M.D.L. : I feel that I had been able to strengthen my ability to manage my time and organizational skills in the clinical setting. At the beginning of
placement, I found that it was quite difficult achieve these skills because of not knowing the amount of time it would take for me to complete my daily
nursing tasks. However, after some clinical practice, I was able to time myself for each task, and I was organize my nursing tasks accordingly.
I also feel that I communicate very well with my instructor, primary nurse, colleagues, and patients. I try to ensure that I am very clear and concise

M.D.L. : In order to improve my body mechanics during care I can review the basic body mechanics sheet provided from Sunnybrook's In-Service-

order to be more confident in my nursing abilities I will constantly review and ask instructors about some of the nursing procedures that I may feel
weak in.
