Preparing for Professional Practice Assignment
Preparing for Professional Practice Assignment
There are 4 different sections to this assignment and they are names patch 1, 2, 3 and 4. They all have different word limits which all in all should add up to 3500 words. I have done the first patch which is 750 words which I will attach for you to read and continue on. I only need you to complete patch 2, 3 and 4. Patch 2 and 3 are 750 words each and patch 4 is 1250 words. I will attach the assignment guidelines and handbook for you. I will also attach a example layout for you. Like I said ignore Patch one as that has been completed by myself, if you could just take a read of it and continue or link that onto the other patches. I have also attached some documents which may be helpful for patch 3
Opportunities for optional formative feedback for patches 1-3
Patch 1 – 750 words
Consider the teamworking you have experienced in a chosen placement area. Create an action plan for the ward manager which identifies how they could promote a positive team culture and/or improve team working. Underpin action points with theoretical evidence.
Patch 2 – 750 words
Identify a nurse leader you can relate to. Summarise the characteristics, behaviours and leadership approaches which you consider make them an effective leader. Underpin your reflection with relevant theory.
Patch 3 – 750 words
Devise a service improvement tool for use in a specified practice area. Provide a commentary outlining the rationale for where, why and how it should be used.
Patch 4 – 1250
Reflect upon the development of your leadership skills throughout year 3, drawing on theory to inform your reflection. Consider how the completion of patches 1 to 3 has influenced your development as a leader. Identify where you need to develop further as you move to Registered Nurse practice and how you plan to achieve this by providing a table of SMART objectives.
