    Experience Prof. Jonaid Sadang
    Day 1
    Narrative Report
    As I start the second day of geriatric duty within my community, I
    prepared my school uniform and prepared my geriatric assessment tool.
    Today, January 26th 2021, I am tasked to identify an elderly person,
    preferably a kin, to be assessed and serve as my client throughout the given
    activities by my professor, Sir Jonaid Sadang. There are a lot of elders in my
    neighborhood, but not everyone is willing to partake in my activity, as a
    nursing student. Since the elder client I’ll choose will partake in the nursing
    process, that the elders claim is time consuming and uncomfortable to them,
    especially the nursing assessment. Luckily, my aunt agreed to partake in my
    thorough geriatric assessment.
    Before starting my geriatric assessment, I introduced myself properly to my
    older client and discussed necessary information regarding my geriatric
    assessment. I also explained to her the benefits and importance of the
    assessment for her well-being and gave her the idea that I might ask some
    personal questions during the assessment.
    During the interview, my older client is responsive to every inquiry I
    asked and necessary information was obtained. Accordingly, from asking
    personal questions during the interview, I asked permission to my older
    client that I will be starting the thorough physical examination, that requires
    privacy to maintain her dignity. Ergo, we entered an empty room and carried
    out the physical examinations. Initially, my elder client was hesitant to
    participate in the physical examination because of the exposure of private
    areas, but I encouraged her that the information will be confidential and the
    procedure is safe. Lastly, after we did all the necessary components of my
    comprehensive geriatric assessment, I expressed my gratitude, for her
    cooperation and the useful information I obtained.
    In the virtual duty, there are a lot of challenges faced by nursing students.
    The challenging part of online learning is that, even the most basic activity of
    case assignment is mindfully considered, whereas, in a geriatric facilities,
    nursing students can easily identify a patient and initiate the nursing process
    immediately, unlike in the home-based learning environment. I think I can get a
    better grasp of geriatric care in a health care setting because the environment is
    deemed for elders.
    In addition, I learned that is it necessary that I, as a student nurse, should be
    aware of flow or sequence of the geriatric assessment tool, especially the
    specific questions to be asked to the elder patient. If a student nurse prepares
    beforehand, this results to lesser time during assessment. Over all, it was a
    memorable experience, that added knowledge in my study of geriatrics.
