My SMART Goals
Short-term goal: Receiving at least 7 hours of sleep during the weekdays to improve focus during lectures and remain in a clear mindset.
My short term goal included receiving at least 7 hours of sleep during the weekdays to improve my focus during lectures and remain in a clear mindset. I feel this goal will help me remain focused during lectures and allows me to feel more energized completing assignments. Adjusting to an earlier sleep schedule can take up to 10 days to achieve, which can easily be accomplished. I feel this goal will be achievable by limiting the amount of distractions before bed. For example, putting all devices out of reach can help the mind relax and fall asleep faster.
Long-term goal: In the first week of clinicals, I am going to provide holistic care by addressing at least 1 physical, emotional or social need for at least one patient person clinical week.
In the first week of clinicals, I am going to provide holistic care by addressing at least 1 physical, emotional or social need for at least one patient person clinical week. This goal can be accomplished during clinicals by incorporating the information I am learned into my practice. This goal will be achieved and improved over time by allowing myself to learn and grow during new experiences. I feel this goal is accomplishable because during clinical I will have the opportunity to engage with new patients and peers.
