Week 1 Journal Peds: Practicum Journal Entry
As a future advanced practice nurse, it is important that you are
able to connect your didactic experience to your Practicum
experience. By applying the concepts you study in the classroom
to clinical settings, you better prepare yourself for your future
professional career. Each week, you complete an assignment that
prompts you to reflect on your Practicum experiences and relate
them to the material presented in the classroom.
To prepare for this course’s Practicum experience, address the
following in your Practicum journal:
Explain what most excites and/or concerns you about pediatric
clinical experiences. Include a description of your strengths and
weaknesses in terms of working with children and how these
strengths and weaknesses might impact your Practicum
experience.
Select and explain a nursing theory to guide your practice with
pediatric patients.
Based on your strengths, weaknesses, and theory of nursing
practice, develop goals and objectives for the Practicum
experience in this course. Be sure to consider the NAPNAP
Position Statement on Age Parameters for Pediatric Nurse
Practitioner Practice from this week’s Learning Resources.
