Running Head: INTERVIEWS NVT2 TASK #2 1 Interviews NVT2 Task #2 Diana Kaminski Western Governors University Interviews Task #2 2 Summary After interviewing the perspective disciplines, all the disciplines acquire assistance from other staff members. It is apparent that all staff members value the expertise from the other disciplines when they have questions of that particular field and are uncertain of a particular topic. For example, the staff nurse that I interviewed said she utilized orthopedics and cardiologists most often to discuss treatments and referrals when necessary. The certified nurse midwife stated that she utilizes the expertise of family practice physicians and OB/GYN. Each nurse demonstrated that teambuilding is important because it helps to provide better patient care by utilizing the expertise of the other disciplines and allowing collaborative efforts to resolve patient problems.

Many of these patients have complex conditions and the more education a nurse has in preparation and critical thinking will be better prepared to manage the care of the patients under their care. I was working in a Rehabilitation hospital and during my shift, I had a patient who was doing well. The assessment was completed with nothing exceptional noted. During my charting I also make a habit to read the history report for all my patients as well as labs and other tests that have been done. I read the patient had history of hypertension and diabetes.
It is the nurse’s aide responsibility to: call resident by proper name, praise accomplishments, discuss current issues, request resident’s opinion, show respect and approval at all times. When all other needs are met, self-actualization can occur. This is a feeling of acceptance that a person is what one wants to be and experiencing one’s potential. Unfortunately, this need is rarely met. Coping mechanisms are ways to help residents deal with stress.

Nursing, from its foundation and elevation by pioneers such as Florence Nightingale has always relied upon the idea of compassion as its core essence. Later on, other nursing theorists like Sister Simone Roach made it a key component of the development of her own version of caring as a theory on which nursing is based. The concept analysis developed by Avant and Walker (2011). Concept analysis in strategies for theory construction in nursing pp.157-176 provides tools that can be used to demonstrate the importance of compassion when it comes to its application for relevant and competent nursing practice. Compassion: A Concept Analysis From its inception to today’s practice the essence of nursing has not changed, despite its ever growing scope and field of action.
Provision nine states that a nurse is responsible for articulating nursing values and maintaining integrity of the profession (Martha D.M. Fowler, 2010). This can be accomplished by becoming a mentor for nurses who have just graduated. I could sign up to be a preceptor and really share with the new nurse the values of nursing, as well as demonstrate the integrity and core values of the profession. I could easily go through each of the nine provisions to the ANA Code of Ethics and demonstrate how I can use each one in my daily life as a registered nurse.
