Pets come ti visit (pag 52)

Patricia Stevens, a nurse was in the hospital and didn't want to see friends or family, but wanted to see her dog. He managed to convince the doctor and they showed him his dog at the hospital entrance. As soon as he saw her, the dog wagged his tail towards her. Some studies have claimed that visits from pets calm, reassure, and die patients. Les Ann Matura, a nurse, tells of a woman who had lung cancer, she would not get up or speak. One day her dog visits her and he seemed happy, in fact he even started talking. Not all home anal visits have this great result, but they help a lot.
However it is important to have a clear policy and list of rules or guidelines before people are allowed to visit.

MANDATORY -- 2nd year -- What makes a good nurse? What skills are needed?Why do you think you will be a good nurse?

alessiacurci02 — 2022-11-24 16:03:04 UTC

A good nurse must be able to combine professional skills with the kindness and availability that must be reserved for the patient. It is also essential to carry out this work with passion and dedication. The senior nurse must know that lack of knowledge can lead to adverse patient outcomes, therefore ignorance is not an excuse but rather one's responsibility. The necessary skills are clinical and theoretical. Must have technical-organizational skills to plan and carry out assistance interventions. Must possess knowledge of first aid techniques. The skills in approaching the patient are also fundamental, making him gain trust, therefore empathy and relational skills. I'm not sure I'll be a good nurse, but I'll use all my strength to be. I will never stop learning and making my knowledge available to contribute to the patient care process. I will also always try to support and motivate the patient in the healing process.

alessiacurci02 — 2022-11-25 17:40:45 UTC

My tutor is a 37 year old young nurse.
From the beginning I got along very well with her. She is someone who is not opinionated and conceited, rather she is very humble and nice in the ways she has. She is very exhaustive in her explanations and is always available to resolve any doubts. Of her I really admire the passion and dedication with which she does her job and the respect she has for her patients. Not to mention the mastery of her theoretical and practical knowledge of the nursing profession. I am very happy to have met her because she is teaching me a lot and I am learning a lot.

Mandatory -- 3rd year -- Your future:
What type of structure do you imagine working in? How do you imagine your career? Write 75-100 words

The structure I have always wanted to work is in the children’s hospital, particularly in the neonatal department. Since I was little i’ve always had the desire to dedicate myself to newborns, therefore working in the nursery. But since I started my internship experience my idea has changed, in fact being close to children who unfortunately have pathologies has made me grow a lot and has made me change my vision of my future career. Now I imagine my career in a pediatric hospital to be close to and assist the child during the course of his illness.

Write 150 words about your experience with one of your clinical tutors.

The figure of the tutor during the internship experience is fundamental. One of my tutors who is particularly close to my heart is called Albina. From the first moment we established a relationship of empathy and mutual trust. She was always ready to explain to me anything regarding the procedures that had to be carried out during the training hours, and she made me put them into practice, trusting me and transmitting serenity during the execution. When I was in difficulty she was always ready to help and support me. She was very serious during professional practice, but when we managed to have a few minutes of break it created a lightness that took you away from the hours of hard work. She made me feel like a colleague, therefore on an equal footing with her and not a student, this gave me strength and made me believe in myself a lot. Even today, even though I no longer train in his department, we have a confidential and friendly relationship.
