My name is Olivia Farnworth, I am a registered nurse at American Fork ICU and I am currently enrolled in my last semester for the BSN at UVU. I absolutely love my job. I find it challenging and exciting and I learn new things to make me a better nurse all the time. I have an amazing and supportive team that I work with and I can’t imagine working anywhere else.
The purpose of this blog is to reflect on what I have learned in a leadership class for my BSN. This is where I will make posts about what I have learned, what my thoughts are and how I feel about things learned during the weekly modules. Someone once told me that there are three methods of learning, first is reading about something, second is doing something and third is reflecting on something. When you read something, you can learn about other people’s experiences and ideas and therefore learn from them. This is probably the the most common form of learning that people utilize. By doing something, you learn how to put knowledge into practice and become skilled at it. Lastly, by reflecting on what you have read and what you have done, you internalize and retain and understand what you have read and done. I don’t believe that anyone of these is more important that the other, simply that they each have their place in the learning process.
This blog will be used to help complete the learning process for each of the weekly modules for my leadership class.
