Telemetry Unit
Identification and Description of my Clinical Environment
Overtly, my clinical setting is specifically the telemetry unit whereby nurses acquainted with skills and training required in this department do operate. Fundamentally, all that happens in this unit is that a nurse monitors patient’s crucial signs with the help of an instrument referred to as electrocardiogram. In telemetry unit, the machine as mentioned above is used by the telemetry nurse to inspect the rate of patient’s blood pressure and heart beats to help control the extreme of these cases in the course of the medication process. An individual trained to work at this unit is known as telemetry nurse, and his or her role is to offer care to patients suffering cardiac diseases such as diabetes and heart attacks. I operate at Prince Georges Community Hospital located at Cheverly MD. The telemetry unit at this center has 22 rooms and 30 patients at the moment. Additionally, the unit has 38 beds, 8 nurses per 12 hours shift or 7 depending on if the beds are all full. Then, every telemetry nurse attends to 5 patients. Lastly, this unit handles the patients suffering from stroke, organ failures, cardiac diseases, DM, DHL, and CHF along with pre and post op patients.
Benefits of a clinical experience in Telemetry nursing
After my clinical experience at the telemetry unit, i will acquire a considerable amount of field knowledge required for me to be a qualified telemetry nurse. Interaction with professionals who have been for long in the field will help me to embody the aspects that have been incorporated in this type of setting. For instance, i will know how to use the detective machine, and this will augment my knowledge in the area of study (Pies, et al., 2014). As well, one will get the personal interaction with professionals in the field of telemetry, and this will contribute into nurturing me into a professional and qualified telemetry nurse. After one is through with the college education, it will be easy for them to adapt to the telemetry unit since they have already had prior experience, and this will make them more efficient and conversant with anything used in the arena. As well, one will know how to handle the patients along with embracing the ethics that ought to be observed by a telemetry nurse. Moreover, one will know how to handle patients of the cardiac diseases since it is in this unit whereby these patients are treated.
The learning outcomes/goals based on telemetry nursing and personal learning needs
• In the due course, one will have amassed the required practical experience that makes one a qualified telemetry nurse. Once one has acquired these skills, he or she has the potential to operate under minimal supervision.
• All that one has been learning in the class work will be brought into practical experience, and this will make the learner synthesize it better once he or she operates on a telemetry unit. Ideally, this project will aim at integrating theory and practical works.
• The learner will be made to experience the hardships associated when one deals with hectic work schedule and handling the patients with cardiac diseases and others.
• Personal interaction with the setting will make the learner a better telemetry nurse since this program integrates them to the program fully.

Intended ways of meeting the additional learning outcomes
Other than attending the mandatory practicum program, it will be necessary to seek more knowledge regarding the field of telemetry nursing. Since in this centre only one particular device for conducting the work is noticeable, it will be wise that I visit other telemetry units to get more knowledge on the same area of study. Indeed, this will help to enrich me with vast of understanding about the field. As I visit the other centres, I will have to interview those I find there so that they can share their practical experiences. It will be encouraging if they tell the hardships they undergo and the way they deal with them so that I can embody these crucial aspects.
