Shannon Olsen Professor Goran  Integrating Experience III 12 October 2023 Needle Exchange  I had prior knowledge of the Needle Exchange Program (NEP) before experiencing the class discussion and presentation on the program in class this week in Integrating Experience III. I knew the program helped with removing used syringes from communities in the U.S. I also knew that the NEP helped groups of people with harm reduction in several ways. The presentation has changed my pre-existing beliefs on how big…

Shannon Olsen Professor Goran Integrating Experience III 19 October 2023 Let’s Talk Medications I attended the “Let’s Talk Medications!” online event.

This event helped me build on my prior knowledge of medications and the importance of medication reconciliation. The number of adults taking more than 5 medications is…

Shannon Olsen Professor Goran Integrating Experience III 25 September 2023 Human Trafficking Human trafficking involves force, fraud, and coercion for a human to engage in sexual commercial acts and/or some kind of labor. My previous thoughts on human trafficking before this human trafficking lecture included thinking this issue was a problem for more underdeveloped countries and not as common at least in New England. I knew human trafficking mainly involved young females and women. I thought human trafficking involved highly…

Shannon Olsen Professor Goran Integrating Experience III 21 September 2023 Telemedicine in Acute Care I believe that the value of telemedicine is huge because it allows for decreased healthcare costs, and a decreased mortality rate in hospitals according to VISICU in the year 2000. Being able to constantly monitor patients and do healthcare visits/checks online can save lives, time, and money.  I believe telemedicine has a great influence on the profession of nursing. Telemedicine can be helpful to nurses by…

Shannon Olsen Professor Goran Integrating Experience 14 September 2023 Being Mortal and Advance Directives The documentary, Being Mortal, has influenced my thinking about the final days of life. Being able to tell someone about their mortality and even the time their mortality is predicted to be, will definitely be one of the hardest jobs I will ever have to do. I cannot imagine how hard it is to not give false hopes to patients and tell them the blunt truth…

My group and I were presented with many challenges but also faced with our own personal life experiences. When addressing each patient, there was an awkward pause before the conversation began because I felt that this was an experience that none of us were used to yet in our nursing careers. After the first two patients that my group and I interviewed, I felt as though…

I have learned an immense amount of knowledge throughout completing this semester long research project and can apply this new knowledge to my future nursing career. I have learned about the history of nursing and its evolution. Learning about Florence Nightingale’s impact on nursing and how just a few changes in patient care can create a ripple effect in the future of quality nursing made me realize how important evidence-based research really is. I explored several theoretical frameworks that have…
