I have reflected on the experiences individually in the previous post and this is an overall review of what I have learned on simulation week.
One of my improvements is to always consider patient needs first and not become too focused on the technical aspects of the examination. I can do this by not jumping straight into the examination and taking some time before hand to think about what I’m going to do. I need to prepare the room before that patient enters to make the interaction more efficient and less time consuming for the patient.
Furthermore, I need to work effectively in the multidisciplinary team. I will do research into the multidisciplinary for the Betty assignment and after finishing this assignment I will have a better understanding of interprofessional teamwork and the multidisciplinary team.
Lastly, I strive to become a more useful member of the team in theatre. I need to get more involved and feel comfortable talking to the surgeon. I will achieve this goal when I complete my next theatre week because I will become more comfortable with the equipment and the surgeons use of complex language.
In conclusion simulation week allowed me to make mistakes in a comfortable environment where I could practice my skills and learn from the experience effectively. Reaching the goals i have set for myself will allow me to develop my professional practice and become a more valuable asset to the team.
