Every Wednesday, a specific nurse who was also my hospital supervisor assigned a patient to me. My instructor made sure that this nurse tracked my progress on how I should manage the patient through a written report. While caring for the patient, I recorded various changes, he/she indicates recovery. I reported these changes to the nurse. While participating in this activity, I had to follow the strict guidelines of the instructor and nurse; as required by rules and regulations and the Nursing Code of Conduct. The nurse I was assigned to seemed a little intimidating in terms of how thorough she was when dealing with a student. This inspired me to strive to avoid errors by documenting on time and restoring the patient's confidence in my abilities. My main problem is that sometimes the nurse accompanied me to the patient, which increased my anxiety. This led to the customer's safety being jeopardized in this event; I forgot to lower the patient's bed to the appropriate height. The problem was very serious because it is clearly stated in the nursing code of ethics that the nurse must always make the patient feel safe and ensure their safety by doing things like lowering and raising the height of the bed as needed. In my case, the height of the bed had been temporarily increased by the nurse and I had to lower it to its original height. So I potentially and unconsciously compromised the patient's safety and comfort by leaving the bed high. I constantly reported to her on the patient's condition at short intervals throughout the day. That day, one of my patients had an IV site problem. The nurse asked me to make some adjustments ... middle of paper ...... awareness skills need to be taught and given enough training to perfect and maintain them. Instructors must be firm but fair. This means they must be willing to correct their student's errors without necessarily appearing bossy, which the nurse demonstrated. Nursing students need to interact more with their patients by listening to them and trying to understand them. Even if the patient doesn't know what's best for them, they can get an idea of ​​what's going on and help nurses better understand the issues. Everyone makes mistakes, but it's always good to learn from them. In professions like nursing, which combine pressure and tight schedules, it is important that nurses remain vigilant at all times. However, it is easy to stay focused if we adopt a problem-solving mentality and a positive attitude (Tucker, 2000). Only then can we go far.
