Reflective Model Used in Health and Social Care Organization
In the health and social care organization different tools and models are used for the reflection
process. Some of most common models that are used for reflection process are Kolb reflective
cycle and Schon Model.
Kolb reflective cycle
Kolb reflective cycle is known as experimental learning. The basis of this model is self
experience that is gained by an individual person which is reviewed, analysed and evaluated
later. This model is consists of a cycle that is consists of Concrete experience, Reflective
Observation, Abstract conceptualization and Active experimentation (Morris, T.H., 2019).
Concrete experience- In this stage includes the description of the particular situation and
personal
Reflective Observation- In this stage deep explanation of the particular experience is presented
in form of reflection.
Abstract conceptualization- This stage is based on different questions that are used for
providing guidance to deal with situation.
Active experimentation- At this stage newly acquired knowledge is explained in the reflective
way.
This is how Colb Reflective model can be used for providing reflection in health and
social care organization

conditions. First reflection is for during the actions and other one is about after the action (Wain,
