Hello Dr. DeVoe and classmates, currently working on a surgical intensive care unit (SICU) for the past 7 years, before that worked on an open heart ICU for 16 years. I have been a nurse for over 30 years and started as an LPN and achieved my BSN in the year 2000. Have been a preceptor for many years but have no experience in curriculum development, so this will be a new journey for me. Live in Queens in NYC, care for my mother who has Alzheimer's disease. Have only one son and have an 18 year old granddaughter who is attending college, with a goal to be a nurse. Looking forward to learning from this class and…

My second practicum is fast approaching and I am feeling enthusiastic to learn more about nursing skills and tasks. My aim is to learn nursing objectives and the Registered Nurse aims towards their patient’s recovery. I understand that the patients in rehab ward are all under recovery of some type of trauma from surgery fall or unhealthy wound conditions. I would like to know the nurse’s aims of recovery of a patient within 2 weeks. This will give me an assumption of expectation of healing of patients set by registered nurses.…
By utilizing the information presented in this class, I was able to learn, apply and document via a written paper information on Erikson’s developmental stages and Butler’s Life Review. I was able to practice my interviewing skill during my interview of R.V. The take away I had with his interview is that it takes work to be successful and you have to have balance in your life. It may not come when you are at the peak of working or during education, but you must find the balance. I have enjoyed my time in this class and I will use he skills that I have learned and I will apply the information that I read as I enter into my practice as a nurse and hopefull as a nurse…

To maintain a safe environment for toddlers can be quite a challenge. They think they can do most anything at this age. I make sure that their toys are developmentally appropriate and encourage their curiosity.…
I find my practicum experience to be a real assert to the agency I am with currently, because I can assist others with the knowledge acquired.1 It is also great in providing hands-on learning, which is in stride with the real world.1 This experience is affording me the opportunity to deal with actual issues confronting a population and increasing my commitment to working in the public health environment.…
Throughout my practicum experience, I have demonstrated a clear commitment to uphold the principles that should govern a democratic and pluralistic community. I created a class constitution which outlined a set of fair classroom expectations. Each student signed this constitution without delay, and such a mutual understanding allowed for me to effectively manage the classroom. I am proud of the level of respect and care that was evident in each of my classes as a result of this measure. The importance of respect for self, and others within the classroom and beyond was emphasized during my practicum. When I heard students putting themselves down, I made every attempt to encourage students to think and speak more positively. Moreover, I worked…
