What is your personal philosophy of nursing?I personally believe that nursing is the Achilles of the healthcare. Without nursing hospitals wont be able to function at such an effective rate. Nursing is the total care of the patient in any clinical/non clinical setting. Taking into effect all of the patients current needs while addressing their HPI, progress, and aftercare all within 3 days! Medicine has evolved to wear now surgeons use robotics to perform surgeries. Taking away the hands to make more precise incisions and better outcomes. Nurses are not replaceable. The caring compassion that a nurse has is rare and the few that are staffed throughout hospital across the United States are severely underappreciated. Nursing is miracle work.
What is your professional philosophy of nursing? As a nurse we have the responsibility to care and nurture the public back to healthy standards while ensuring their safety. We must treat every patient with the respect and dignity that every person deserves regardless of anything. Once you begin to treat the patient like they were family that’s when the real healing begins.
What theory do your place of work use to guide practice?Virginia Hudson – She emphasized the importance of increasing a client’s independence to promote their continued healing progress after hospitalization. Her definition of nursing was one of the first to mark the difference between nursing and medicine. “The unique function of the nurse is to assist the individual, sick or well, in the performance of those activities contributing to health or its recovery (or to peaceful death) that he would perform unaided if he had the necessary strength, will, or knowledge. And to do this in such a way as to help him gain independence as rapidly as possible. She must in a sense, get inside the skin of each of her patients in order to know what he needs.”
How would you handle a crisis?In nursing you learn that handling any crisis, which you can take into real life, requires you to be a great listener. Using your eyes to see things that were missed. Using your voice to heal and not stir up more anger. I try to approach every crisis like there is a resolution, instead of defending one side of it.
How would you deal with someone not satisfied with patient care?Truly assess the current situation. You have take the role of the other in both parties. Understanding what the complaint is and why the request wasn’t fulfilled. Showing empathy.
How long have you worked in the medical field?10 years
Education?BSN
Certifications?RN-BC, ACLS & BLS AHA Instructor, CSRN
Any advice for me?Pick an area of nursing that you know you love so deeply that when you see something wrong with the bigger picture it motivates you to make a change.
What involvement do you have with health promotion, risk reduction and disease prevention?I work closely with nursing sister departments like Education, Infection Control, and employee health. Always generating new ideas and implementations to take to the floors
What was your greatest challenge facing nursing today? MAKE THIS SHIT UP TOO
Why did you choose nursing?I chose nursing because it was a great field in the study that I love “medicine”. I loved hospitals since I was a little kid and always told myself that I would work in a hospital when I grow up.

What do you love about being a nurseThat thank you I got at the point of discharge. People don’t realize how vulnerable patients truly are being in the hospital at decreased health. To hear the patient or family thank me for doing something as easy as my job with love, gives me a lot of reward to continue to move forward.
***They are questions that were applied for the interview please apply these questions to the essay.Any information that wasnt filled can you please fill in question.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS

Discussion Questions (DQ)

• Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.
• Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.
• One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.
• I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

Weekly Participation

• Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
• In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
• Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
• Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

APA Format and Writing Quality

• Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
• Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
• I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.

Use of Direct Quotes

• I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.
• As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.
• It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

LopesWrite Policy

• For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.
• Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.
• Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own?
• Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.

Late Policy

• The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.
• Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.
• If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.
• I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.
• As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.

Communication

• Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me:
  • Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.
  • Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
