Clinical Practicum
BSN325
Patient Population
My first clinical placement took place at Southlake: Restorative Care Unit located at the Jane and Finch site. My clinical took place on 6 West a rehabilitation floor. I worked closely with my clinical instructor Kelly Minor and 5 other nursing students that were also in third semester. Each clinical I was assigned a patient that I assisted my nurse with for the day by completing tasks within my scope of practice. Starting the clinical I was very nervous and over time I grew into my role and became confident in what I was doing. The whole experience taught me a lot of hands on knowdlege about being a bedside nurse.
