Description
Critically examine two clinical skills/procedures/practices they have been exposed to in the Simulated Learning Environment (SLE).
For the clinical skill/procedure/practice students will need to:
1. State the two clinical skills/procedure/practice you have chosen (approx. 200-250 words).
2. Identify and explore the most common adverse event(s) related to NURSES associated with this clinical practice
(approx. 350-450 words)
3. Discuss the most contemporary research that has influenced a change in NURSING practice associated with this skill (approx. 700-750 words).
4. Locate the most current clinical guideline (and provide web link) and discuss how it addresses (or not) the research you explored in point 3 (approx. 450-500 words).
The list of clinical skills/procedures/practices to choose from are;
• Basic Life Support (adult and paediatric)
• Invasive procedures (e.g., Indwelling catheter insertion, subcut/intramuscular injections)
• Aseptic Non-Touch technique (ANTT) (e.g., Central Venous Access Device management, epidural management, indwelling urinary catheter)
• Triage clinical assessment using the Australasian Triage Scale (e.g. sepsis, asthma, cardiac pathways)
• Safe administration practices in acute care setting (e.g., intravenous infusions and/or medication administration, communication)
• Blood transfusion
