Reflective Writing Practice

You are to include the following:

Select an interaction, event or experience that stands out for you during your practicum.
Write a narrative summary of 2-3 paragraphs that explains what happened.
Write a paragraph or two that captures your reflection on how you interpret the event.
Write another paragraph or two from a different perspective. How do you think the other person in the encounter interpreted the event? If you were the patient in this interaction with you as the provider, how would you feel as that patient? For example, if a parent brought the child to the appointment, you could write about how the parent might view the interaction. Or, if you are seeing a couple, how the non-patient might view the appointment/interaction. This is you seeing things from the other person’s viewpoint.
Finally, write a paragraph that expresses what you have learned from this reflective activity that will influence your practice as a psychiatric nurse practitioner.
Tie in any relevant course material from any of your previous courses that helped you respond to this reflection. If you support any of your ideas with sources, cite appropriately.
