Describe at least one area you identified where improvements could be made, specific to Ms. Oxendine’s assessment. Were you surprised by any of the feedback you were provided by iHuman? If yes, please explain.
• Paragraph Three: What did you learn from this simulation that you could apply to nursing practice? Or, what did this simulation reinforce that you found valuable? Do you have any questions related to the scenario?

ANSWER

During the simulation, what went well for me was knowing that Miss. Oxendine’s state was emergent—recognizing her mental state of attempting to end her life by suicide and physically when her body was reacting to the N-acetylcysteine. Also, I felt confident in recommending (SBAR) that Miss. Oxendine receives help beyond the emergency room/hospital stay. I believe that holistic care helped me, the nurse, see Miss. Oxendine is in her current state (the reason for her hospitalization); also, I saw beyond her current state (the care from the initial entry that would result in her wellness journey post-discharge). ……please click the icon below to purchase full answer at $5
