Any of from learning modules.

You are required to read the markers comments on your Critical Reflection Part A.(which I have attached as reflection part A file). These comments will help you with your Part B Reflection.

Use the Gibbs Reflective Cycle Framework, as you did for Part A Reflection to guide your writing. Please review the rubric for Part B Reflection, it is similar to the Part A Reflection Rubric but it differs in that it asks you to apply your learning to culturally safe nursing/midwifery practice.

Review the link below which offers a suggested structure for your Part B Critical Reflection. (I have attached a ppt file for that). There is no audio attached. A minimum of five references is required. The references are not in the word count and can be older that 5 years.

You are following the same structure as in Part A (based on the Gibbs Reflective Cycle) but there is an added requirement that you demonstrate your understanding of culturally competent nursing care when looking after Aboriginal people as stated in the Unit Learning Outcomes (ULO's) numbers 5 and 6 .

5 Explain the importance of cultural safety and culturally appropriate care and service provision for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

6 Apply critical reflection on own values and attitudes towards cultural safety and the provision of health care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and communities.
