GIBB’S REFLECTION CYCLE1
Description:
While in the clinical placement in Rehab Ward of Princess Alexandra Hospital, I was
asked to perform a primary survey in the rehab ward. I was asked to perform a survey on the
patients of the rehab ward. The purpose of the primary survey was to identify the key factors
that can contribute to the research by expressing my interpersonal skills. While doing the survey
I was new to the experience of the primary survey. However, my clinical facilitator assisted me
to understand my participants and assessing my ability to conduct a primary survey. The
facilitator provided me with feedback that I was able to research independently.
Feelings:
While performing the primary survey, I was initially nervous and apprehensive as I was
new to the situation. I was concern that whether I was able to do a primary survey or not by
expecting to demonstrate interpersonal skills. However, I felt relieved when my facilitator
assisted me to understand my participants and provided me with a feedback that I was able to
research independently.
Evaluation:
Considering the positive experience of the incident, I got an opportunity to involve in
effective communication and able to exhibit my interpersonal skills while interacting with the
patients. Moreover, I received positive feedback I was able to research independently. However,
the negative experience was that I was anxious and apprehensive as I was new to the experience
of doing a primary survey. I was also anxious regarding my ability to exhibit interpersonal skills
while communicating with the participants such as active listening, motivation and flexibility.
