My original long-term goal was to lose twenty pounds, which now seems almost impossible due to me not being able to lose ten pounds in a few months. I was also unable to meet my three short term goals. Although I was unable to reach…

The nursing process is a framework that is reliable to make appropriate decisions (Bloniasz, 2011, p. 15).

The steps are assessment, analysis, planning, implementation, and lastly evaluation (Black, 2014, p. 227). We must keep in mind that during these steps, the collaboration between the patient and the nurse should occur, and although some situations may prevent this from happening,…

Diversity is the embrace of dissimilarities of people from different cultural backgrounds. This class gave me the tools to reflect on how my personal experiences taught me about diversity and how I have embraced it in different…
