Principal 1 (Legal compliance): this principle help in proving vital data and information to work effectively avoiding any ambiguity, provide vital guidelines to about lawful behaviour so once can do self-assessment to work in obligation to this principle.

Principle 4 (Professional behaviour): this help in reviewing our work process to meet the obligation to work in compliance to the policy.

Principle 7 (Health and wellbeing): in order to deliver quality care to the patient it is vital for nurses to ensure both patient and their own wellbeing as well (Cowin, Riley, Heiler & Gregory, 2019), nurses have responsibility to ensure their own and their colleague’s wellbeing to certify safety and work productivity.

Standard 3: Except accountability and responsibility of own action, this standard help in providing procedures when collaborating with RN to deliver care (Fisher, 2017), consulting with register nurse and other health professional of multidisciplinary team to ensure right information and facilitate informed decisions.

Standard 7: communicate and use documentation to inform and report care, documentation is vital process to ensure effectivity of quality care..

The three domains of practise that relates to my duty of care are:

First: professional and collaborative practise:  this provide legal and ethical guidelines that support in working effectively as enrolled nurse to demonstrate my knowledge  and skills to develop best care (Fisher, 2017). This support in maintaining confidentiality of the client and colleagues and respect people, being accountable for my own action.

Second, provision of care: this domain support in understanding all aspect of care, process of evaluating the outcome of the care, it is vital to consider all vital data and information when planning for care, and collaborate with health professional when developing care plan to ensure effective care is delivered to meet patient need. Effective communication and documentation to monitor and report care. 

Third, reflective and analytical practise:  this help in reflecting on evidence based practise and help in using appropriate knowledge and skills to delivered care in obligation to safety and quality guidelines and engage in ongoing self-development as professional.                                     

Employer responsibility:

Employer has responsibility to ensure safe working environment, that will support in productive workplace and help in attaining better workplace goals without any ambiguity. As per employer has duty of care to maintain safety of both client and staff.

Gibbs reflective model is the one that I can relate the most as it comprise the process of learning through experience/event. It help in thinking systematically about an event using circle of reflection, this help in thinking about experience related to specific situation (Li, Chen, Liu & Deng, 2020) making aware of our own action, and behaviours, help in understanding what changes can be made for better outcome so that we can work more effectively in future.

The Gibbs cycle comprise six steps:

Description: this help in understanding what happened and how I am involved in that event/situation? It help in analysing/gathering vital information related to an event.

Feeling:  this help in identifying my feeling about that event/situation, trigger me to question what I feel after that event, how I look at that situation?

Evaluation: help me evaluate what went well in that situation and what not? What improvement can be made for better outcome?

Analysis: this phrase help me think what I have learned from this event/situation.

Conclusion:  this help me understand what else can be done in the situation for better outcome, or what has gone good and bad in the situation that needed to be noted.

Action plan: in consideration to this event evaluation future plan to be made to ensure better quality work or facilitate continuous improvement.

• Help in sharing knowledge
• Discover new specialities
• Discover new opportunities

Practical learning: for instance, learning through written or readable document, report etc. (Anderson, 2016)

Practical learning style I identify the most for the reason that it minimize the chances of misunderstanding or ambiguity it is evidence based that help in working effectively avoiding medical errors and supporting in development. For instance, when making plan for patient to meet specific need it is vital to include evidence based report/document to support the patient to avoid medical errors (Anderson, 2016)

Importance of knowing and understanding learning style is vital as nurse to give our best while working (Anderson, 2016), these styles are useful in different stages and can help in delivering quality care. For instance, auditory style help in understanding other perspective, their experience and knowledge to learn and improve work to deliver quality care.

Working in obligation organization and federal policy and procedure will help in evaluating that my own learning opportunities in nursing meet the ethical and legal requirement, for instance, nurses code of conduct providing guidelines about professional behaviour, legal compliance, person-centered practice, etc. will support in identifying opportunities for learning (Owen & Ward-Smith, 2014).

The importance of self-care is vital in nursing to ensure metal, physical and spiritual well-being.  According to journal article “The importance of self-care for nurses” self-care help in reducing the stress, help nurses to work effectively and showing compassion and empathy when caring for others. It is vital to be mentally and physically fit when caring for others to ensure wellbeing of both patient and ourselves to improve quality of care. Self-care ensure safety and promote health (Brucker, 2018), preserve integrity, certify personal and professional growth, minimize risk of ambiguity. Nurses can ensure self-care by ensure their physical and mental wellbeing, finding opportunity for growth, taking support of senior where needed in work to avoid error, decide suitable interventions and its implementation to pursue goal and certify both personal and professional development.

The three ways I can reflect on and recognise the effect of value, beliefs and behaviour are-

• Identifying my strength:  identifying my strength when working with others help in reflecting on my values and beliefs.  Identifying own strengths and identifying process to use this strength to attain goals is effective in professional development (Maia et al., 2019).
• Monitoring: monitoring my own work and evaluating it in consideration to my values to monitor my behaviour.
• Identifying opportunities: identifying opportunities to improve my work, such as feedback gathering to ensure I work as per my decided value and beliefs.

The importance of self-care is vital in nursing to ensure metal, physical and spiritual well-being.  It is vital to be mentally and physically fit when caring for others to ensure wellbeing of both patient and ourselves to improve quality of care. Self-care ensure safety and promote health (Brucker, 2018), preserve integrity, certify personal and professional growth, minimize risk of ambiguity. Nurses can ensure self-care by ensure their physical and mental wellbeing, finding opportunity for growth, taking support of senior where needed in work to avoid error, decide suitable interventions and its implementation to pursue goal and certify both personal and professional development.

The six self-care strategies are:
