I currently work at St. Joseph's 7 Surgical floor to provide evidence-based, quality care to the patients as well as learn from experienced healthcare staff to succeed in my current role. Some of my responsibilities include identifying and assessing my patients' health conditions, administering medication to patients, providing health education to clients and their families, and ensuring all treatment plan documentation is up-to-date and accurate.From September 2021 to December 2021, I worked on the CTU-West medicine floor alongside experienced nurses, nursing clinical tutors and classmates to provide care for patients and their families at the hospital. To succeed in my current role, I implemented my prior learnings into my current surgical floor work.These two placements have allowed me to develop problem-solving skills, be able to think quickly on my feet and approach the day with an organized schedule to help plan out my day. This experience has opened my eyes into the world of healthcare and has provided me the insight to know how I want to make an impact on the future of the healthcare/hospital system.
