Select an important nursing issue/topic that was inherent to the identified situation. Briefly explain the situation Identify the nursing issue inherent in the identified situation As a method of refection, use Carper's Patterns of Knowing to analyze the situation.

(Personal) What was one personal belief that impacted your actions? (Ethics) What evidence in nursing literature supports the nursing importance of the identified issue? (Empirical) What new insights did you gain through this reflective practice opportunity? How will this apply to your practice as a nurse practitioner? Be sure to use scholarly literature to support your position. Being a Registered Nurse working in the Medical-Surgical/Telemetry unit as well as having experience in floating in other units around the hospital, I have experienced several situations in which I felt underprepared, unprepared, and uncomfortable. One particular experience that resonated with me was my first experience with a patient expiration. It was not too long since my orientation was over and I was still getting adjusted to working alone, and everything made me nervous since I no longer had my preceptor there to guide me.
