INTRODUCTIONNursing field is an important area in medical care which is because nursing interventionshelp in addressing patient’s demands and play an important role in their faster recovery. Thereport discusses about use and importance of intellectual skills and abilities to utilise them whilemaking crucial decision in medical care experience. SECTION 1Identifying learning and its application in healthcare related experienceBiological and Physiological Sciences: The term biological science is defined as study of living and life organisms, adaptations,their life cycles and environment. These are more diverse life science degree programmesembracing a broad range of specialist fields and varied spectrum approaches (Dykes and et.al.,2017). Physiology is the study of body functions of living organism how cell, tissues and organfunctions are integrated within an individual. It is related to experimental and scientific disciplineof general education value which is of fundamental importance in health-related science andmedicine. Its scope ranges from understanding events at molecular level to integrativephysiology of organs and systems (Carthon and et.al., 2015).Biology is an important subject for all nursing students because it introduces them tofoundations of life. Being nursing student, knowledge of biology and physiology science helpedme to gain knowledge of how different parts of human body are being operated. I have appliedthis knowledge during my healthcare placement while I was addressing an elderly patient whowas diagnosed with autism. Social and Behavioural Science:It refers to branch of science that deals primarily with human actions and seeks togeneralise about human behaviour in society. This includes psychology, sociology,anthropology, ethology and other disciplines. Patient care is focus of my formal education as Iwork towards earning a nursing degree. It is seen that patients who are ill or injured experience awide range of emotions. Nurses who are trained to understand these changes in behaviour ofpatient provide better care to them who feel angry or depressed (Urquhart and et.al., 2018). 1

Behavioural science has helped me to effectively communicate with my patient and knowabout his mental health along with his physical problems. Social science is the field which helpsnurse to understand how illness and diseases change patients’ mental health and the way properbehaviour will help in bringing down his anxiety and depression issues. Ethics, Law and the Humanities:Nursing ethics refers to practice that should be conducted by nurses while caring andaddressing the patient (Xiao and et.al., 2017). These include medical ethics, non-maleficence,beneficence and respect for autonomy of patient. Laws refer to legislation and acts which governnursing field in United Kingdom whereas humanity is an academic principle which studies theaspects of human society and culture. Applying of law, ethics and humanity creates balance in the field of nursing care (Ethicsand Human Rights.2018). It is important to have these three core competencies while addressingpatient or working in health-related services. I applied ethical code of conduct while taking careof my patient which was the prime duty to avoid any kind of maleficence i.e. to harm or commitany evil act against him/her. Further, it was my legal duty to oblige to rules and regulations ofnursing field and work according to legislation.Health PromotionIt refers to the process of guiding and enabling people to increase their control of notusing unhealthy habits and to improve their health (Stephens and et.al., 2015). Main aim ofhealth promotion activities is to make people aware about importance of health and avoidpractice which deteriorates their health. Being nursing student, it is my moral duty to make mypatient aware about unhealthy habits which may affect his health. Further, I made my patientaware about exercise and diet plans that they should follow in order to live a healthy lifestyle. SECTION 21. Critical reflection of an incident to make a difficult decision showing how and why thedecision is madeCase of Miss White:Miss White is an elderly person and live along with her family.
