  • Present clinical experience

    My clinical experience at the prison is honestly hard to explain. The main thing I can say is that I was terrified. I dont think its an environment I would want to work in. There are different security levelsmaximum and minimumdepending on the inmates situations. On the sixth floor, we noticed there were more Native American inmates housed there.

    The minimum-security side really surprised me. It didnt fully feel like a prison, but at the same time, it still was. The inmates wore casual clothes and were able to hang out with each other. Many of them were only a few months away from being released, so they were placed at a lower security level. There was still security present, but the atmosphere felt more relaxed. I remember one inmate saying that people think theyre going to try to escape, but he said, Why would I escape and risk jeopardizing my release? That stuck with me because it made sensetrying to escape would only delay their freedom.

    What really amazed me was how different it was from what I imagined. When I think of prison, I picture no luxuriesno TV, no phones, no music, nothing. But in this prison, many inmates had TVs in their rooms, access to phones, and were listening to music. They were just kind of relaxing. I was honestly shocked and kept thinking, What kind of prison is this? But this was my first experience in a prison setting, so I didnt really know what to expect.

    Another thing that stood out to me was the mental health aspectthere was a strong behavioral and psychiatric component throughout the facility. And surprisingly, the currency among inmates was ramen noodles. That really caught my attention because my daughter loves ramen noodles and would eat them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if I let her. When they said ramen noodles were basically the prison currency, I couldnt help but laugh. Here I am limiting how much ramen my daughter eats, and in prison, its considered valuable. That part was honestly funny and something I wont forget.

    I remember during medication pass in the maximum-security unit, there were about five officers who would come and stand by the cell before the door was opened. They stayed there for safety in case anything happened. The door wouldnt open until the nurse said she was ready to give the inmate their medication. I honestly expected it to be chaotic or intense, but it actually went very smoothly.

    There was one particular inmate we came to, and the nurse told us to stand back near the table because he had tried to attack the med cart during a previous pass. Even knowing that, she still treated him like any other patient. She greeted him, asked how he was doing, and spoke to him respectfully. She didnt judge him or treat him differently because of his past behavior. That really stood out to me.

    At one point, she mentioned that most of the inmates see her as a mother figure. At first, I didnt really understand what she meant. But after observing her during med pass, it started to make sense. She was consistent, calm, caring, and present for them. She genuinely cared and tried to help them if they needed anything. She was my preceptor, and you could tell she truly loved what she did and took pride in supporting her patients, no matter the setting.

    Read one evidence-based scholarly article

    Address the following in your paper: (Read prior to clinical experience):

    1. How would you compare the correctional nurse’s “therapeutic approach” to inmates as compared to the traditional nurse/patient relationship? How is it different? How is it the same?
    2. What did you notice about the inmates’ general health status and health care practices? Give examples to support
    3. your observallons
    4. Ask a nurse, “What is it like to be a correctional nurse?” Summarize their response in your paper.
    5. Reflect on your clinical experience at the prison and describe your feeling, fears, etc. that you experienced during this clinical.
    6. Locate one evidence-based scholarly article on correctional nursing prior to your prison clinical experience. Be prepared to ask questions of your preceptor. In your paper, compare and contrast the article with what you observe during your clinical experience. Write in paper format, utilizing appropriate headers, introduction and conclusion.

  • Unit 10 SOAP note

    Instructions

    Over the course of the semester you will choose 10 patient encounters to document an extended SOAP note for.

    It is expected that you vary the primary focus of each note to ensure you are receiving quality feedback for several types of patient encounters to include acute, chronic and wellness encounters. You are not to utilize the same type of encounter, acute/chronic health condition or wellness exam, more than once unless you have received approval to do so from your clinical faculty person.

    Each SOAP note carries a 15-point value.

    SOAP notes will be evaluated using a standardized rubric. Please review the evaluation criterion to ensure that your SOAP notes are constructed to address the required elements and desired level of achievement.

    For planned weekly clinical experiences submission of the 10 SOAP notes would be accomplished by submitting one SOAP note weekly for weeks 4 through week 13.

    For planned and approved condensed, compressed or alternate clinical experiences, submission of the 10 SOAP note would be dependent on the approved clinical schedule. This may mean that more than 1 SOAP note would need to be submitted on a weekly basis. If you are not in clinical for weeks where a SOAP note is due a 0 will be input into the Grade Center as a place holder until you have submitted the required assignment.

  • Melanoma

    Your paper should include the underlined items below as section headings.

    APA 7th edition Title page:

    • This is a separate page by itself, with the following information centered in the middle of the page: course title, paper title, students name, instructors name, and date.

    Description of Pathology:

    • Start the paper on a new page.
    • In this section, you will describe the pathology (statistics about it, background information, etc.). Give as much information as you can about it but be sure it is relevant information and not just filler. It should be a comprehensive introductory section of the condition in one to two paragraphs.

    Normal anatomy of the major body system affected: In this section, you will describe what is considered normal anatomy for your particular pathophysiology. For example, if you are discussing a disease related to the brain, explain what is normal for the brain from an anatomical standpoint. You should show comprehensive knowledge of the fundamental concepts and communicate information using scientific vocabulary. There should be little to no discussion of the condition itself in this section.

    Normal physiology of the major body system affected: In this section, you will be discussing physiology. Keep in mind that when describing physiology, it isnt enough to merely provide a list of functions of the body system (Ex: Neurons send signals throughout the body), instead, you need to be able to describe how it does it. The how is the physiology. There should be little to no discussion of the condition itself in this section

    Mechanism of Pathophysiology: This section is likely going to be the most in-depth and longest section. In this section, you will explain your particular pathophysiology from a scientific standpoint. In the previous two sections, you explained what is considered normal, in this section, you should describe what the pathophysiology is doing that is causing these issues, how the normal anatomy & physiology is affected/different in a person with your condition. You should show a thorough understanding of the anatomical and physiological changes contributing to the disease. Some good keywords to search for when doing your research might be “Pathology of __________, Pathophysiology of __________.”

    Prevention: In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology could be prevented. This should outline possible prevention protocols, or clearly indicate if none is available based on the current scientific literature.

    Treatment: In this section, you will explain how your pathophysiology is commonly treated. Provide possible treatment protocols for the condition based on current scientific literature. Be sure to bring in nursing relevant information and how you might be involved in the treatment of the condition.

    Conclusion: Finally you should summarize your findings. All good research papers should include a conclusion where you wrap up and summarize all of the important points made in your paper.

    References:

    • As with the Title page, this should be a separate page by itself.
    • All references should be included in correct and complete APA format.
    • All references must be cited appropriately in the paper using APA-style in-text citations.
    • A minimum of three reputable sources are required for this assignment.

    Requirements for Length & Submission

    The length requirement for this paper is between 4-6 full pages of content, double-spaced – this does not include the Title page and the Reference page (both on separate pages) that do not contribute to page count. Use of images/tables/diagrams will not count for total page number either.

    Students will be assigned individual topics related to physiology and pathological conditions of physiological systems by their instructor. You must write your paper based on your assigned topic.

    Your paper must be submitted as a PDF (.pdf) or Word document (.doc or .docx). These are the only file types that will be accepted.
