1NURSINGThis paper demonstrates the self reflection of how my training in the previous years hasprepared me for my nursing career. It is done on the basis of 5 R’s of Reflection that includesReporting, Responding, Relating, Reasoning, and Reconstructing.I remember an incident when I was working as registered nurse and there was a 52 yearold patient who was admitted in an emergency department suffering from GBS (Guellian BarrreSyndrome) which leads to paralysis of the body due to a viral infection He was in stage 3 duringthat time and had developed paralysis in legs. I experienced a similar situation when I undergoing a training during nursing course. Iwas looking after 48 years old male. He also complained that he also suffering from GBS(Guellian Barrre Syndrome) His family members had come to see him. I forgot to give him an IVinjection on time as I started to have a talkwith his family members. Suddenly I recalled about itand ran to provide him the injection. I was so scared that due to this mistake he would havedeveloped paralysis in the entire body. Dealing with such patients requires patience and mentalalertness as well and now I have learnt about how to handle patients and it was very difficult forme when I was a nursing students.I have learnt to be alert during my nursing practice. .Now, Ihave learnt to alert with patients who are on life supporting machines or are taking life savingmedicaments. I have learnt to deal with very sick patients who were admitted in intensive careunits and were on life supporting machines. I have gained expertise in handling different types ofpatients such as children, adults, and people belonging to an old age group admitted in theemergency ward. I have also learnt the importance of time management as I forgot to providemedication to the patient admitted in the emergency ward. I have also learnt to handle the familymembers of the critical patients and provide proper information regarding the disease medicinesto be taken and the precautions be taken after the treatment.I have learnt to be compassionate
