The beauty of working in healthcare is when physicians, practitioners and other disciplinary can work together as professional. Interprofessional collaboration is when a health care professional can collective work together as a team in a positive and respect environment (Sangster-Gormley, 2015). Collaborative team members are not threatened by each other, they exchange their knowledge and expertise (Sangster-Gormley, 2015). They flow in a constructive environment that foster positive decision-making and problem-solving. Collaboration is a major factor in successful Nurse practitioner integration (Sangster-Gormley, 2015).
During my clinical preceptorship at New York Presbyterian Hospital, many patients that came into the hospital with urinary retention a catheter was inserted to determine the amount of urine in their bladder or post-void residual (PVR).

Understand the requirements of written and verbal business communication 1.1 Explain why different communication methods are used in the business environment In this assessment I will be proving that I understand the requirements of written and verbal business communication. I want to start off by explaining that I work for a very diverse team, Safeguarding, Infection Control and Prevention and Tissue Viability so there is a lot of variable communication methods that I am required to use in order to succeed within my role. There are two main types of communication that I have regularly used in my role, formal communication is the main type of communication that I use in my work environment as I am required to be professional when I speak to colleagues around the Trust and when I attend meetings. It is my responsibility to take notes and feedback to the group when appropriate, and I need to be aware of the terminology I use to suit the needs of that specific medical group.

If a diagnosis is not obtainable, urinalysis and urine culture should be considered. C-reactive protein levels or erythrocyte sedimentation rate are also tests that can be used to differentiate from torsion (Uphold & Graham, 2013). Intravenous pyelography can be used to detect bladder obstruction in older men. When the patient has sexually transmitted infection (STI), a gram-stained smear of urethral exudate or intraurethral swab specimen tests should be
I had thought finally problem solved, now I 'm on my way to recovery! Oh how I was so wrong about that. Once again I had to face those dreaded IV’s again but this time I was too out of it and to weak to even care. I was given lots of medicine and lots of fluids with a nurse constantly checking on me as my pulse was in the low twenties and the buzzer kept going off if it was below thirty or thirty five. Later that night I was released from the hospital thinking that the worst was behind me.
Collaboration among health care professionals is defined as assuming complementary roles and cooperatively working together, sharing responsibility for problem solving and making decisions to formulate and carry out plans for patient care. (Fagin, 2008). In any field of health care where physicians and nurses interact with one another for the purpose of quality patient care, it is vital for them to work together as one and understand the needs of their patients as well as each other’s roles and responsibilities. In short, teamwork should prevail for excellent patient service. Therefore, being in full partnership as a nurse with the physician and other healthcare professional is another recommendation that is applied by the RWJ-IOM report.

I had to squint, and I saw the doctor right close, holding something shiny. It was a needle. Way too large for my comfort. I had to speak, just had to, but I wasn’t able to. I managed to rattle out a shaky, “W-what are you g-gonna do with
Arnett describe dialogic communication as acknowledging multiple goods that give rise to and emerge in ongoing conversations, protecting and promoting the good of learning (p.55). In addition, we are already born into a world already formed in conversation. All six of the protagonist had their own version of the conversation regarding the immigrants or ‘boat people”. I believe Raye Colbey, followed by Gleny Rae, genuinely acknowledged the possibilities of multiple goods and protected and promoted their own learning. I believe there is more to Raye than the videos portray.
