Learning Activity 1: Assignment Submission Week
This week is assignment submission week. We are off from university so that we can focus on assignment submission. This whole week was quite stressful for me because of the exam and assignment. On Monday, 7th of August 2023 I completed the exam for the module – Understanding Health and Illness across Lifespan.
Today, I submitted my reflective assignment from the module -Developing Professionals and Academic Skills for Nursing Associates. I am glad that I have finally submitted my assignments and I am quite happy with the work I have done.
I also met Colin Rowe this week for my tripartite in which I gained feedback on my studies so far. I was given a lot of positive feedback and support during my studies. I am hoping to get good marks for my assignments. Upon meeting Colin, we discussed the topic covered for today’s class session which is Medication Management.
I read the theoretical presentation that the session covered for today. There is plenty of information regarding the topic. Colin reassured me that we would go over the topic in our Care delivery module.
