Reflective journaling is an opportunity for you to reflect on your experiences in a way that encourages mindfulness and engages your critical/analytical thinking. In addition, reflective journaling can result in personal and professional growth. You will be required to answer two (2) questions. The journal entry should be typed in a word document and submitted to Canvas. A UTA APA formatted title page is required. The journal entry should be no longer than 3 pages, excluding the title page (worth 5 points). References are not required for this assignment as it is a reflection of the student’s experience in clinical. Patient identifying information (e.g., DOB, name, initials, MRN, clinical facility name) information should not be included in the journal entries. Answer the following questions. Please note that each question has multiple questions and/or parts. Describe a time in clinical when you faced a challenge in the diagnosis, evaluation and/or management of a patient. How did you work through the problem? How did if feel? Describe a time when you provided care which was culturally, spiritually, ethically, age, gender or sexual orientation sensitive. How did this impact the care you provided? How did the patient respond? How did it feel?
