Chapter 6 Beginning Collection of Artifacts.

       Artifacts in a nursing portfolio act more as evidence of accomplishments, personal and career development, and adherence to the standards. The Certification of Completion in CPR attests to my deep concern for patient care and readiness to tackle related health emergencies and my dedication to core nursing courses. In a sample of the reflective journal, skills in critical thinking, experience gained, and lessons learnt are crucial characteristics for growth. Last, a clinical evaluation report is evidence of my improvement and skills in practising theoretical knowledge and that I can fulfil clinical expectations. These artefacts can then confirm the student’s nursing undertaking and relate achievement to nursing principles. The documents represent irrefutable evidence of my willingness to advance further in a profession and improve the patients’ lives.
