Goal #1: Long TermBy April 4th, or the end of my winter 2025 clinical placement in long-term care, I will improve my patient communication skills by asking each patient at least 2 open-ended questions each day and practicing empathy. I will monitor this goal by reflecting each week and receiving feedback from my clinical instructor.

Goal #2: Long TermBy April 4th, or the end of my winter 2025 clinical placement in long-term care, I will feel confident performing head-to-toe assessments by practicing taking vitals and providing effective bedside care. I will monitor this goal by recording detailed documents and receiving feedback from my clinical instructor each week.

Goal #3: Short TermAt the beginning of next semester in January 2025, I will develop an organized schedule and to-do list, outlining my classes, seminars, clinical placements and assignments. I will do this within the first week of classes so that I can refer to it throughout the semester and promote better organizational habits.
