The Importance Of Reflection And Patient Engagement For Improving Patient Care Experience

Background Information

Reflection is a way of thinking and working for Registered Nurses and is useful in raising our conscious awareness of aspects of care that may or may not be hidden from our view. This raised awareness about these aspects of care improves our understanding as nurses and assist us in directing action strategies that can improve both the patient and their family’s experience and the ‘partnering in care’ strategies that we utilise. Improving the ‘patient care experience and partnering in care’ and using Gibbs Reflective cycle (1988) as a framework in combination with drawing upon relevant theory provides a foundation for nurses to operate from and as such is required for task 2.

  1. Description: (guide only 120 words)Describe the patient’s experience. Aim to focus on a particular relevant aspect, identify key themes and justify these themes of care focus.
  1. Feelings and Thoughts: Describe and examine your feelings and thoughts in response to your description. Identify the values and beliefs that connect you to your feelings and thoughts and evaluate your response to the patient’s experience in terms of those feelings and thoughts. For example, why did you feel that way?
  2. Values and Beliefs: Describe some values and beliefs of yours that may have impacted on your feelings and thoughts about what went on. After reflecting about the ‘values and beliefs’ that connect to your feelings and thoughts, identify where these values and beliefs originate from? Why are these values and beliefs important? Who are they important to and why? Are they important to you, the patient and the patient’s family?
  1. Analysis Analyse the patient experience and partnering in care case scenario, identify and explain the care displayed in the case scenario (inadequate and adequate care).  Draw upon some literature to support your analysis of the case scenario and relate it to the scenario by providing examples.Aim to make sense of this patient experience in terms of how you reacted to it.
  1. Conclusions Drawn: Identify the conclusions/new meanings that can be drawn here.
  1. Action Plan: Describe an action plan that you would initiate based on your conclusions and say how this action plan you describe will improve patient care?
