Essay / Reflecting on Critical Thinking in Nursing - 1797
Therefore, to provide holistic care, they must develop strong critical thinking skills (Potter and Romyn, 2014). Developing this skill will help nurses respond quickly to changes in the client's condition and determine priorities of care based on the urgency of the situation (Shoulders, Follet, & Eason, 2014). The purpose of this article is to reflect on the process of identifying and developing my critical thinking skills during my nursing program, including my current abilities in relation to this skill. Additionally, I will reflect on the use of this skill in various clinical rotations and in my final nursing preceptorship. Again, I will discuss its implications for future practice and how this skill will benefit me as I transition from nursing student to graduate.
