Description of Field Activity and Nurse’s Role in Promoting Sphere of Care

 

In the course of my observational experience with an RN BSN, I had the opportunity to witness the provision of preventative care for six patients with a demographic aged 60 and above. I observed the nurse provide education on wound care prevention, education on the effects of bright light to patients with a history of brain injuries, collaboration with the doctors on the new onset of chest pain, and education about the benefits of the influenza vaccine.

 

I observe the nurse provide education to a patient and family about the importance of avoiding bright light for a patient with a history of brain injury. I watched the nurse educate on preventative measures such as individualized turning, repositioning, and keeping skin clean and dry to avoid pressure injuries. I witnessed the nurse collaborating with the medical doctor regarding a patient’s new onset of chest pain. The registered nurse educated a patient on how the Influenza vaccine works to protect the individuals and any potential side effects of the vaccine.
