Clinicals Week 9

I was unable to schedule any clinical time for the week of November 9th, due to conflicting schedules between me and my preceptor. I did, however. have to time to work on the evaluation for my change project. For my project, I implemented a cheat sheet/algorithm for the nurses to follow for a complicated test that they do on their unit. The orders were very hard to follow and the nurses had made multiple errors on multiple occasions. My preceptor and his nurse managers tell me that the tool was very well received by the nurses on the unit. I plan to ask each of the nurses to fill out an evaluation of the tool and to find out if it was helpful for the nurses that were able to use it.
