What was the nature of the experience?

During my outpatient placement, I collaborated with a fellow student nurse to discuss clinical cases and problem-solving approaches. We shared insights on patient assessments and discussed best practices for managing complex cases.

What did I learn from the experience?

This experience highlighted the value of peer learning in refining clinical judgement. Discussing cases with a colleague provided alternative perspectives and helped me critically assess different approaches to patient care.

How did I apply this learning to my practice?

Moving forward, I plan to actively engage in peer learning by discussing clinical cases and seeking feedback from colleagues to enhance my critical thinking and decision-making skills.
