Rescheduling Permission and Feasibility

Question: Disucss about the Rescheduling Permission and Feasibility. Answer: This reflective journal is aimed to report the events occurred last week. I was here last Monday and due to certain issues my practical assessment was rescheduled to Friday 11:00 A.M. Due to some unavoidable circumstances I was unable to attend the rescheduled assessment. Moreover, I did not inform the concerned person about my absence. Being an Enrolled Nurse I understand the significance of the situation and areas of the nursing standards I violated in regard to my actions. Firstly, the assessment was rescheduled with my due permission and feasibility. I agreed to be present on the rescheduled time on Friday at 11:00 A.M. However, I feel the rescheduling caused a certain level of inconvenience on my part, which I did consider during the confirmation of the rescheduled time. Considering the importance of the nursing profession I am aware of the necessity to cope up with such adjustments. In this particular case, I did violate many standards of the nursing practice by acting irresponsibly and not informing anyone regarding my absence. I do have a thorough understanding of the nursing practice standards and will try and point out those I violated during my actions last week. The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia provides a series of standards for the enrolled nurses to maintain a standard level of professional conduct. In reagrd to the concerned situation a lot of standards were violated which I have identified in the following sections of the reflective journal. The standards of Professional and Collaborative Practice were violated including standard 1.3, 2.10 and 3.4. Standard 1.3 demands to demonstrate knowledge of and implications for NMBA standards, which I lacked during the occurrence of the events. Standard 2.10 states we need to acknowledge and accommodate according to the preferences of the people receiving care which, I violated during the course of my actions. Further, in case of my absence I did not inform the Registered Nurse violating standard 3.4 which states that appropriate collaboration with the Registered Nurse must be established during practice. Although I had certain personal issues to deal with, as a result of which I could not attend the assessment on the mentioned date, but I hold myself completely accountable for not informing such absence with previous notice. No justification can suffice my irresponsibility towards the matter. My lack of distinct understanding of the Nursing Practice Standards also played a significant factor for such misconduct. Conclusion: However, I situation made me comprehend the gravity of such incidents in the Nursing Practice domain and is going to help be abstain from such actions in the future. My Registered Nurse has been immensely helpful in making me understand the consequences that may follow if such misconducts are prevalent in real-life nursing practice. This is going to help me reframe my decision making capabilities in the future, so that I can provide appropriate care to the person receiving the same by maintaining each and every standards of the profession outlined by Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia.
