Capstone Clinical Experience
- 112 capstone hours in Unit IC-5, enhancing support for children and families at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center.
- This allowed me to experience a full 12-hour shift and nursing schedule. By being able to go in multiple days a week and see the same patient's progress. IC-5 is an integrated care unit including both behavioral health and med-surg. It enhanced my active listening, charting, nursing care, rounds, and med pass skills. I gained the confidence of providing nursing care while effectively communicating with patients and adapting to their needs.
