Assessment 1
Aim:
The aim of this task is for you to demonstrate an awareness and understanding of clinical decision making within the role of the Registered Nurse. The clinical reasoning cycle (Levett-Jones, 2012) will be utilised to show the progression of your critical thinking process. Familiarisation with the clinical reasoning cycle will support you to provide quality care and will provide a foundation for your next essay in this course.
Task Description:
You are to write an essay which uses the clinical reasoning cycle (Levett-Jones, 2012) to present a case study of a clinical decision that you have been involved in. The clinical decision you select can be a decision that went well or one with a negative outcome. You only need to discuss one example of a clinical decision.
Examples of clinical decisions may include (but are not limited to):
• • Responding to a change in the patient’s condition
• • Care planning considering the patient’s present health status
• • Reviewing planned patient interventions including medications
• • Outcome from effective or ineffective communication
Instructions:
1. 1) Explain the background situation, including current and related patient or case information and other influencing factors related to the clinical decision.
