Step 1.

Reflect and critically appraise a relational experience during your nursing clinical rotation. It can be many things including, interpersonal interactions (nurse-client, nurse-nurse, nurse-other), approaches, and communication events while focusing on an interpersonal experience.

What happened?

What was your role?

How did your experience impact you?

What was your reaction?

Feelings, emotions?

What made the experience stand out to you?

Step 2.

Apply knowledge of at least 3 concepts from the Relational Practice course to analyze what factors were involved in this situation and how the

experience may have been handled differently. Some questions that might help your analysis:

• Why do you think it might have happened?

• How might the situation have been handled differently?

• What did you learn?

• What were your strengths and your areas for improvement?

• What learning opportunities did you identify through your experience?

• What do you need to learn to improve your practice?

• What did you learn that you will continue to use throughout your practice?

• Did you experience any challenges? If so, what were they? How did you manage them?

Step 3:

Describe how you intend to move forward in your nursing practice in the future. Some questions that might help your thinking:

What do you think will change, if anything, in terms of how you work in the future?
Why are these changes important?
How will you adapt to these changes?

Based on your reflection, what areas of your nursing knowledge, skill, and judgment can you identify as needing professional development?
How will addressing these areas help you maintain or improve your nursing knowledge, skills, or judgment?
