The Finger Lakes Health College of Nursing is an accredited school that offers a comprehensive education with the mindset focused on success. Integrated learning is built into the curriculum based on the foundation of Liberal Arts and Sciences. With these foundations, students have a better understanding, and are prepared for achievement.
Liberal Arts and Science has been the leading pathway for myself to build reasoning, and critical thinking skills which has helped my survival thus far through first semester. The journey through Nursing Science I has been an eye opener. Through clinical, out rotations, along with classroom related projects my education, and knowledge of prior classes such as Developmental Psychology, English, and Anatomy and Physiology I and II have been utilized.
Developmental Psychology was best utilized through the out rotation of Child care, by exposing the study of children.

I was able to relate the age group to the stage of Initiative Vs. Guilt. Relating the foundation to the activities …show more content…

This foundation has been utilized multiple times throughout the semester with creativity through my different Reflective Journals, Care Plans, and Technology papers, such as “Why I want to be a Nurse”. Comprehension of English I feel, is a futile foundation for communication. Without proper oral and written skills, I would not have been able to do as well. Writing and expression is a large part of continuing education. My interest and willingness to complete the writing components required is based off of a confident knowledge base. Students that may not have the proper foundation would be more hesitant and struggle with this

While observing children, whether in person at my job, or through a movie, it is not hard to relate it to what I learned in developmental psychology. The movie Daddy Day Care was interesting to watch because I could apply the information I learned to analyze the movie. Throughout the beginning of the movie there were many inappropriate child care practices and activities. The lunch was not healthy for the children, they were eating candy and junk food.

The current healthcare organization such as the hospital has grown from a public nonprofit organization, providing charity care to the ailing poor to one that depend on profit to survive. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that a number of for-profit hospitals made their inauguration in the U.S. With that said, according to the American Hospital Association’s 2010 survey data, more than a third of community hospitals in the U.S. are for-profit (AHA, 2010). As God’s children there should not be a time when it is forgotten in regards to the reason for our existence and what our primary responsibility is as health care leaders. The purpose is to provide those that come to the infirmary at their weakest and most vulnerable moments with safe, effective, timely, high quality health care services delivered in a respectful, caring, compassionate, honest and kind way.

It also includes how individual, social and cultural factors may influence their development. Child study is of comparatively recent origin.

To pursue a Bachelor’s degree in nursing is pursuing much more than just a degree or profession- it is more so pursuing a privilege of value, compassion, humanity, and solicitude that surpasses any occupation a regular job can offer. The tasks put at hand, the lives that are touched, and the overall attentiveness put forth by these nurses is the reason so many lives are refined each and every day. One of the best things I believe I will personally obtain from being a nurse is being able to fulfil and change lives through people’s illness while being able to contribute to their life in a supportive way. My mother has Multiple Sclerosis, a disease that progressively weakens muscle coordination throughout the body, and for the past nine years

It is through child development theorists and their theories that we begin to form an understanding of how children develop emotionally and socially to become fully grown adults in society with a moral and emotional compass/. Teachers need to study child development in order to provide developmentally appropriate educational experiences for children. Health professionals also need to understand this area to support children in their physical, social, emotional and cognitive journey to becoming functioning adults in society.
