majority of our patients in the hospital i previosly worked have specific determinants or disparities. one classic example was, most of our patients in the medical ward belongs to lower income
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
familes. despite their socio economic status and their education level, We still deliver optimum care that we could render without bias and discrimination.we provide health teachings, and information
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
about their concerns in a way that can be easily understood by the patient. we extend our undesrtanding by explaining the procedures that they will undergo like, xrays,ultrasound and ct scan.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
we give them options in case they are undecive. We try not to use medical terms and rather speak with them in our own dialect.In addition, for the low income earners, we encourage them to avail
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
the Philippine health insurance, a government owned and controlled corporation. its main goal is to ensure the health of evry filipino through social insurance regardless of social status.In the
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
philippines, it is more respectfully if we adress the them like " maam" or Sir and not by their first them.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________
for the said procedure. the patient also doesnt understand any " Tagalog word " whcih is the main language in my place. as a nurse advocates, i referred the patient to department of social welfare
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
to assess the patients situation. Furthermore with regards to his pending surgery. i helped him process his application to Philippines charity organization wherein they provide funds for health
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
programs and medical assistance. also i asked for the help of our supervisor to look for an interpreter to communicate better to the client.the hospital also provides assistance in case the patient
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
doesnt have any funds to settle the bill if they are discharged from the hospital.

Care for clients at any point in the life cycle employing a systematic approach and 1
holistic (biological, psychological, spiritual, developmental and sociocultural needs)
perspective in the completion of nursing care.
Where, when and how I demonstrated this skill:
it was my first year at the hospital where i previously worked and was assisgned to pediatric ward. Upon arounds, i always greet them and introduced my self sayin " My Name is Jyselle and will be
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
your nurse for today", After building a good interaction, i assessed the patient from head to toe prioritizing the airway, breathing and circulation. it is also necessary to assess the the kind of
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
environment the child has by simply observing how the child was being treated by the parents, the way the care giver act and speak towards the patient, checking for some unhygienic ways that
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
may expose the child to further infection.upon these assesment, we plan our actions basing from the untoward signs and symptoms. one classic example was asking the significant other ' I noticed
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
that the baby has a diaper rash since yesterday? did she sleep well?does she cry a lot during diaper change? also we include in the assesment the biological approach and holistic. In my practise,
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
we often do health teachings to the significant others or to the caregiver present at the time because it is very common in the philippines that the caregivers rely on the school old teachings that
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
may create a negative effects on the growing child.

Where, when and how I demonstrated this skill:
People with different background have different perspective. For health workers like me, i must not be judgemental and must be open minded for the changes that might help in the healing process
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
of our patients so as not to have miscommunication. upon assesment at my patient at the emergency room 2 years ago, i oveheard my patient speaking a distinct language which i am somewhat
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
familiar. I approached him by saying " sir' or " mr" or we ask them how they want to be adressed. we approach them by greeting like ' Hello , good morning, i will be your nurse for today, how would
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
you like me to call you?.Furthermore,asking some series of questions such as, how are you feeling right now?are you in any pain right now? i will attend to you throughout the shift.after making
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
the client feel at ease, He then comfortable responded to all my questions. Making feel the patient welcome and not presuured. another example is, when a male patient chooses another male nurse
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
for foley reinsertion. It is his right to ask another male to do the procedure and to consider the patients sexual orientation and protect his right to privacy.

during my first year in the hospital i last worked, most of our patients belongs to lower income family. as a nurse i am not only focused on medical aspect but rather the person as a whole. upon

assesment of a client, we also take note the kind of environment the client has in their home, in preparation also for their discharge.when caring for a client, we encourage the client and the family
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
members to work closely with us. one classic example would be, a stroke patient with left sided body weakness, about to be discharge from the hospital. Couple of days prior to their discharge,
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
we gradually incorporate/ train the family on how to care for the client at home.care at home includes: turning patient side to side, oral care, peri care, bed bath and feeding. moreover, before
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
the family caregiver, we as a nurse must asses the readiness and willingness of the family caregiver. like for example " it was great that Mr. X hd made progress everyday, and it wont be possible
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
without your presence. additionaly, now the he is able to be discharge 3 days from now, have you thought about what will be your set up at home?what i would suggest is, discuss this situation
________________________________________________________________________________________________________
amongst family member, and we will guide you all throughout. would the be ok? do you have any concerns so far?
