Discuss one nursing clinical decision
that you have been involved with during a Bachelor of Nursing clinical placement, using all eight
stages of the clinical reasoning cycle (Levett-Jones, 2018). For this task, your critical reflection on
the clinical decision (stage eight) is a significant component of this task, please make reference to
a reflection model (e.g. Gibbs) (please see the corresponding weighting in marking criteria).
1) Analyse how each stage of the clinical reasoning cycle (Levett-Jones, 2018) was applied
to your decision.
2) For stage eight critically reflect on what you have learnt from applying the clinical
reasoning cycle to your chosen decision - contemplate what you learnt from the process
and what you could have done differently (you should make reference to a reflection model
(e.g. Gibbs)).
3) Identify and discuss the relevance of three (3) of the Registered Nurse Standards for
Practice (2016) in relation to your decision-making process.
