Narrative Reflection
Students will reflect on an episode of patient care that exemplifies their approach to professional nursing practice. We will use the criteria from the clinical domain of the UWHC Nursing Clinical Advancement Program (NCAP) to guide this reflection. Components of the clinical domain include the following: primary nursing, therapeutic relationships, diversity and cultural congruency, ethical decision making, assessment, diagnosis, outcome identification, implementation, evaluation. PROCESS (adapted from the UWHC Nursing Clinical Advancement Program) 1. Begin by identifying a patient care story that exemplifies your nursing practice. 2. Spend time reflecting on that story – break down what occurred: a. What were your roles/responsibilities? b. What were your thoughts in the moment? c. What actions did you take and why? d. How did you reflect upon the experience afterwards?). e. The Tanner Clinical Reflection Example may be a helpful in getting started. 3. Consider the Clinical Domain Components of the UWHC NCAP Model as you continue to reflect on this story. Identify the criteria that can be addressed with this story–you may be surprised by how many criteria can be addressed with a single story. 4. Write the narrative describing the story while addressing 1-2 items from at least seven components of the clinical domain. You may explicitly identify up to two Clinical Components that were not part of the patient care story, along with a desсrіption as to why they were not applicable to your role in this specific patient care story. 5. Make sure you have paid careful attention to HIPAA privacy concerns. SUBMISSION • The submission should be a cohesive narrative. You do not have to divide it into separate clinical domains with headers for each domain; rather, please use supersсrіpts1, 3, 4 to tag each domain covered. Use the numbering below for your supersсrіpts: 1. Nursing Care Delivery System: Primary Nursing 2. Therapeutic Relationships 3. Diversity and Cultural Congruency 4. Ethical Decision Making 5. Assessment 6. Diagnosis 7. Outcome Identification/ Plan of Care 8. Implementation 9. Evaluation • Please submit a Word (or similar) document of no more than three single-spaced pages, by the due date. The font should be 12 point, Times New Roman (or similar); margins should be 1″ on all sides. • Put your name, the course number, and the assignment title (Narrative Reflection) at the top of the first page. Do not include a cover page. • HIPAA is not being explicitly graded; however, points will be deducted for including protected patient identifiers in your submission (up to a loss of all points for including the patient′s full name or similar explicit identifiers). • Turnitin is on for this assignment and should give you immediate feedback. Please consider using that feedback to modify/improve your assignment prior to the due date (we will only grade the last document submitted).
