Report
What were your responsibilities or duties this week?
My responsibilities included being professional and observing the nurse I was following. I was to be respectful and considerate to the staff and patients.
What new knowledge or skill did you learn this week?
I observed an admission of a patient and what to ask for during admission. I also learned about the consent of the patients.
What was the best thing that happened at the unpaid work-based learning site this week?
I loved that the nurse I had was actually trying to teach me things and explain the best that she could. All I heard were bad things about Day surg so it was nice that it wasn't that bad.
What was the worst thing that happened at the unpaid work-based learning site this week?
The actual admission wore me out. I was just kind of standing there watching a nurse ask questions and I started yawning and I felt so bad because the patient could see me.
If the "worst" was a mistake, how was it corrected?
I should have asked questions as the admission was happening but it seemed rude. I also probably should have gotten more sleep than I did the night before.
This week was FAIR. Why?
It wasn't exciting, but it wasn't terrible or boring by any means. I learned a lot, just not about what I was interested in.
