She thought that was the best idea and would tell me all of the wonderful things nurses would do. Naturally I lo e helping people and as a child I knew that grandma also knew. We would play pretend and I was always the nurse and she was always my patient. So even from a very young age I have been told and encouraged to grow and do wonderful things with my life and if being a nurse is what I wanted then that’s what I could be. As I grew older I would always love to watch the Discovery Channel, watching Discovery Health and a show Called Birthday.
They range from breathing like a real person all the way to even talking like a real person. These features are what make SimMan such a great learning tool for nursing and medical students. They get the feel of a real scenario with the manikin, which makes a great tool for hands on learning without having any crucial mistakes made with actual human beings. Background Although SimMan is still in its early stages of development it is very unique to see how a simple manikin doll that was first used by tailors and dressmakers is now one of our everyday teaching tools for nurses in training. The first medical simulation manikin was used during the 1930’s when simulators began to be adapted to certain field needs.
Montessori: A Modern approach Chapter One: Historical Introduction to Montessori Early Professional Life • In 1896 Montessori became the first woman to graduate from the University of Rome Medical School and thereafter studied the works of Jean Itard and Edouard Seguin. • In 1898 she was named Directress of the State Orthophrenic School where she worked for two years and succeeded in teaching mentally challenged children to read and write. • The children were then presented to be examined alongside normal children in a public school and passed their exams successfully. • Montessori became convinced that applying her teaching methods to normal children would help them develop at a soaring rate. • In order to fully prepare herself, Montessori went on to study philosophy, anthropology and psychology as well as a more thorough study of Itard and Seguin.
Sister of Mrs J said that Mrs J has a good eye sight and it wold be a good point to write a notes for her. I prepared a little pad for Mrs J and a pen so If other methods don’t work – staff could simply write down questions they want to ask her. All staff and the family member agreed with this idea and we all started to use it every time when troubles with communication with Mrs J occurred.
The patient acknowledged that her Dr was reassuring in manner and methodically explained the outcome of each of her previous assessments. The most concerning result was that her lung function had reduced from 50% to 34%, causing her doctor to refer her immediately for another course of cyclophosphamide infusions. Overall she was satisfied with the appointment. She experienced short waiting times, her Dr showed reassurance and he justified reasons for her treatment plan in a clear and knowledgeable communication. She felt his friendly yet professional approach
In my nursing class, I learned that doctors cure the sickness and nurses cure the patient. This means that the nurse attends to the physical, mental, and psychosocial aspects in the care of patients. Some days can be demanding on the mind and body, but you can still go home and be grateful of what you have done for someone else. I believe that the core of nursing is love and passion for others. Without this love and passion, why is one in nursing.
Because of her unconditional willingness to take care of me, I have learned that in life it is important to consider others and not merely focus on your personal interests. This has pushed me to take care of my little sister more attentively and to help my mother around the house so that she doesn’t have to do everything herself. A few years ago, I got sick with the flu only a couple of days before my grandmother was set to travel back to Lebanon. My mother had work, my sister had school and my grandmother was suppose start packing. However, almost the entire two days she stayed by my side making me warm soups and teas, ensuring I was comfortable and keeping me company.
The Nurturing Nurse Joel Davey Cambrian College BSCN 1206: Self and Others l: Personal Discovery Kim Sheppard November 7, 2014 The Nurturing Nurse As I read the story A Celebration of Life, a single word came to mind with every action of Kathy Hamelin; Nurture. The word nurture refers to the kind of care that is given to someone or something so that it flourishes as it grows or develops (Meriam-Webster, 2014). This type of care can be applied to Nurse Hamelin’s story in many different ways. I believe that it is evident as she nurtures both the neonatal infants and their mothers, that she both exhibits nurturing care as well as follows the CNO ethical standards. Nurturing in the neonatal setting exhibits a holistic view of the nurturing care that should take place between the mother, her child, and the nurses in charge of their care.
My Road to Professional Nursing U of M Flint For as long as I can remember the world of medicine has been part of my life. This, along with a calling from God, is what I believe led me to become a professional nurse. As a young child I remember my father telling us about the ambulance runs and fires he was a part of as a firefighter/EMT/paramedic. I loved these discussions. I especially loved the look my dad would have on his face when he shared about how they were able to save a life, put out a fire, or be a comfort to the person injured or the family members watching and waiting.
I did nursing assistant to take care of my disabled mother who passed away from cancer. It was a side job taking care of her while I worked in technology. Through this certification process, I learned a lot about outpatient care. I had the opportunity to work for Kindred hospital to gain the maximum experience to use for the care of my mother. After her death, I got more interested in pharmacy because the medication had prolonged her life and when the medication was cut on her because insurance did not cover her she passed away.
