Becoming A Community Analysis

As a student, one of my competency to achieved to become a professional nurse is medication administration. Since medication error can kill, there is the need to be vigilant at all time in dispensing under supervision. I have managed to disperse quite a few times but occasionally get muddled with the whole process by doing little errors and the pace at which I administer needs to be faster due to factor of time and the amount of patient lined up for medication. I have noticed some errors that needs to back up all the time. I have discussed with my mentor {and all areas of weakness have been recognized as a great opportunity for improving my experience in medication administration.

The Children’s Home of Reading-Acute Partial Hospitalization Program helped shape my perspective of professionalism thru constant reestablishments of what to expect when in an alternative hospitalization or residential treatment program. I was able to learn that the children who attend these types of facilities required much more attention. They also, require the redirection of skills that have never been taught to them before. At my internship site, an issue that is related to professionalism is that sometimes some staff members will have the intern complete miscellaneous task that has nothing to do with what they are primarily there for. Granted it makes the intern appreciate and learn that even the most miscellaneous task can be a good learning

I feel like I have excelled and persevered. I have learned many things this school including how it is a terrible habit to procrastinate. Now I know what are some of my strengths and weaknesses. Being a part of the health academy has increased my communications skills and taught me how to balance out sports, work and school. My hardest classes this year where chemistry and math

How do social workers practice self care when they are out of the office? I have tried to ask these questions to the social workers in my internship and everyone has given me a vague answer that makes me wonder how much social workers are actually taking care of themselves outside of work. Self-care is something that we are taught about constantly during the program and it’s interesting to hear about how some social workers agree they need to practice more self care. I believe I still have these questions because I am still trying to figure out how I can take care of myself more

I have worked in nursing homes as a certified nursing assistant, although this is not the most pleasant or fun job, it gave me an idea of what people go through on a daily basis and how they could use my help with their everyday tasks. I am currently working with my fellow students of the CAPS program to collect money for the Kansas City Medicine Cabinet. We have been working on a drive to collect coins that we can donate to the Medicine Cabinet. The money that we collect will help people who cannot receive medical treatment because of their financial situation. This experience challenges me to look at healthcare from a different perspective and realize that our healthcare system has many flaws that need to be

I am working on prioritizing my projects. Why should we hire you? You should hire me because I am a good candidate for this job, i realize you have other people who can also do this job but i have a passion for this job and do my best. I will always deliver my best work and am committed to my work.

I remember when I got my license and was working as a staff nurse at our local hospital. The students would come in and I would love to help them learn more about their patients, yet, this did not draw me any closer to wanting a career in education.

PT can change the world by helping peoples torn, broken, or sprained body parts to try to get their original or better movement and stability.

Being able to effectively communicate with people of all different levels of intelligence, as well as people who have different worldviews, is a goal that I am always working

Joining a discourse community is something that we’ve all experienced, whether it's family, sports clubs or even going to church. In class we have been talking about the types of discourse communities we are apart of and sharing it with our fellow classmates. A discourse community is a group of people who share a set of discourses, understood as basic values and assumptions, and ways of communicating about those goals. I feel that it is very important to be apart of a discourse community because you share ideas and thoughts upon each other to build a relationship. Everybody is apart of a discourse community throughout the world.

Discourse communities are defined by Swales as sharing a common goal, possessing mechanisms of intercommunication, using those mechanisms to provide information and feedback, communication using at least one genre, utilizing a specific lexis, and being composed of varying levels of expertise. Applying these criteria reveal my own membership in various discourse communities in which I am an active participant. Among the groups established by the rules provided by Swales, several obvious personal examples quickly come to mind. These include enrollment at the University of Texas at El Paso, Membership in the Medical Professions Organization, participation in a research lab on campus, and being employed as an official of little league baseball.

Fostering a tolerant, inclusive and friendly environment for special needs children by creating activities which will bring them closer to the community they live in. The activities to which they will participate outside school such as visits at museums or other activities will make children visible in the community and contribute to a better understanding in society of disability and the role of community in integrating them in their daily life.

We communicate in many ways, either by email, telephone, text, face to face, social media or letters and the language we use allows us to get things done, nonetheless the language and communication method in which we chose to use can vary depending on the discourse community. Much like John Swales suggests a discourse community involves a group of people who share the same common public goals, such as shared interests, rules, structure, and vocabulary. When thinking about the several discourse communities I am evolved in, which include family, coaching football, college student, and a few friends. These discourse communities have influenced me, given me insight of where I come from and tell who I am as a person. I also believe much like Swales,

Martin Luther King, Jr. once said in his “Letter From a Birmingham Jail”, “Time itself is neutral; it can either be used destructively or constructively... Human progress never rolls in on wheels of inevitability. It comes through the tireless efforts of man... We must use time creatively in the knowledge that time is always ripe to do right.” King is absolutely right, here; in order to make any progress or improvement, one needs to use time correctly in order to get a positive response.
