fix like no other.” People often wonder what inspires people like her to do what they do for people they don't know, and it all comes back down to something as simple and being the light in the dark, the calm in the storm, and hope amongst the chaos. Working in a field that is so demanding of your energy, your time, and your emotions, can really drain someone.…
Background Summary of Field Experience For my Summative Project, I completed my observation hours at Heritage High School in freshmen English classes. I chose this site because it is close to my residence and the contact information was provided by Regis University. When I reached out to the person of contact, she was slow to respond. Taking maters into my own hands, I went to the Heritage High School website and researched the English teachers on my own. While looking around online, I was amazed to find that all of the teachers have links to class web pages.…
As I looked around at the blank white walls surrounding me, my anxiety only grew. Why am I here? The question haunted my mind as my solid white shoes tapped softly on the monotonously grey floors. My green eyes landed back on the paper in my hand, reading the words again. Patient 7539, please report to clinical area 3 for a checkup at 6:30am.…
Throughout my clinical rotations, I have dedicated myself to giving best shot at all the specialities, and at the same time trying to figure out a speciality that would align flawlessly with my personal and future goals. While this task seemed straightforward and uncomplicated, it was challenging to find a specialty that combined cerebral requirements of internal medicine and procedural skills of surgery, until my Anesthesiology rotation. Major factors that drew me to the specialty were the challenge of managing critically ill patients, the clinical application of pharmacology and physiology and the hands on nature of the speciality. During my third year, I had glimpse of the profession while doing my core rotations. My first month into clinical rotations, I was on-call for my internal medicine rotation.…
I feel that the preoperative briefing that took place before the patient arrived is what allowed the team to work so well in this emergency case, all of the details that was known about the patient was shared to the entire theatre team, with enough time to be able to prepare and collect all the appropriate equipment that was needed but also equipment that was possibile needed so that all avenues of care was covered and prepared. Bethune (2011) stated that teamwork, communication, and efficiency in the operating theatre is widely recognised to be suboptimal. Poor communication is the single biggest cause of medical error. The surgical operating theatre is a potentially highly stressed environment where poor communication can lead to fatal errors.…
Nursing is a lifelong learning. To grow professionally in nursing I need to reflect and analyse on my clinical experiences. It will help me to improve my professional practice, gain more knowledge and skills, and increase my critical thinking abilities and confidence in dealing with difficult situations. To reflect on what I had learned during my past work experiences I will use Gibbs reflective cycle. It was my first week of work as an Operating Theatre (OT) nurse.…
