Anyone know of a website with some narrative notes examples???

Published

I had my first week of clinicals this week and had a hard time getting the narrative notes done..I am a little confused on what I am supposed to be writing and would like to see some examples. If anyone knows where I can find some I would be greatful! :)

A flag and a koala - I'm spoiled :)

Unlike your daughter I am not artistic - that gift went to one of my sisters, and facility for music passed all of us by. If you don't like 'labelled' (Aussie spelling!) how about 'identified as gifted'?

I had every advantage, including going to a school that streamed me into their high achieving class, and coasted through life. If it hadn't been for the accident of me discovering nurse I could have ended up like one of those MENSA people - smart and working as a garbo (I'm saying people who belong to MENSA are necessarily underachieving, just that I would have been :)). It's hard to have a sense of accomplishment without the effort.

And now that I re-read that it sounds as though I'm predicting a pointless, wasted life for your daughter - I'm not, I swear! I get the feeling that you (unlike my parents) will take a hand in guiding your daughter so that she doesn't coast :)

D**n, and there you were, liking me. I am very aware that I am where I am through luck - I think our society minimises the impact luck has on our lives (the British philosopher Alain de Botton has written a fantastic book, "Status Anxiety" which in part deals with this topic, which is the only reason I'm able to articulate it). I can take pride in the kind of person I am, and the kind of nurse I am (she says, finishing off this post instead of weighing the renal patients before breakfast!), but the gifts I have are accidents, not proof of my innate superiority. Do you like me again?

(Paranoia wars with insecurity - who will win?!)
