Clinical Reasoning Case planning connected assessment findings with nursing diagnoses, interventions, and evaluation, making priorities clearer during debriefings. Sterile Practice Repeated simulation stations built steady awareness of sterile boundaries, contamination risks, counts, and corrective actions. Team Communication SBAR practice helped present focused findings to anesthesia and surgical peers, and classmates sought clear handoff guidance. Reflective Learning After each simulation, reviewed feedback and adjusted sequencing or escalation steps, turning small observations into better preparation.

Work covered care planning , verification, intraoperative priorities, handoff communication, infection prevention, and evidence based presentation. Mapped perioperative transitions for simulated adult cases using assessment , verification, handoff, and evaluation steps. Applied nursing process across 12 scenarios, documenting diagnoses, interventions, implementation steps, and evaluation criteria. Practiced sterile field awareness, surgical counts , positioning principles, specimen handling , and circulating communication. Built preoperative checklist covering identity, procedure, consent, allergies, history, and required documentation. Reviewed infection prevention evidence and presented practical surgical safety findings to 18 classmates. Revised escalation and handoff protocol after simulation debriefings identified communication and workflow gaps. Operating Room Nursing Simulation Student Lab September 2025 - December 2025 Greensboro, NC Supervised simulation experience introducing operating room workflows for circulating and scrub roles across several surgical specialties. Repeated competency stations developed room preparation, sterile practice, assessment, SBAR communication, charting, patient advocacy, and response to feedback. Completed supervised simulations for general surgery , orthopedics, gynecology, and urology operating room scenarios. Prepared rooms with preference information, supply lists, and safety checks before simulated patient arrival. Recognized contamination events during timed scenarios and initiated corrective actions under instructor observation. Conducted simulated assessments and interviews, then communicated findings through SBAR to surgical team peers. Documented events, counts, positioning checks, and handoff details in perioperative training records. Applied preceptor feedback to improve sequencing, communication, situational awareness, and patient advocacy . Perioperative Patient Safety Research Project Academic Research January 2025 - May 2025 Greensboro, NC Academic research project examined preventable perioperative safety events and translated published evidence into practical nursing actions. Work supported transparent review, interdisciplinary communication, patient identification, infection prevention, positioning, and safe transitions within supervised practice. Examined evidence on patient identification , communication, infection prevention , positioning, and transitions of care. Compared 20 peer reviewed sources by study design, setting, intervention, and reported safety outcome. Translated findings into nursing actions aligned with assessment , planning, implementation, and evaluation . Created poster showing how verification and standardized communication support safer surgical workflows. Presented research to a nursing seminar and answered faculty questions about evidence limitations. Maintained citations, project notes, and version controlled files for transparent academic review. PROJECTS Perioperative Safety Transition Study May 2025 Created an evidence informed study of surgical verification, infection prevention, patient positioning, and handoff practices. The project made safety concepts easier to discuss during supervised clinical learning and connected research findings with respectful patient advocacy.
