My Mind Set in Clinical Experience
Whenever people get to know that I’m going to pursue nursing, the first questions they tend to ask me is about clinics. Clinical is actually when a group of 6 or 7 goes to a setting of professional nursing to work with an employee instructor purposely to acquire knowledge and skills in a particular area of care. Excitement, Anxiousness, fear, and everything in between are all kind of emotions that I’m feeling before joining the nursing school. Most of these feelings come as a result of trying to think of what would be a real-life experience as a nurse in our clinical cycles. Before, I perceived nursing as a tedious and tiresome profession that I could never dream of pursuing. Although, now, I believe nursing is one of my best careers that I must pursue as I have a feeling of helping people. The mindset came to me when I started learning over the internet how people are mistreated in hospitals and getting poor services. As I purpose to joining the nursing school, I’m also determined after completion, in future to research fast increasing natural medicine. Moreover, I will also get the latest research and the practical direction for helping the increasingly large number of people looking for natural health care. Furthermore, I perceive the environment for clinical learning as the best compared to others as there is good leadership, management, and presence of mentors.
Additionally, back in my mind, I know I will create a good network as I join the nursing school, and this can guarantee me of a job after completion. The attachments will introduce me to my professors, supervisors, and also coworkers who can help me during the job search. Moreover, I can best improve my knowledge and skills in the health sector, and this can help me start my consultant clinic. However, in my mind, I know I will have roles and responsibilities to play. I must put myself in a position of listening to the patients and understanding their conditions as I know patients always come first.
Moreover, these responsibilities, I’m aware some of them revolves around repeat actions, for example, going around visiting patients and administering required care.
Furthermore, im very energized and eager to engage in clinical experience as it is my best career.
Additionally, I know clinics sector are governed by a set of regulations, rules, ethical standards and laws which am prepared to adhere. Also, I bear in mind that in all situations, I should have confidentiality and portray an ethical manner as the clinics have ethics that controls and guides nurses in their daily work—for example, upholding of patient confidentiality. Furthermore, I’m aware of legal issues associated with healthcare, for example, negligence or informed consent and also the application of legal actions. I should also confer often to my instructor about my performance so that I can know areas that I need to put more effort to improve. I should engage myself not only in classroom assigned work but also in the overall community. Moreover, I need to have lessons plan and focuses on delivering the best. There will be seminars that will help me to work on instructional strategies, assessment strategies, unit and lesson planning, differentiation of the instructions and several days to day concerns of the clinics and classroom.
