The nurse finds out that the patient is almost ignored by the nurses, he has not given any proper wound care, personal hygiene care, and emotional care. The nurses who care the patient, talk in front of him as though the patient is deaf. The nursing student saw this action and cared for the patient. The nursing student holds the patient hand and spends time and could see some relief in the patient. Later, the nursing student complains the issue to her clinical instructor, who responded to the nursing student issue. The instructor could find that this patient is being badly ignored by the nurses.

Later, after two days, the patient dies, the student nurse had little satisfaction that she cared for him at his end stage of life.

- "During my interview with S.P., I learned about her vital role in ensuring patient safety and well-being through high-quality care. She collaborates closely with doctors and nurses, sharing important information about her patients. However, S.P. also faces challenges, particularly with communication barriers that can delay care and create misunderstandings. What stood out to me was our shared belief in the importance of interprofessional collaboration. We both agree that effective teamwork not only improves patient outcomes but also enhances efficiency, leading to more comprehensive care and better health overall." make this sound more human writingarrow_forwardwhich nursing theory aligns with your philosophy?arrow_forwardProfessional identity in the nursing profession today?arrow_forward
