April Post
At my mentorship, training started for the volunteers. The first day of training, my instructor taught me the basics that I should kind of know. He showed me how to preform pastoral care rounds, know the information on the patient's board and know if they can have regular water or Frazier water, and deliver meals to patients. On the second day my instructor taught me how to make patient's bed, pass out water to patients, take dirty equipment from the soiled utility room to dirty side of Central Supply.

Blog 19: Independent Component 2
LITERAL
(a) I, Adriane Parale, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 36 hours of work.
(b) -Heinasmaki, Terhi, and Ainna Fawcett-Henesy. "Infection And Infectious Diseases."
-Frompovich, Catherine J. "Do Nurses Have It Right About Vaccinations?"
-O'Connor, Anahad. "Health and Wellness - Well Blog - NYTimes.com."
-Infection Control, Personal Protective Equipment/Body Substance Exposure by Citrus Valley Health Partners.
(c) Hours
(d) For my independent component two, at my mentorship I started my 3 day training for the new volunteer program. The first day I was assigned to shadow a Patient Care Technician. He showed me the basic elements of training, like answering call lights, delivering food trays and clear off all trays once staff has recorded % eaten, and proper application and removal of Personal Protective Equipment. Also I've volunteered at the school's blood drive and made sure that each downer checked in with their IDs and made sure that after giving blood they don't faint.
INTERPRETIVE
This really help me interact with the patients more and do more hands on work outside the nurses' station at my mentorship. The first day of training really helped me understand the importance of just the basics of my training which were knowing the visiting hours to making a patient's bed to knowing the proper application and removal of PPE. The blood drive also helped me understand that to make sure that if a patient/downer has traveled outside the U.S. that they have to make sure how long that person as been out. For the reason is that they have caught an infectious diseases after their stay outside the states.
APPLIED
With the new volunteer program, the training that I'm getting helps me understand how nurses protect themselves from infectious disease by myself protecting too. The knowledge that a gained on my first day of training helped me understand my first and second answer which is hand hygiene and personal protective equipment. Also with the research that I did help me get more facts about my first two answers and a little more of my foundation of my E.Q. With the blood drive, my observations helped me understand how the nurses preform infection control in any setting. This component has allowed me to understand both of my first two answers more of the foundation because I was able to experience both of my answers.
