I learned that the discharge process, teaching involved and filled out the paperwork with assistance from the primary nurse. I also
learned about post open heart precautions (sternal precautions) I was able to put ecg leads on by myself and restart monitor after
helping patient shower.
Which objective did you accomplish this week? How did you do it?
I was able to actively participate in all clinical care of my patient. Also, able to use therapeutic communication. I was able to do all my
patient’s ADL’s and carry out her plan of care because I had a very good primary nurse that let me do many skills. I also got to use
therapeutic communication, because I was able to spend a lot of time with my patient and just listening to her. I was able to build a
good patient nurse relationship.
Do you have any concerns about your performance? If so, what are your plans for improvement? Please explain.
There is always room for improvement, I would like to improve on understanding the ECG strips. I want to continue to practice SBAR so
I can give a flawless report and a good picture of my patient to the oncoming nurse.
