Reflection on Your Personal Philosophy

The field of philosophy comprises many powerful ideas and beliefs, from what is right and wrong to what is the nature of reality and truth. You also had the opportunity to think about your own beliefs and ideas. This Reflection is an invitation for you to continue to examine your beliefs and to think critically about the world and the big questions covered in this course.

It is also an opportunity for you to capture how your learning will enhance positive social change. Walden University defines positive social change as a deliberate process of creating and applying ideas, strategies, and actions to promote the worth, dignity, and development of individuals, communities, organizations, institutions, cultures, and societies. Positive social change results in the improvement of human and social conditions.

To prepare for this Final Reflection:

Review your “What Is Philosophy?” survey from Week 1 and think about how your knowledge has evolved and improved.
Take note of what you have learned in the course.
Take note of the challenging aspects of the course.
Take note of what you can do with what you have learned.
Take note of how your beliefs have changed or have been strengthened as a result of this course.
List areas of your life this learning would impact.
Review Walden’s definition of social change as described above.

Respond to the following questions in a 500-word paper that is no longer than 2 pages in length:

  • What have you learned about philosophy?
  • How has your knowledge of the field of philosophy improved?
  • How do you think what you have learned will change or improve your life?
  • How do you think what you have learned will help you engage in social change?

Clinical-Community Engagement

Write a 3-4 page critical response paper on Clinical-Community Engagement in which you reflect on the readings, class discussions from the unit. You should incorporate your own personal experiences and/or observations, but they must be interwoven with ideas, excerpts, theories, references from the readings/focus groups. Your paper should NOT be a summary of the arguments, but critical response to 2-3 themes from the unit that most resonated with you.

The discussion should be about clinical community engagement and the importance of understanding the community hospitals and health care facilities are working with. Vulnerable communities have often lacked trust in large healthcare systems because of mistreatment.

Understanding that clinical community engagement should focus on the patient and not motives that hospitals think that the community needs. Community Health Workers are important because these workers are able to form a relationship with patients and often time can meet the needs of the patients.

I believe that hospitals can play a major role in stemming these inequities in health in vulnerable populations by understanding the needs of the community. Identifying that health is larger than a hospital visit or meeting with a physician but the identifying structural barriers to health like food insecurity, lack of insurance, access to hospitals.

White hospitals and Black communities must share power. The ideology driving the course is that health equity cannot be achieved without engagement between individuals and communities in the context of social determinants of health, and the researchers, policy-makers, and clinicians who work in those spaces.

Identify the benefits of working in a diverse healthcare organization

Identify the benefits of working in a diverse healthcare organization. Include the benefits to patient care.
Identify the barriers to developing a diverse organization.
Apply your dominant leadership style and address the identified barriers to assist your organization in becoming more diverse. This leadership style may be the one you discussed in Week 1 or maybe one found in Chapter 8 of the textbook.
Lastly, identify how a diverse organization assists in creating a competitive advantage within the healthcare environment.

Role and responsibilities of a nurse in reducing the risk of Coronavirus and pandemic infection

Role and responsibilities of a nurse in reducing the risk of Coronavirus and pandemic infection; The coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic is the defining global health crisis of our time and the greatest challenge we have faced since World War Two. Since its emergence in Asia late last year, the virus has spread to every continent. The tragic milestone of one million deaths, and the human family is suffering under an almost intolerable burden of loss.

  1. Define Corona Virus and its pandemic outbreak throughout the world.
  2. Explain the role and responsibilities of a nurse in reducing the risk of Corona infection in society?
  3. Explain how to manage those affected people by the virus mentioned about priority triage.

Personal philosophy of nursing

Write a 2- to 3-page paper that explains your personal philosophy of nursing. It should examine and identify your own perspective (definition) of the metaparadigm of nursing, person, health, and environment, as well as identify other concepts you believe should be a part of our metaparadigm. Additionally, your paper must:

  • Discuss how these concepts are interrelated in terms of how you understand and accomplish your work.
  • Include one or more examples from your work that captures the essence of your philosophy.
  • Explain what is important in your practice of nursing. Consider including your values, beliefs, and assumptions about nursing as a science and as an art. Answer this question from one of the following perspectives:
    • Pediatric nurses: What is your philosophy regarding the nursing care of children?
    • Hospice nurses: What is your philosophy regarding the care of people at the end of life?
    • Mental health nurses: What is your philosophy of mental health nursing?
  • Include a global view of nursing. Examples include your experience in practice and your particular area of practice.
  • This paper should be written in your own words but without any use of first person. It may be difficult to write about your personal philosophy, including personal examples, without using the first person. However, it will be good practice to write a scholarly paper in this manner. Consider using “The author believes…” or “One might expect…” instead.
  • No citations are required; however, if the writings or statements of others have influenced your philosophy, these can be included and should be properly cited.
  • The paper should be double spaced and formatted according to APA (American Psychological Association) standards.
