Required Question: In regards to your internship site, explain how you feel they are a “partner in your education”.
My mentor is a partner in my education because he teaches me about a career choice that I may be interested in pursuing. Rather than merely teaching me the basics about nursing, he allows me to do things like prepare IV fluids and mix medicine under his supervision, which is something taking a health class in high school would not allow me to do. He teaches me more, in a way, than school can. Also, I get to interact with sick people and learn from them what the particular condition/sickness is like rather than reading about it in a textbook.
What goals have you met so far? Have you changed any of your goals?
I have met my goal of being able to successfully prepare an IV bag quickly and efficiently for my mentor, Mr. Julio. In the long term, I am sure not sure whether ER nursing is the career that I want to pursue, but I definitely think some type of nursing is possible.
What have you done that has made your supervisor’s life easier?
Whenever my mentor needs an IV bag prepared while he is trying to find a vain and create an input for the fluids, I am now able to help him by preparing the IV bag and making the process quicker so he can move on to the next patient even quicker.
