| Reflective account: |
| What was the nature of the CPD activity and/or practice-related feedback and/or event or experience in your practice? |
| This is a reflection on how I feel about going from a foundation degree level to a bachelors degree of nursing.
|
| What did you learn from the CPD activity and/or feedback and/or event or experience in your practice? |
| During my time doing a foundation degree it was a lot more about health and its history. Lots of essay writing and spending time online in lectures.
I didn’t feel like I fit in when I was doing a foundation degree. Also I never asked questions. I found the work overwhelming.
|
| How did you change or improve your practice as a result? |
| Nursing degree is a lot more hands on. I like that I can learn practically as well as writing it helps me think a lot better. I also have made lots of great friendships in my nursing degree I think this has boosted my confidence a lot more. I think I have changed by being more open minded and accepting that not everyone will agree all the time.
I now ask for help when needed. I get extra time and never knew this was possible it benefits me from feeling not overwhelmed and gives me the time I need to focus.
|
| How is this relevant to the Code?
Select one or more themes: Prioritise people – Practise effectively – Preserve safety – Promote professionalism and trust |
| I think this shows practice effectively as I know my strengths and limits.
I have seen what needed to change when I came into my nursing degree.
