The Importance Of Self-Regulation In Nursing

Although I can understand why the oncologist may consider the nurse was acting unprofessionally by Kuhse’s standards, I do not agree with the oncologist’s decision or actions. According to Kuhse, nurses should only have a position of “advocacy for patients” and should accept their apparently subservient role in the medical world. Her ideas state that truly caring

As lifelong learning continues, it is important to focus on patients and family outcomes through teamwork collaboration, advocating, effective communication, and equally, self-driven to accomplish goals to create and coordinate activities to promote professional development, is why I have chosen to apply for the ambulatory nurse educator

My knowledge in the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) continues to expand as I progress through the DNP program. The knowledge I have attained while in the study of the DNP I and DNP II is priceless. For example, recognizing stakeholders and utilizing networking has helped me to progress on my DNP project (Gokenbach, 2012). I also have a better understanding as well as the purpose of a DNP project. My mentors have been great in directing me in remaining on the right track.

There would be situations to challenge my clarity of being a safe practitioner in the clinical learning and development practices. For example, even though there is time pressure when administering medications to my patient with a buddy RN, I have to ask to check MIMS about pharmacological action if the drug is new to me, or to check patient’s pulse rate for a full minute. As a student nurse, I have to practice to stand up for my limited clinical skills and knowledge. The best way to improve my leading and learning skill is to actively seek guidance from the clinical facilitator and feedback from incumbent nurses.

The project for Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN) began in 2005; Robert Wood Johnson Foundation funded the project. Robert Wood Johnson Foundation is the largest philanthropy, which solely focused on health; the foundation's goal is to improve the health and health care of all Americans. The project was launched to teach quality and safety competencies to the future nurses. The QSEN's goal is to give the opportunity for the future nurses to meet the challenges, like knowledge, skills, and attitudes, that they are preparing for the healthcare systems. The six competencies need to be and defined in order for the goal of QSEN to be accomplished.

Cultural competence can be define as obtaining cultural information about patients and then applying the knowledge in order to improve nursing care and patients health status. In today’s Australian health care professional have to be culturally competent and sensitive to other people culture as they have to deal with patients of diverse social, economical, political and cultural environment with different belief system. According to 2012 census data by Australian bureau of statistics out of total population only 2.5% identified themselves as Torres strait islander people and 26% of them are immigrant and further 20% having one parent born

During a clinical shift, I would be responsible for providing care to patients with malignant hematological diseases, completing pertinent assessments and teaching skills, such as how to care for the mouth when experiencing mucositis and how to avoid infections. Self-reflection on Professional

• Assessment: Nurses often feel uninformed when changes are made. Not being made aware of important changes can affect patient care. • Nursing Diagnosis: Communication breakdown due to ineffective delivery of new changes related to patient care. • Goal setting: Implement an education book that is placed near the nurse 's station and nurses are responsible to read the changes and sign off when they have read it. • Evaluation: Nurses are better informed and are up to date with new

This paper provides a description of the education program for nurse practitioners in the Université de Montréal’s Faculty of Nursing, widely considered a leader in the discipline. It further reports the results of a study examining the roles and responsibilities of Nurse Practitioners and of the factors that, despite the impediments to progress the practice faces, motivate them to pursue development of their abilities in carrying out their duties and making “a difference.” Nurse Practitioners are proud of being a source of reference for their colleagues and believe strongly professional collaboration while acknowledging and respecting their limitations, by refusing to assume any responsibilities not delegated to nurse practitioners. The conclusions were based on the findings and logically stated. There was a very in-depth research project, particularly for a journal article.

Providing care to a patient is a particularly challenging process that requires a great deal of effort from a nurse. A nurse’s ability to give quality care to their patient is an important aspect to a patient’s life both now and in the future. As such, nurses must exhibit specific qualities in their practice in order to maintain the best standard of care for their patients. Given this, I believe that the standards of knowledge, advocacy, and self-awareness are foundational to the nursing practice and to a nurse’s capacity to provide quality patient care. Knowledge

1.2.1.2 Bandura’s social cognitive theory (1997) While one strand of research grounded in Rotter’s Social Learning Theory developed, a second strand emerged, growing out of Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory and his construct of Self-Efficacy, as initially described in his 1977 article, ‘‘Self-Efficacy: Toward a unifying theory of behavioral change’’. Bandura (1997) defined perceived Self-Efficacy as ‘‘beliefs in one’s capabilities

Self-awareness I was extremely nervous about coming onto med-surg unit today because I feel that I have had much that I need to review, but not a whole lot of time to review materials. I was also nervous because I know that many of my fellow nursing students have a lot more experience than I do in health care, so I felt that the nurse I would shadow today may not want someone with such little experience as me. As I was sitting at our meeting spot at 6:40 this morning, I realized that my mentality was already a barrier that I needed to overcome before I stepped out on the unit today. I needed to remind myself that this was a different unit than my mental health rotation.
