After remediating my medical-surgical adaptive assessment, I once again noticed that I was not taking enough time to go over the questions and the options presented to me. I also noticed that I had changed my answers quite frequently. In the future I will make sure I fully read both the question and options before I submit my answer.

I was able to see the good, bad, and ugly of nursing to see what I what kind of nurse I want to be and the kind that I don’t want anybody to be. The kind of nurse I want to be is one that can get things done, while keeping a good trusting relationship…

I chose this painting by Vanessa Michalak because I feel like it’s a good representation of what nurses go through. No matter what happens, chaotic or not nurses seem to have everything under control, even if it’s far from it. This painting shows that this work is hard, messy and things may even get out of hand. But, no matter what nurses will try their best to have everything under control. That means a lot to me because I want…
