My Workstation

   

My computer workstation is safe and ergonomically situated. i am using my laptop and cellphone when working and during my online class. I use external keyboard and I use some extensions so that I could use my laptop USB port for other things like USB when transferring files. 

    

    Since I am always at my workstation, I always clean it before using it. I will use some alcohol to disinfect my laptop, my eternal keyboard and my mouse which I am always touching. I know that these are the two things in my computer set up where I could get an infection so I always clean them with alcohol and also my table, I wash it then after that when it is dry, I will spray alcohol then let it dry then I will use it afterwards. Same goes when I am off my table, I will clean it. When in hospital the best way to protect our clients from getting or being exposed to computer transmitted infection is to always remind them to perform hand washing or hand hygiene before and after touching anything to make sure that they did not get any microorganism that could cause them disease. As nurses, I think it is responsibility that we keep our place safe and clean not just for us but also for our client. We need to clean our workstation always before and after using it to avoid or to minimize the risk of infection or cross contamination.

    

    Using standardized nursing language, we nurses can communicate freely and accurately even one of the nurses are in the emergency ward and passing information into the operating room nurse, they understand what each other are saying. In nursing, communication is critical, using this standardized nursing language, we can deliver information in a swift, clear, and effective way. The things I will consider when implementing the SNL are if this will help patient not just nurses but patient, because they are our first priority. Can we give them the best care as possible while using the SNL? Will there be any errors or any miscommunication that will happen? Something like that because communication is critical in terms of nurse communicating to another nurse and to other professional. It implementing the SNL our main goal is to give patient the best care as possible and for us to do that we need to be in one page and performing it for our client. It will not be easy but it will be understood soon when we are using it as one and we can see progress in our nursing interventions and with the prognosis of our clients.

    We all undergo phase where we need to adopt and telehealth and telenursing exercise are one of them. It is not displacing nurses in physical hospital but it is actually a help and a rapport that we can build with our client prior to meeting personally. We know that as nurses, may it be physical or virtual we all have same obligations and responsibilities with ourselves and our clients and that is to let our client know that even we are just meeting online, we are listening and we are creating a plan or interventions to help them with their problem in health. We can assure our client by listening to them attentively and by making sure that they are being heard and that we can provide the care even though it is online. In this way we can assure our client that we are not compromising our work instead, we are evolving into helping them to shape their health for the betterment of themselves.
