I wanted to pass my driving test and the weeks leading up to this I didn’t feel I was doing my best. My driving instructor didn’t have any faith in me and I was dissapointed in myself. I needed to get a bit more practise in so this is what I did the weeks leading up to my test, I was very nervous as it was the first time. Even though my driving instructor had a negative attitude I didn’t let this get me down and tried to keep calm and positive on the day of my test. I passed and was very proud of myself, and what I had achieved.

My long term target is to pass Professional Practice in Health and Social Care and to achieve this and help me gain more knowledge, I will set aside 1 hour per week which I will dedicate to reading articles and journals related to midwifery. I will either do this in an evening when I can concentrate and take in the information or I could split the hour into two half hour sessions and do this in the lrc at lunchtime. Doing an hour per week is achievable as I believe I will find out plenty of information without feeling I am stressing myself out as I need to take into consideration my other responsibilities that I have.

To gain my placement hours for the foundation degree. I need to complete my Doula training, in order to do this I must keep on top of the assignments and my learning journal. I’ve set myself a plan for after every training session to come home and write up my reflective journal. I also intend to make sure I answer the relevant questions from my work booklet the same week as the training. This will be a positive learning experience to add to my other qualifications, for my long time goal of becoming a midwife. In four weeks I will review this target to make sure I have acchived my goals and on the way to completing my target.

My SMART target is to get my placement sorted early in order to make sure that I get my 200 hours in instead of rushing at the last minute.

In order to do this I will be more proactive about finding a working placement and sorting out my DBS. In order to do this I will start researching ASAP and get in contact with different places.

This should be achievable by starting early and getting my DBS sorted before I start looking so I can start ASAP.

I would like to achieve this hopefully by the end of October and in order to do it I will put time aside on a Saturday morning to look research into what placements are available.

This is relevant as my college course requires me to have the 200 hours in order to pass my course.
This target is important as in the long run it will help me get a place at university.

Me and my cousin made plans together to go to an event. She was ruining several hours late without an explanation.
I completely ran out of patience. Before putting the phone down on her I stubbornly said not to bother Picking me up anymore as I had changed my mind about going.
She immediately called me back explaining why she was running late and that she was infact only 10-15 minutes away from my house.
She ended up picking me up and we attended the event together as planned, so losing my temper in the first place was childish and pointless.

My target would be to control my emotions, communicate effectively and to have patience during situations that upset me.

I would measure my progress by keeping a diary of real life events of these kinds of situations occurring, documenting how I manage my emotions and behaviour.

I believe doing this to manage my emotions and seeing what aspects I can improve on will be 100% affective and achievable in improving my behaviour and character

Setting this target is very relevant for the line of work I am wanting to go in. An example of this would be, a patent that is being difficult, rude and unreasonable. I would then use my personal target development to stay professional and patient.

I would time my success for the duration of the course (sept-June). I will then reflect back on my personal success and achievements :)

I need to be more on time and need to make sure I get to class before the class starts. And I need to make sure I’m not right on time , I need to give myself a bit of time beforehand.

S: To change this I need to be more practical and think beforehand. I need to make sure I am aware of what time my class starts and I need to make sure I am aware of what time the bus is or how busy the roads are etc.

M: What needs to be done is that I need to make sure I go for the bus on time or set off walking in the right time so I am not late. I need to plan my journey way in advance to make sure I am not late and also to make sure I turn up in plenty of time before my class starts.  I can also measure this by making sure I have the time on me all the time for example a watch or to have my phone on me all the time so I am always are of the time.

A: This is achievable as I know what I need to do to change this and I have a plan of how I am going to achieve this. For example plan ahead make sure I know how long it will take me to get to college and how long my journey will take me. I understand why sometimes I am late and I know how to change this.

R: This is revelant because I need to be on time in a health and social care setting because people may relay on me and I may be needed etc. But also it is needed to day to day life as if I have a job even in health and social care etc it’s not acceptable to be late and being late might mean consequences etc. Also just being a bit early means you aren’t stressed and rushing around at the last minute I means you have a more simple and easy shift or time and doesn’t mean you are stressed or are worried which can affect you etc.

T: time I want to be make this target a lot better ASAP as I will need it all the time. Even tho I am not always late and it isn’t a huge issue for me right now I would still like to make sure I am at my needed place well before I’m needed.

My SMART Target is to be able to improve my bad temper and control my angry in any situation. I want to improve my attitude with people around me whenever I disagreeing someone’s opinions or decisions.

In order to do that, I will need to practice to be more patient and reasonable. Try to understand others’ perspective and ideas.

This can be achieved if I want to achieve it and concentrate enough to able to have a normal conversation without having any issue disagrees others.

This is relevant because to be able to achieve the goal I want to do in the future, I will need to be have a lot patience in me. Especially to the patients who I will need to take care of. Having a bad temper in a healthcare setting would be very unprofessional.

As soon as possible before I start to work in healthcare setting.

I failed my driving test before I passed and he was really harsh on me. At the end he asked me if I wanted to know what I failed on and I aggressively said no.
S: to change this, I need to think before I react and think about the tones of my voice and body language but also work on being calm in under pressure situations. If this was in a placement setting I would be in trouble.
M: what needs to be done is me controlling how I act under pressure and go through why I reacted in this way plus the consequences.
A: this is highly able to do due to me knowing what I need to work on and picturing this in different situations allows me to create an understanding of this.
R: make sure I put into practice my skills whilst in a placement setting so I am able to thoroughly work on allowing the service user feel safe relaxed.
T: between now and the middle of October

Event;
I had incomplete work from my lesson and I didn’t bother to complete it when I got home. Therefore, for my next lesson I didn’t understand what I had done. I also didn’t complete one of my homesworks which was related to the topic. This meant that I had to give up an hour of my time to catch up.
SMART Target;
S = I will try and get my homework done, as well as complete any work I haven’t completed, within the week it was set.
M = I will measure this by checking my work book to see if there is any work I haven’t completed and for work that has been set to do.
A = This is an achievable goal if I keep a track of my own work and understanding and make sure to check my work.
R = I will check my work book daily.
T = I will make sure to do this every week.

SMART TARGET

S: Complete my first year of this course with a grade above 60%.

M: To measure this, I can examine my grades for each unit (ideally should have over 60% for each assessment).

A: This is achievable, if I put the effort in and submit the work in on time.

R: It is realistic, as the work is graded from 40% as a pass upwards. 60% is a grade that is realistic as there will be some units I do better in than others. However this grade is better for university applications.

T: By June/July next year.Complete my first year of this course with a grade above 60%.
