Guidance - The following guidance should help with regards to the word limit and completing the workbook:

When completing the workbook, you are advised that your text across all the answers should be to a total of no more than 1500 words (+/-10%).  There is an approximate word count at the end of each section to guide you with this, however, it is your decision how many words you dedicate to each answer.

This word count applies to the work that you complete and not the words already within the workbook, such as the patient and procedural information and the questions themselves.

The questions receiving more marks require more words and a more detailed discussion of the evidence. 

All answers must be supported by evidence from theories, research and practice and the evidence must be supported by reference to the current literature, within all of your answers. Your reference list should be placed at the end of the completed workbook. This is NOT included in the word count.

You are required to access and download an electronic copy of the workbook from the OMED 1390 Professional and Academic Development Moodle page and to complete the workbook in an electronic format.

Rationale for the Professionalism and Professional Accountability in Clinical Skills Study Guide

This workbook has been developed to enable Nursing students to develop their knowledge, skills, values and attitudes of professional issues embedded in acquiring and practising clinical skills. Adopting a multi‐professional approach to care will promote standardised practice in the delivery of health care procedures, will encourage effective working relationships and will provide patients with access to multi‐skilled, flexible health care practitioners.

How to Use this Workbook

This workbook will support Nursing students in their studying by enabling them to work at their own pace.

The students will consider professional issues in the context of their own practice, whilst encouraging participants to become aware of related professional issues that affect other health care practitioners.

Demonstrating a professional approach to practice underpins the delivery of all procedural skills in health care. This professionalism workbook should therefore be completed as part of the OMED 1390 Academic and Professional Development module. Throughout the text, activities are provided which will encourage the use of reflective, decision‐making, observational and cognitive skills. Demonstrate an awareness and understanding of the values and beliefs that underpin professional practice
