Nursing 220 Long-Term Care Facility

Long Term Care Facility


I worked at Tacoma Lutheran Long Term Care Facility for approximately six weeks during my semester of Nursing 220. During this time I had three clients. Unfortunately, I had two clients pass while I was there. My last client was a spitfire lady who loved to play rummy. This experience was my first experience in a health care facility and believe me, I was really scared and overwhelmed at first. Not only did I learn how a facility works but was able to use and practice some skills I acquired in lab on giving basic care. Please see my links to read papers about my experiences.

Future goals:

I hope that I can expand on this experience with other clinicals, and learn to incorporate new skills as well as provide evidence based care.

Other Clinicals include:
* Obstetrics (Nursing 370)
* Pediatrics (Nursing 380)
* Adult care (Nursing 340)
* Mental health (Nursing 350)
