Present your approved intervention
to the patient, family, or group and record a 10-15 minute video reflection on
your practicum experience, the development of your capstone project, and your
personal and professional growth over the course of your RN-to-BSN
program. Document the time spent (your practicum hours) with
these individuals or group in the Core Elms Volunteer Experience Form.
Introduction
Baccalaureate-prepared nurses have
many opportunities to reflect on their contributions to patient care outcomes
during clinical experiences. Research suggests that creating and sharing video
reflections may enhance learning (Speed, Lucarelli, & Macaulay, 2018).
For this assessment, you’ll present
your approved intervention to the patient, family, or group and reflect on
various aspects of your capstone practicum experience. Such reflection will
give you a chance to discuss elements of the project of which you are most
proud and aspects of the experience that will help you grow in your personal
practice and nursing career.
