ATI Pharmacology Practice Assessment A Reflection

ATI Pharmacology Practice Assessment A Reflection

Reflecting on my experience taking the ATI Pharmacology Practice Assessment A, I’d say a lot of things went well. First off, I was confident going into this exam because I had previously taken the pharmacology adaptive quiz and that went very well for me. I ensured that I used tactics I’ve taught myself through the adaptive quizzes, such as utilizing a timer while taking my exam to keep track of my time. I’ll admit, I definitely could have spent more…

ATI Maternal Newborn Adaptive Quiz Reflection

Reflecting on my experience of the Maternal Newborn ATI Adaptive Quiz, I’d say that I improved in many different categories. First and foremost, I was finally able to increase my average time spent on each question. I got it up to 45 seconds per question. While I would still like to work my way up to over one minute, this is a significant improvement for me over my previous performance. Also, my percent correct went up significantly, by almost a…

ATI Med-Surg Adaptive Quiz Reflection

Reflecting on my assessment of the Medical-Surgical ATI Adaptive Quiz, I would say that I improved in terms of some of my test taking strategies. I made sure to be sure to select only one answer and not change my answer once I selected one. I also only made one mistake of rushing through a question when I knew the correct answer but chose the incorrect one due to too little time spent. However, something I still need to work…

ATI Pharmacology Adaptive Quiz Reflection

Reflecting on my experience of the ATI Pharmacology Adaptive Quiz, I’d say that I didn’t do too bad considering I took this quiz without any preparation beforehand. I fell right in between the known average of percent correct at 52%, which was very encouraging for me. Scoring up in the 84th percentile was also another encouraging factor for me. Knowing that I did better than or equal to 84% of the individuals taking this exam sounds promising for the next adaptive…

The movie Nurses affected me in many different ways. The most prominent feeling I felt was inspired. I also felt very reaffirmed in my decision to become a nurse. All of those different nurses, with different backgrounds and jobs, all came together to essentially say the same message about the nursing profession. I couldn’t help but feel inspired to hopefully live up to these qualities one day. All of those individuals looked to be very skilled and experienced nurses, and…

Prepare for Transition!

Graduating in May is supposed to be a very exciting time for us college graduates! However, I feel particularly hung up on the fact that I have so much to do in the next 5 months that will carve out the path to my future. I’m most excited about being able to finally feel like an independent adult. These past four years have taught me so much, but finally being responsible for a 40-hour a week job in which I’m…

Empathy and Compassion Paper

Clinical Event             Through the many patients that I cared for this past semester during clinical, there was one day and one patient in particular that stood out to me. I believe I provided empathetic and compassionate care to them; and I also felt as though I made the biggest difference in this patient’s experience. This patient was a lovely older woman who had previously lived alone and presented with the inability to walk and with delirium. The prognosis for my…

This piece of artwork speaks to me about nursing is many different ways. The tree itself represents growth upward, in a positive direction. It also shows how many different paths a nurse can take in their career path. Whether you want to become an advanced practicing nurse, or take an administrative role, or leadership role. Those are only a few, there’s so many other paths one can take! Nursing is such a broad term, and I think a tree does…
