However having received theory classes on basic nursing intervention ,i had to implement it and tried to communicate and take my time with the client. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Evaluation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On evaluation , my tutor Nurse was with me and said it was a good one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analysis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>on my reflection while we were with the patient i was able to interact with the patient also being able to carry him along ,informing him on what i was doing&nbsp; made me to gain confidence in myself and reflect as a nurse that while practicing i need to always go back to my book to keep me informed and updated as well as doing the right thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conclusion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>my conclusion is that if I find myself in that situation again i will handle it much better than i did, taking note of what my tutor nurse said and also remembering the positive comment will help build my confidence in caring out the plan .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Action plan:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>my action plan in the future is that I be more relaxed and try to plan better on how to carry out the plan . also will like to prepare the things that will be needed to execute the my plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Week 2 :Things that i did in this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bed cleaning<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bathing and bed sheet changing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>giving patients medicine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>having carried out all this duties in week 2 , i would like to base my reflection of learning on the general side of my learning<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Description :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>getting acquainted with the clients is a vital part of nursing and also with the people working there as it makes the job more harmonious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feeling :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this 2 weeks, i have had different feelings ,since we all have different methods of performing our duties but one key fact that i have noticed is that the general principle of nursing is always followed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Evaluation :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>while administering the medication to a client my mentor nurse made me calm and asked me to relax and was with me all through the way, this made me really calm and wanting to do more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analysis :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>before i carried the plan out i had to think of how to carry my plan and successful so i tried to understand the process of what i was doing and make the patient to know my plan so that&nbsp; the patient can be calm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conclusion :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My conclusion is that i should always know what am about to do and always ask for advice and support on what to do by my tutor nurse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Action Plan :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>to try to be calm at always<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Week 3.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyday morning duties such as<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bed cleaning of patients , morning shower, feeding patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Giving patients medication<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>doctor visit<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Putting patients medicine into dosetti<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Documentation<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Changing bed patients position<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Description:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>carrying out morning routines with the patients like bed cleaning checking of bed wound and redness on the skin .also feeding the patient and assisting patient to take their bath either on the bathing wheelchair or&nbsp; bathing bed ,giving medications to the patient making sure that they take in their medication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>learning how to use Hilkka, understood the method how medications are been arranged for each client in the home, had a meeting with the visiting doctor with a client .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feeling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>while carrying out this plan i appreciated the human body more , knowing that daily cleaning of the skin keeps the skin healthy and free from skin diseases&nbsp; and allows me as a nurse to monitor the patient skin if or when there is any skin ulcer, seeing how the skin changes as we go in life .this has made me understand the precision taking when it comes to patients medication. been with the doctor, also made me understand how the opinion of a mentally stable client is respected, no matter where they are or the condition they find themselves in and this conversation was carried on with a close family member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Evaluation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>during my evaluation ,my tutor nurse encouraged me to take time to when handling patients medication (by always double checking), include patients in the there daily routine .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ANALYSIS :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before i carry out my work description i always try to plan on how to make it a success ,this allows the patients to be clam .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conclusion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>my conclusion is to concentrate&nbsp; on my patients skin, feelings when attending to them and also be very careful and be patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>my action plan is that concerning&nbsp; bed cleaning and body wash is that i have to concentrate on the body especially drying up the body after bathing to avoid fungi growth around the hidden areas of the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Week 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>week 4 was about working independently on my own and nurses own time with patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Medication giving<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>nightly routine check up<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Description<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>working&nbsp; independently with the patients on my own ,doing morning routines such as morning wash, evening wash, feeding and medication handout. i was instructed to carry out this plan by my tutor nurse .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feelings :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carry out my morning routine on my own wasn\u2019t difficult but support the patients out of bed was beginning to feel more like an understanding between myself and the clients<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Evaluation :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>my tutor nurse came in to check if everything was going on well with me and also asking patients if they where also OK. and after wards i have to evaluate their situation and give my tutor nurse&nbsp; feedback of situation such as what was&nbsp; wrong the patient and as a student nurse what do i think is the cause and how do we help the patient and my tutor was really pleased with me .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Analysis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I feel and think that the patients allowing me to carry out this plan means that they trust me to it successfully therefore allowing me to gain more knowledge and confidence as a student nurse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conclusion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>my conclusion to my week 4 activities would be that practicing more will allow me to be perfect and allowing me to think of other means or ways to carry out the plan quick and in a safe manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My action plan will be to get more knowledge and to keep myself up to date to enable me carry out the plan successfully and for me to be able to inform the patients about the procedure and it benefits and side effects .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Week 5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>worked independently and also assisting other health care workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Description:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>worked independently on my own doing the daily routines morning and afternoon and practicing the nursing basic care clinical skills and also getting to know the patients at this point makes it easy for me to carry out the nursing care effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feeling :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>carrying out my nursing skills independently made me happy with myself and also boosting my confidence and made me to realize that my tutor nurse me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Evaluation :<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>carry out this plan and working independently with my tutor nurse supervision and support allows me to practice the clinical skills with confidence and able to carry it out successfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Action:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TO CONTINUE TO PRACTICE MORE IN MY NEXT INTERNSHIP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Conclusion:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To update myself by reading more and keep practicing the clinical skills in future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>GOAL<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summary of learning in my basic nursing care and my Goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Learning skills<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I having&nbsp;
