Pass Fail 23 CLINICAL PORTFOLIO The following CNO Entry to Practice competencies may be incorporated: Clinician 1.1 – 1.27 Educator 8.1-8.4 Student Comments: On the unit I have been able to experience multi-disciplinary team collaboration in regards to patient care. Understanding how team members such as PTs, OTs, Dietitians, PSWs, RNs, and RPNs work together allows me to better understand how to care for my patients. For example, one of my patients had low blood pressure in the morning and therefore I relayed my clinical judgement to the physio team which allowed my patient more time to rest before partaking in physiotherapy. Student Comments: I have continued to participate in performing multiple nursing skills. For instance, completing admission documentation as well as receiving admission reports from other units, preparing discharge documents as well as discharge teaching, performing multiple wound care/dressing change. A scenario where I have displayed criticalreflective practice was when one of my patients was having multiple loose bowel movements. I looked to see if the patient had any anti-diarrheals and noticed a PRN Immodium was available and I communicated the problem and intervention to the charge nurse to see if it was appropriate. I have also had the chance to participate in a kardex round where I learned how patient and pertinent nursing details are updated.

(Linked with 4th year level goal #4) Fail Pass Fail 24 CLINICAL PORTFOLIO The following CNO Entry to Practice competencies may be incorporated: Scholar 9.1-9.8 Student Comments: I have been able to experience many new nursing skills thus far. On the unit I have been able to apply skills such as administering SubQ medications where multiple patients have praised me for administering the medication so painless and well, administering fleet enemas, obtaining nasopharangeal COVID-19 swabs, receiving admission reports from hospitals, removing saline locks and transcribing newly admitted medication to the unit’s system. I am always ready and looking for opportunities to learn on the unit. Preceptor/CCD Comments: Vince has also participated in transcribing new medication orders, attended an IPAC meeting. I will continue to seek opportunities for Vince to practice and learn. Student Comments: As the semester ends, some more of the new skills I have learned are completing the whole admission process (documentation, admission report and initial HTT assessment), inquiring for COVID-19 vaccination consent, administering a Flu shot, acquiring admission MRSA swabs of nose and rectum, acquiring C+S swabs for infected sites (G-Tube Sites) applying a new libre scanner, learned the nightshift workflow and discontinuing a holter monitor. Also, I have experienced an ethical dilemma of whether to administer or hold scheduled narcotics to a patient who appeared drunk. After assessing the patient’s cognitive function and blood test results, it was revealed that the patient was under the influence of alcohol and scheduled narcotics were held due to drug interaction with alcohol. Preceptor/CCD Comments: Vince continues to practice documentation for example admission report and initial HTT assessment, inquiring for and practising vaccination consent, administering a Flu shot, acquiring admission MRSA swabs of nose and rectum, acquiring 10 point C+S swabs for infected sites (G-Tube Sites), applying a new libre scanner, learned the nightshift workflow and discontinuing a holter monitor. Vince initiated and participated in the care planning of a patient with addiction/substance abuse. This provided opportunities to participate in Ethics, safety, assessment, seeking assistance from the interdisciplinary team and the importance of each role. Vince continues to seek knowledge for 25 CLINICAL PORTFOLIO personal and professional growth demonstrated through his questions and seeking knowledge from peers. Course Outcome #5: Establish and maintain 2nd Entry and Collaborative relationships with nursing colleagues, interprofessional team members, and clients/communities. (Linked with 4th year level goal #5) The following CNO Entry to Practice competencies may be incorporated: Communicator 3.1 – 3.8 Collaborator 4.1 – 4.5 Coordinator 5.1 – 5.9 Pass Fail Student Comments: I have had many experiences collaborating with colleagues on the unit. For instance, I was performing a head to toe assessment on a patient and helped one of the PSWs obtain the patient’s weight with a hoyer lift. Also, I had a patient who was extremely constipated and was unable to go to the bathroom and I performed a bowel assessment. I noted that the patient did not eat his lunch provided to him at all and upon giving report, I notified the dietitan that he did not eat his lunch. I have also collaborated with the physio team by letting them know the patients vitals such as blood pressure values so that they know whether the patient can partake in physiotherapy or not. Pass Fail Student Comments: As the semester ends, I have learned to collaborate more with colleagues on the unit. I continued to work with physio/OT, PSWs, dietitans, MDs, RNs, and RPNs. In the beginning, I have worked with multiple RNs/RPNs with medpass and eventually I began to complete full med pass of a full side (West/East side) independently while seeking assistance as needed. 26 CLINICAL PORTFOLIO Course Outcome #6: Demonstrate leadership for the advancement of the nursing profession in all areas of practice. (Linked with 4th year level goal #6) The following CNO Entry to Practice competencies may be incorporated: Leader 6.1 – 6.11 Preceptor/CCD Comments: Vince was assigned to a 4 patient assignment, provided full care as per Kardex with the assistance of the PSW and co-ordinated med pass with RPN.

Vince has demonstrated his ability to provide care to patients, develop a careplan, implement/ coordinate and communicate care to the team, and evaluate patient’s progress. He maintains a respectful code of conduct with all team members and patients. From TOC report to end of shift, Vince demonstrates his collaboration and daily planning efficiently. Pass Pass Fail Student Comments: On the unit, I strive to take iniative/leadership by partaking in opportunities that are given to me. For instance, I was asked whether if I wanted to swab a potentially Covid positive patient and I hopped on the opportunity to do so in order to gain experience. Whenever I notice that something needs to be done, I take initiative and do it. For instance, when I see specimens that need to be taken to the lab, I confirm whether they need to be taken and go right away. I also stock up PPE such as gowns whenever I notice that the supply out on the floor is low. Fail Student Comments: I have shown leadership skills in multiple scenarios. For instance, since I have done multiple admission reports, I delegated an admission report for a Pre-grad RPN student to do. First, I demonstrated how to receive an admission report and how to go over the report profile. Then I answered any questions the Pre-grad RPN student had while supporting the student RPN during the report. I also displayed leadership by taking on the role of the main assessor and supportive assessor during admission HTT examinations with other nursing students. I strive to take initiative/leadership and I show that through my desire to help others. 27 CLINICAL PORTFOLIO Course Outcome #7: Advocate for and support healthy organizational and public policy to promote health of individuals, families, groups, communities and/or global populations.

Pass Pass Fail Student Comments: I believe that I have been advocating for and supporting healthy organizational and public policies to promote the health of individuals on the unit. For instance, one of the lab nurses went up to our floor and asked why she needed to wear PPE to enter the room and I explained that our new admissions are on heightened precautions due to potential exposure to Covid-19 on their previous unit. This ensured the safety Fail Student Comments: As the semester ends, I believe that I continued to advocate for and support healthy organizational and public policy to promote the health of indivduals on the unit. For instance, when the unit had a Covid outbreak, I adhered to appropriate PPE and IPAC as well as reminded patients to be in appropriate PPE and practice good IPAC. Advocating for appropriate PPE and 28 CLINICAL PORTFOLIO of both the lab nurse and the patient that was receiving care. practicing IPAC decreased the chance of Covid infection spread. Preceptor/CCD Comments: Vince has excellent observational skills. He is confident in communicating IPAC/Public health policy on the unit with PSW. Goal – provide more opportunity for Vince to communicate with families. Vince will use public health guidelines and review policies.

He was very observant and caught some mistakes during admission medication reconciliation and was able to confidently communicate this with the CN to fix it. Vince provided health teaching to family and patient on discharge. 29 CLINICAL PORTFOLIO Course Outcome #8: Provide culturally sensitive nursing care that honours human dignity, diversity, and different ways of being. (Linked with 4th year level goals #8) The following CNO Entry to Practice competencies may be incorporated: Clinician 1.1-1.27 Pass Fail Pass Fail Student Comments: On a couple occasions, I noticed that patients had televisions that would be playing scheduled mass. I offered privacy and made sure the television would be loud enough for them to hear. I also had conversations with patients on the topic of God and how important God is to the patients. I made sure that I understood and respected their cultural perspectives. Student Comments: I provided culturally sensitive nursing care to a patient from India. I noticed that the patient was playing Indian music and asked him if he was praying in which it turns out he was. I supported his cultural background and offered privacy while respecting and honouring the human dignity.

Midterm Evaluation Final Evaluation Strengths (identified by Student): I believe that my strengths lie in my organizational skills, time management skills, and willingness. I exemplify my organizational and time management skills through medication administration. I have developed a routine where I am now able to efficiently administer medication safely and in a timely manner. Furthermore, I am always advocating for my personal experience by seeking new opportunities to learn something new on the unit. Strengths (identified by Student): As the semester ends, I strongly believe that my strengths lie in my organizational skills, time management skills and my ability to take initiative. I now also believe that my other strengths are my communication skills, and being able to interpret a situation using critical thinking. Furthermore, I continued to advocate for myself by seeking opportunities to learn something new on the unit. I have also learned how to appropriately handle patients who have dementia/sundowning by understanding their situation. Strengths (identified by Preceptor/Clinical Course Director): Vince has very strong communication and organizational skills. He brings his theoretical and skills knowledge and demonstrates exceptional patient care. He is always seeking opportunities to learn more. He practices his critical thinking skills and reacts appropriately. He has strong assessment skills and practices them daily. Strengths (identified by Preceptor/Clinical Course Director): Communication, organizational skills, self reflection on his practice, also seeking assistance with the interdisciplinary team are Vince’s strengths. Areas of Development (identified by Student): I believe that I need to work on my ability to be confident and when facing patients who are argumentative due to dementia/sundowning. For instance, I had a patient who needed to be PCR tested for Covid-19 and the patient had multiple reasons to refuse. This made me feel flustered and I was unable to provide an answer. I found myself having to rely on another nurse to come and convince the patient to have a PCR test done. Areas of Development (identified by Student): As the semester ends, some areas of development that I find I need to work on just a little more is completing a med pass a bit faster. Although I finish at an appropriate time (morning med pass), at times when there are new admissions, I find myself being slowed down due to being unfamiliar with new admission medication, however I understand that it is also important to be extremely thorough so I take my time with unfamiliarities. CLINICAL PORTFOLIO 31 Areas of Development (identified by Preceptor/Liaison): (Planned Night and Evening Shifts) Delegation of duties and responsibilities of the nursing team to unregulated care providers. We will review and practice care planning. Process and support chain when confronting challenges. Review Ethics. Areas of Development (identified by Preceptor/Liaison): Vince can proceed with confidence that his development will come with more practice and experience. Student General Comments: So far I am learning a lot on the unit. On the unit I have been able to apply new skills such as administering SubQ medications, administering fleet enemas, obtaining nasopharangeal COVID19 swabs, receiving admission reports from hospitals, transcribing newly admitted medication to the unit’s system, removing saline locks, and obtaining blood glucose levels and understanding the blood glucose value significance. I am looking forward to successfully achieve my learning plan and find more learning opportunities on this unit. Student General Comments: As the semester ends, I can confidently say that I have learned a lot on the unit. I had an amazing preceptor who guided me from day one with patience. My preceptor has given me many opportunities to expand my knowledge in the nursing field and I will apply the experience I had at my placement into my future nursing career. Preceptor General Comments: Vince’s skills have been excellent this semester. I would like to include more careplanning next semester and involve Vince in the interdisciplinary admission to discharge process. Great work so far. Preceptor General Comments: Vince, please continue with your passion, care, and kindness. You have all of the qualities of an excellent Nurse. Always remember why you came into this profession.
