INTRODUCTION
Communication is concerned with the passing of necessary information by the sender to
the receiver. It is important to have an effective communication both between the individuals and
in the organization as well (Riley, 2015). Driscoll's reflection model is made to guide the
reflection and it includes different stages to express reflection. The current study will highlight
the importance of communication through Driscoll's model (Deslandes, and et.al., 2018).
MAIN BODY
PART A
Driscoll's model of reflection.
 Having an experience in clinical practice: Recently, I worked as an intern in NHS
(National Healthcare system) and got the opportunity to interact with various patients. I
also communicated with other health experts and doctors that further helped me in
understanding the work culture better. The one-month experience taught me a lot about
the importance of communication and how it can affect the attitude of individuals. I also
realized various psychological aspects of hospitals and how it affects the mental health
and well-being of people.
 What (Description of the event): During my interaction with one of the patients who was
suffering from depression and anxiety at NHS, I realized that there are many people
suffering from this illness and there must exist a solution for this event. The patient told
me that there was complete isolation in the hospital as no one talked to them. The doctors
just came for the routine check up, completed their job and went away which was very
shocking to hear as no one gave time and importance to them. It made me realized that
the problem exists in the hospital itself and it is imperative for me to find a potential
solution for this problem.
 So What (An analysis of the event): Upon analysing the complete situation, I have
analysed that the problem persists within the hospital and it is important to find a solution
for it. Mentally ill and depressed people feel lonely, and they have negative thoughts in
their hand therefore it is imperative for doctors and counsellors to consult with them and
listen to them patiently. Also, I have analysed that the hospital needs to have a games
room or entertainment room where patients can have a fun time as it will bring positivity
in them.
