I was picked due to my GPA to be in a special classes that allows only 10 students to spend more time in an area of nursing that they think they might be interested in. I am interested in mother/baby, specifically the newborn nursery. That is where my experience for this class will be. We need to make up 4-5 measureable objectives of things that we would like to accomplish during our time there. This is becoming hard because we really aren't allow to do any invasive procedures or administer medications. If anyone has some ideas of things that would be beneficial for me to participate in or view during this experience in this area I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
So far I've compiled these that I might have to try to tweak to make them somehow measureable:
*Participate in an admission exam to the nursery
*View how a heel stick is done in order to collect blood for screening tests
*Learn how a nursery nurse plans her day and structures it around the needs of the newborns in the nursery
