Title : Developing professional values and behaviour / Anatomy of physiology , System, Cells and Homeostatic.
DEVELOPING PROFESSIONAL VALUES AND BEHAVIOUR
In the morning section we learnt about the NMC code of conduct which contains the standard that Nurses, Midwives and Nursing Associates must uphold in direct PT care and leadership research and education.
I also learnt about the NMC 6Cs which comprises of Compassion, Communication, Competence, Courage, Commitment, and Care , including duty of candour and how we are bind by the NMC to implement them in our role as Nursing Associate.
We went further to discuss the British Values which we need to adhere to in our profession and how to implement them in our dad to day role . Also we discussed about what is expected of Nursing Associates in our job role and to know our limitations on what we can and cannot do as a Nursing Associate.
Moving forward I have learn what is expected of me as a Nursing Associate and how to implement the NMC 6Cs in my day to day care delivery as well uphold and promote British values in my line of duty, and also apply duty of candour in my practice.
ANATOMY OF PHYSIOLOGY : SYSTEM, CELLS AND HOMEOSTATIC
During the afternoon section we discussed about the body system and cells and the concept of homeostatic. I also learnt about Anatomical positions which tells us about our body positioning and language when dealing with Patients in our role as a Nursing Associate.
we went further to discuss the Anatomical positioning which includes , Standing upright, Forward facing, arms at the side, Palms forward, Feet parallel as well as knowing Patients positioning from the right and left positioning when dealing with people in our line of duty. we also discussed the level of organisation of the body which includes the Chemical level, Cellular level, Tissue level, Organ level, Organ system level and the organismal level.
We learnt about Zygote , which is formed when the ovum and spermatozoon fuse, and that Normal cells know when to divide to create new cells, repair or die.
We discussed about Homeostasis which is described as the body’s ability to maintain relatively stable internal body conditions . we went further in this section to discussed the 2 examples of Homeostasis mechanism which is Blood glucose and Blood pressure.
Moving forward I know the 5 essentials of survival in the human body which is water, temperature, nutrients , oxygen and pressure as well as the types of skin cells that can become cancerous . Also I know how to response to hypothermia . I will also put into practice the Anatomical body positioning in my line of duty as a Nursing Associate.
