    How do my learning goals support my commitment to continuing competency?


    How does my learning relate to the competencies of my practice?
    Continue to maintain and update your Learning Plan throughout the year

    As a student nurse not yet licensed, I intend to take up a part time position as an unregulated
    nurse so as to keep in touch with the techniques and skills I have picked up during my pregrad
    clinical placement. Continuing competency can only be implemented when a nurse is in
    continuous learning process and applies it to practice. This creates quality nursing practice and
    earns the respect of the public towards this profession.

    Evaluation of changes/outcomes to my practice


    What did I learn? What impact has my Learning Plan had on my practice?

    By observing my preceptor and other nurses prioritize their nursing care along with
    documentation being done as it happens, I realized that I can also implement the same. I used
    to finish all my nursing care for all 4 clients and then I would sit to document. This was not a
    good practice and I have learned that it is faster to document as the care happens. There was
    also the fact that the documentation had numerous sets to be completed for each patients. I
    learned that I do not have to go through them all one by one but rather I can choose more than
    3 or 4 subsets like vital signs, safety, ADL, mobility and pain. Then I can document them at
    one time without struggling for each one individually. This saves time.
    The learning plan has met my needs of confidently administering medications and organizing
    and prioritizing my nursing care so that I am able to complete my documentation in a timely
    manner.
    My practice has been observed by my preceptor in day shift comprising of caring for 4 clients
    as well as in the night shift caring for 7 to 8 clients.
