Abstract

This document is presented in the scope of the Master in Nursing Course in the specialization area of Medical-Surgical Nursing, of the Health Sciences Institute of the Portuguese Catholic University, and intends to report and analyze in a critically-constructive and reflexive way the acquired competences in the different modules during the performance of duties as a Specialist Nurse. This report will describe the professional activity that was credited, the activities and competences developed during the internships, and a reflection on the competences developed, allowing me to find the conclusions of the work accomplished The selection of the trainees fields in the different modules recommended in the course focused on the need to develop skills in the provision of specialized care to the Person and his family in a critical situation in contexts different from the previously known professional practice, reproducing a learning and development path, that took place in the Service of a Central Hospital and in the Pre-Hospital area. Lastly, the module on intensive care was credited for performing functions as a nurse in two intensive care units of a Central Hospital of the Lisbon Region, where a brief critical reflection on the activities and skills developed during my professional experience will be carried out. During the implementation of the stages modules, the importance of training regarding the trauma victim with massive hemorrhage under tranexamic acid performed in the prehospital and the sleep disturbances associated with hospital noise in promoting the comfort of the hospitalized patient emerged, making those the theme of this internship report.
