Individual Learning Goal 1
I want to learn and enhance my interpersonal skill for communicating
effectively with four patients during the experience of the workplace. I
can achieve it as an interpersonal skill is practised within the workplace,
and I would be able to excel in my profession with this skill.
The rationale to why this is important for my practice as a nurse
Excelling in interpersonal skill is very important and necessary for a
nurse in any clinical settings (Bach & Grant, 2015, p. 13). Multiple patients
are visiting and taking admission within the clinical setting or care. This
patient interacts with multiple nurses, and thus an effective
interpersonal skill would assist in effective communication and building
a therapeutic relationship with the patient (Kornhaber et al., 2016, p. 1).
This skill would also help me in proving person-centred care towards the
patient. Moreover, this interpersonal skill would also help me in making
effective communication with my peers in understanding the health
status of the patients (Grant & Goodman, 2018, p. 21).
Strategies to achieve this goal
 Practising and implementing the behaviour of active listening.
 Practising communication considering both verbal as well as non-
verbal, it would help in communicating efficiently with multiple
diverse patients
 Teamwork or networking is an effective tool, and it also helps in
enhancing the interpersonal skills as the teamwork involves
collaboration and incorporation with diverse work and people
(Needham, McMurray & Shaban, 2016, pp. 4-5).
Individual Learning Goal 2
I want to learn about the guidelines and policies of the workplace setting
to provide safe care to the patients in the clinical setting. I can
accomplish this by analysing and understanding the code of conduct
