I can send you an example of another students work for you to have an idea of what I expect from you
Example:
I believe a liberal education is very important for the practice and education of nurses. Having a liberal education educates you beyond the sciences and math and makes you a more caring care taker. The liberal part of the liberal education are classes such as sociology, philosophy and humanities. These topics teach you about people and cultures and people that are different from you. Living in America, there are so many different cultures and traditions and it is important to be sensitive to them when you are caring for people. Having a liberal background also helps nurses “engage in ethical reasoning and actions and promote advocacy for their patients” (The American Association of Colleges of Nursing, 2008). They also value lifelong learning which will carry over into their home life and nursing practice.
I feel I’ve met/ been educated about Essential 1 many times during the BSN program. For starters, I have learned to not be ethnocentric when caring for patients, and the importance of making them feel comfortable when things might be different from their culture. We also spoke a lot about the importance of being a lifelong learner. In our clinical sites, we often would try to learn a few words in Spanish to try to make our patients a little more comfortable, often times it would bring a smile to their face or a little laugh. During public health, we often spoke about the importance of the community and building trust and relationships with the people.
