We have read Chapters 1-11 in Brawley. In this assignment, we would like you to dig deep and contemplate your feelings and reactions about the realities in medicine revealed by Brawley to this point. Please provide a personal reflection. We’d like your spontaneous thoughts, insights, and personal strategies. Formal writing and format are not required. Let your thoughts flow. Clear writing is appreciated. Please answer the following three questions.
1. Please describe three concerning realities in health care Brawley illuminated that resonate the loudest for you. Why did these issues land at the top of your list?
2. Please describe three values/assumptions you held before reading Brawley that you are seriously reconsidering. Why?
3. Assuming you work in an environment where your top concern in #1 is affecting clients, contemplate how you would handle your moral distress as a professional nurse. Using the concepts of direct advocacy for your client and organized advocacy for a specific population, describe steps you would take to improve outcomes related to this issue at the individual and population levels. Who else on the healthcare team would you involve?
The length of your reflection should be 2 pages.
