RNs use a variety of thinking strategies and the best available evidence in making decisions and providing safe, quality nursing practice within person-centred and evidence-based frameworks.
The registered nurse:
1.1 accesses, analyses, and uses the best available evidence, that includes research findings, for safe, quality practice
1.2 develops practice through reflection on experiences, knowledge, actions, feelings and beliefs to identify how these shape practice
1.3 respects all cultures and experiences, which includes responding to the role of family and community that underpin the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and people of other cultures
1.4 complies with legislation, regulations, policies, guidelines and other standards or requirements relevant to the context of practice when making decisions
1.5 uses ethical frameworks when making decisions
1.6 maintains accurate, comprehensive and timely documentation of assessments, planning, decision-making, actions and evaluations, and
1.7 contributes to quality improvement and relevant research.
•HSNS206 (UNE) course content – Trimester three 2018 (enrollment)
•Justification: One of the topics of HSNS206 was the responsibility and accountability of nurses and student nurses in relation to medication administration. With the help of assessment, I started developing an awareness of the medication administration legislation in Australia, and the ability to critically analyze the medication policies, guidelines in relation to the registered nurse standards for practice (NMBA).

Clinical Placement Goals
Justification- One of the task assigned to me was to prepare my clinical goals and to discuss with my clinical facilitator. These goals were to be reviewed by the RN as well and the criteria was set to meet those goals in an efficient manner.
Justification- I had studied Working with Aboriginal people in Trimester 1 2020. I got insight about the Stolen Generation, owner of the Australian land and the connection of Indigenous people with land and water. I learnt the basics of their culture but I want to explore more about their lifestyle, connection, beliefs and priorities in life and meaning of being healthy to them.
