When I compare my clinical experiences from India to the clinic experiences that the nursing students here are receiving, I feel that there is a lack of clinical experiences here. I wish to share my knowledge and experience with the students so that they are able to grow in their career. I remember (before COVID) when the students were able to come to the hospital for their clinicals. They were there only for four hours one a day, for maximum of 5 weeks. The instructor would come and ask me for any insulin administration or Lovenox administration. I was happy to give them those patients. One of the patients that the student was taking care of had GT feeding bolus plus medications. Since it was my patient, and I had a good rep with the instructor, I asked permission if the student was able to do bolus feeding. To my dismay, the instructor told me that they were not able to give bolus yet. Then I requested if I could show the students how to do it, which the instructor was okay with. Instead of two students I had 6 six students watch me administer bolus feeding as well as medication administration.

Question #2 CNE, Incivility, Changes Denise Bayne  -Honestly, I had no idea that there was a certification to become a Nurse Educator. I am currently a Certified Health Education Specialist. I took the test following my graduation with a bachelor’s degree in Health Education and have been certified for the last 6 years. Although becoming a nursing instructor is what I plan on becoming, I do not think I will become a Certified Nurse Educator. The major reason is that I am already a certified educator and do not feel that I would need this certification. If the facility that I work for requires the certification and they would pay for the testing, then I would take the test.             Incivility in nursing education is defined as disruptive behaviors from both nursing faculty and nursing students that contribute negatively on the academic environment (Muliira, Natarajan, & van der Colff, 2017). According to the article, nursing faculty showed incivility by late attendance, leaving early, cancelling classes, ineffective teaching styles or methods, and subjective grading (Muliira, Natarajan, & van der Colff, 2017). The incivility of the nursing faculty also included disrespectful comments to other faculty, challenges in faculty credibility, and disrespectful comments to nursing students. To mitigate subjective grading styles, faculty should assign rubrics to all assignments. This will give nursing students an outline of the requirements for the project and discourage subjective grading.             I fell that communication within my organization needs to change. I feel that there is a lack of communication between nursing management, doctors, and nurses. Decisions within the facility are being made without the input of nursing supervisors and the lack of communication about decisions is not being communicated effectively. I would recommend that doctors, nursing management, and nursing supervisor have a weekly meeting where information can be discussed prior to implementation. This change can help nursing supervisors answer questions nurses have prior to the implementation of the changes. First step would be to schedule weekly meetings.
