Chapter 13 Discussion

Follow the instructions under Discussion Board Rubric and Discussion Guidelines and APA Tips to create your post and respond to at least one other student. Internal citations and references are required.

Ladies and gentlemen ~ After reviewing the learning plan, completing the reading, and viewing the PowerPoint, I imagine you are a bit overwhelmed. Keep focused on the topic: Communication and the roll of the nurse. Complete ONE of the three discussion prompts:

1. Incivility in the workplace:

Kathleen Bartholomew, RN, MN, managed a 57-bed orthopedic and spine unit in a tertiary hospital. Recognizing that the culture of an institution is critical to patient safety, she speaks about the image and future of nursing, creating healthy work environments, communication, nurse-to-nurse hostility, and improving physician-nurse relationships.

Based on this video, let’s look at incivility in the workplace. Workplace incivility, defined as “characteristically rude and disrespectful, revealing a lack of respect for others” is a significant problem in healthcare settings and especially in nursing. Incivility not only negatively impacts the individual enduring the negative behaviors but also the care that is delivered under the shadow of incivility. There is a great deal of research in this area!

How can incivility in the workplace be addressed?

2. Self-Care:

Complete the personal stress inventory found in Table 13-1 of the textbook. Consider your own coping skills. Review one of the articles below (OR do a library search for an article that discusses “nurse*” and “self-care”) and see what research-based recommendations are made for nurses and their health. Summarize your article and address some of the following questions:

How should one maintain a life–work balance?

How do you manage school, home, and work responsibilities?

In what ways are you taking care of your health? What are the impediments?

Identify one action that you could implement to enhance your physical or psychological health or both.

Choose ONE of the suggested articles available through EFSC library CINAHL data base (feel free to search for one on the same subject matter):

Different cultures have different rules. Read or View at least ONE of the following resources and consider your answer to the following questions:

Summarize ONE of the resources (articles or the Ted Talk), and answer 2 of the following 7 job interview style questions:

Share any experience you have in working with individuals from backgrounds different from yours. How would this experience translate to working within a health care environment and with patients?

What are some of the challenges you have encountered in working with patients from diverse populations?

Do you have experience working with individuals with Limited English Proficiency?

What languages do you speak? If language other than English is offered, ask about proficiency (conversational, fluent, read, write, etc.) and if the proficiency has been tested.

Have you worked with interpreters? If yes, in what capacity and what was your scope of involvement? Are you knowledgeable about a specific culture such that you could serve a mentor role in teaching other staff about that culture?

If you suspected a patient was experiencing challenges (not following treatment plan, missing appointments, etc.) due to cultural preferences, what steps would you take to understand their preferences?

How would you go about building rapport with a patient who is from a background different from yours?
