TRANSITION TO PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE
Introduction
In this essay, I will focus my reflection on the National and Quality Health Service
(NSQHS) standards which were formed by Australian Commission on Safety as well Quality in
medication in association with the administration of Australia, states as well as territories,
clinical experts, the private sector, career as well as patients. Firstly, I will tell the main purpose
of the NSQHS standards which are to secure the public domain from damage and to advance the
quality of medical services offered. I realized the NSQHS offer quality assurance technique that
examines whether the genuine systems are used to guarantee that the expected requirements of
safety, as well as quality, are achieved. The National and Quality Health Service has got various
standards that cover high prevalence negative events, healthcare-related infections,
comprehensive care, medication security, clinical conversation, the prevention as well as
management of pressure damages, the protection of falls, as well as reacting to scientific
deterioration. Significantly, the National Safety and Quality Healthcare Service have offered an
internationally consistent description of the standard of care users can get from their medical
service associations (Chang, 2015))
I will use my time in understanding different National Safety and Quality Healthcare
Services which include Clinical governance as well as partnering with consumers. The Clinical
governance is termed for explaining the clinical governance, as well as security and quality
systems which are needed to maintain and advance the reliability, quality of healthcare as well as
safety, and enhance health results for patients. Partnering with consumers which explains the
systems as well as techniques to form a person-centered clinical system by incorporating patients
in common decision making, to guarantee patients are shareholders in their own care as well as
that users are involved in the growth as well as the design of standard of healthcare.

For the primary purpose of this essay, I will also deploy Gibbs Reflective Learning Cycle
to mirror on the aspect of personal professional exercise, which needs development in an
arrangement for my duty as a certified nurse. Reflective Learning Cycle strengthens a clear
explanation of a situation, study of feelings, evaluation of the practice and study to make sense of
the exercise to test what action you would take if the problem arose again. To continue within the
nursing as well as Midwifery Council (NMC) code of qualified conduct instructions as well as to
maintain privacy the use of places or names will not be practiced all over this essay (Blais,
Hayes, Kozier & Erb 2006).
During the time of placement operating on a general ward in my third year, I was
questioned to carry out a research on a drug I was not sure on my mentor. On my way to study
the medicine, I come across assistant of the health care who asked me if I could help her with a
patient who was sleeping on a couch. I opted to assist the healthcare assistant as reasoned this
was a preference as I could check up the drug at every point in the daytime as it was for personal
learning as well as development and was not crucial. Then after I had assisted the clinical staff
assistant, my mentor questioned if had studied the drug. I told her that I had gone to assist the
clinical assistant and would check on the drug, which then I carried out. My mentor then
informed me that I required to advance on my management of time, as I had not checked on the
drug when she informed me too. She went on telling that when I become a certified nurse I
would require to be aware of drugs and their uses too. This state left me reasoning which was the
preference, the requirements of the patient or my own skillful learning as well as development.
My feeling – I automatically helped the clinical assistant in making the victim satisfied as
I felt that this was the preference over investigating the drug. I recall reasoning that I could
perform this at home if the medical institution became busy. I felt disappointed for not informing
