I chose to go into the field of nursing after participating in nursing oriented classes at high school. In these classes I was able to receive hands-on experience caring for patients in a nursing home. I felt as if I was able to make a difference in patient's lives by being able to connect with them in a way that is only possible by being their nurse. Originally I found interest in the healthcare field after having speech therapy as a young child. I wanted to go into speech pathology when I first
The change theory that could work for this proposed programme would be Rogers’ theory of ‘Diffusion of innovation’ and Lewin’s (1951) ‘Force Field Analysis’ (FFA). Rogers’ theory of Diffusion of innovation is the process of innovation communicated with participants to create and share information with one another in order to reach an equal understanding over time (Rogers, 2010). Rogers’ (2010) theory involved events when the change agent seeks to persuade a client to adopt an innovation. In relation

The medical field is a prestigious line of work that requires many hours of school and restless nights. The following are just three of the thousands of careers in the medical field. Nursing, biomedical engineering, and medical receptionist, are three very different careers with three very different roles. Nursing deals with directly communicating with patients and doctors above the position. Nurses oversee patient care, without being in charge of patient care, meaning nurses do all the work doctors
In order to provide a good experience is important to have an interdisciplinary collaboration. In a medical field working in team is important. This is crucial for the benefit of the patient and his or her environment. To provide a good experience for the patient there has to be collaboration from everyone. This includes health visitors, district nurses, midwives, physiotherapists, pharmacists, counselors, practice nurses within primary health care teams, psychiatrists, social workers, occupational
When I completed my ADN program, I viewed the role of nursing as a process of caring and developing patient relationships. Nursing is selfless at its core; it is caring and compassionate; it is respectful, honest and genuine; it advocates for the helpless and assists the ill to a state of optimum health.

Being a practice-based profession, nursing needs mentors to support students in clinical setting, as working with practitioners will help learning in a safe, supported and educationally modified environment (Beckett, 1984).

The role of a mentor is crucial in developing future generations of nurses and midwives. The mentor facilitates the learning environment that students
