In Practice

2. Now write out a plan that details where you see yourself in five years, career wise. How ready are you right now for these planned roles? What do you still need to develop? How can you do this? Write down your thoughts and budding plan on the worksheet provided. SHARE THESE IN THE DISCUSSION FORUM.

3. Since Canadian health care delivery is always changing in response to our changing society, your learning of new knowledge and skills needs to be an ongoing process. By enrolling in this program, you have already demostrated that you are taking responsibility for maintaining and acquiring new skills. Now it is time to explore further methods for maintaining interest and competence. This will be an important step in preparing yourself for nursing practice. You will be expected to engage in the professional development process on an ongoing basis, and prepare an annual review of your life-long learning activities.
Think about the process and topics you feel you would like to learn over the next year and jot them down in the table on the worksheet.
