Becoming a Reflective Practitioner Summary

Becoming a Reflective Practitioner by Christopher Johns (Reader in Advanced Nursing Practice at the University of Luton)

BECOMING A REFLECTIVE PRACTITIONER

In the newly revised sixth edition of Becoming a Reflective Practitioner, expert researcher and nurse Christopher Johns delivers a rich and incisive resource on reflective practice in healthcare that offers readers a diverse and expansive range of contributions. It explores the value of using models of reflection, with a focus on John's own model of structured reflection, to inform and enhance the practice of professional nursing.

This book is an essential guide for everyone using reflection in everyday clinical practice or required to demonstrate reflection for professional registration. Students will acquire new insights into how they interact with their colleagues and their environment, and how those things shape their own behaviours, both positively and negatively. Readers will learn to look in on their thoughts and emotions and look out at the situations they experience to inform how they understand the circumstances they find themselves in.

Readers will also benefit from:

  • Thorough introductions to reflective practice, writing the Self and engaging in the reflective spiral
  • Comprehensive explorations of how to frame and deepen insights, weave and perform narratives
  • Practical discussions of how to move towards more poetic form of expression and reflecting through art and storyboard
  • In-depth examinations of the reflective curriculum, touch and the environment and reflective teaching as ethical practice

Perfect for nurses in clinical practice, conducting research or developing their practice, the latest edition of Becoming a Reflective Practitioner is also an indispensable resource for mentors and clinical supervisors, post-registration nursing and healthcare students and other healthcare practitioners.
