The topic of exploring determinants of health in action is important to fully understand the factors that influence an individual’s health and the impact they have on their life. By understanding the different components that make up the determinants of health, we can fully understand each individual’s health and quality of life. When learning about socioeconomic status and determinants of health, we can understand how they are interrelated and the effects that a high and low socioeconomic status have on an individual, and specifically on children. By learning the different determinants of health and the positive and negative characteristics due to the socioeconomic status level, we can connect how these vast differences impact children, and how to handle the complications as a nurse. The determinant of health socioeconomic status is defined as a measure of an individual’s economic and social position determined by their income, education and employment (Canadian Institute for Health Information, 2008).

The purpose of this essay is to reflect and critically study an incident from a clinical setting whilst using a model of reflection. This will allow me to analyse and make sense of the incident and draw conclusions relating to personal learning outcomes.

The incident will then be described and analysed and the people involved introduced. (The names of the people involved have been changed to protect their privacy) and then I will examine issues raised in light of the recent literature relating to the incident.
Our own different and individual strategies for managing stress were discussed as well as how we learned these stress managing strategies. In the social learning activity, we conducted a survey to learn how individuals in our community experience and cope with stress. We acknowledged the importance of the federal laws and procedures created to protect patient privacy. We gained insight into the Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) and practiced completing a patient consent and restriction information form. This allowed our class to become informed on the process of admitting a patient in the field.
