As the days progressed in Wesleyan Hospital, I found myself gaining more confidence and
becoming increasingly comfortable in my role. The clinical exposure I was receiving was
September 18, 2023 marks the first day of our duty in Wesleyan Hospital. It was all new to me
since this is my first clinical exposure as well. It is hard that I finished my 3rd year college with
only pure online classes and my batchmates are already familiar with handling patients but I
managed to cope up with them somehow. Our shift is from 7 am to 3 pm in the afternoon; I
arrived 20 minutes prior to duty. We waited for the head nurse to give us a heads-up for the
endorsement. After that, the head nurse assigned us with patients we’re going to manage during
their whole stay in the hospital. Since it was my first time, Ma’am Alex (one of the head nurses)
taught me the charting. She discussed every part and what is the use of each forms and sheets.
My patients are 2 pedias with the diagnosis of AGE with moderate dehydration. I learned to
regulate an IV, prepare the medications such as ampules and vials, and administered it to the
patient.
On Tuesday, September 19, under the guidance of Ma'am Alex, our day at the hospital began

discharge. Our responsibilities for the day encompassed providing attentive bedside care and
Jumping forward to September 25, my duties took an exciting turn as I welcomed two new
patients into my care. One patient presented with a diagnosis of URTI, while the other faced the
challenging condition of protein energy malnutrition combined with the added complexity of a
high-risk brain tumor. Throughout the day, I remained in a state of continuous observation,
shadowing the experienced nurse on duty. I seized every opportunity to seek information about
unfamiliar aspects of medication administration and the intricate preparation of a 3-way stopcock
with a male lock adapter. Additionally, I actively assisted in the removal of an IV from one of
the patients. As our focus primarily revolved around ward duty, meticulous charting became our
top priority, supplemented by the routine tasks of recording intake and output.
On October 2, 2023, I was tasked with the care of three patients during my inaugural clinical
duty. The first patient required immediate surgery due to acute appendicitis, while the second
patient presented with alcohol intoxication, hypertension, and CAD. The third patient had PCAP.
Throughout the day, we diligently monitored their vital signs every four hours as part of our
routine. Undoubtedly, it was an exceptionally challenging day for me, especially given that it
marked my first clinical duty. Managing three patients simultaneously while also being
and charting. It was a lot lighter compared to the other day. . Along the way, I also acquired new
skills, including the preparation of the volumetric chamber. As the clock ticked closer to the end
of our shift, we couldn't help but reflect on the valuable lessons we had learned during our time
with the nurses. Their guidance, support, and expertise had been instrumental in our growth as
healthcare
professionals. We shared stories and laughter, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere to
express our gratitude. It was a bittersweet moment, knowing that we would soon be parting
ways, but we left with a deep sense of appreciation for the bonds we had formed and the
knowledge we had gained. We continue learning from their experiences even after our duty had
ended. as the day unfolded, I found myself gaining invaluable experience. This experience
illuminated the vital and multifaceted role of a nurse in healthcare. I am profoundly grateful for
the unwavering support and guidance provided by Ma'am Ena and Ma'am Alex. They were not
only accommodating but also remarkably hands-on in their approach. Their dedication to
ensuring that we, as student nurses, fully experienced the everyday life of a nurse was truly
commendable.
In conclusion, my first clinical duty was undoubtedly challenging, but it served as a profound
learning experience that reinforced the significance of nursing in patient care. The mentorship of
Ma'am Ena and Ma'am Alex played an instrumental role in my growth and understanding of this
nursing journey.
