Part One: Professional interactions
Journal entry one
This is the experience that I had with patient 1 who had chronic depression and ideation. NMBA standard 5.1 requires the nurse to promote positive professional working relationships with members of the multidisciplinary team. When collecting the information I was guided by standard 4.2 for accurate and comprehensive documentation of each assessment from the patient. In this case, I encouraged the patient to talk and listened keenly to gather cues that can inform the care process on the patient. Standard 7.3 requires the enrolled nurse to communicate effectively through use of a variety of communication methods and respect the views of the patient. In this case, I was communicating well with the patient as a way of ensuring that I give her a chance to express the issues in her life that may be causing depression and suicidal ideation (Fitzpatrick 2018, p. 4). In depression, the care process is supposed to be designed from the recognition that the patients understand the issues in their life and are experts in their health. By communicating with the patient, I was applying standard 7.3 to foster a culture of safety and learning to allow the patient to heal (NMBA, 2016, pp. 2).
