It is structured into three areas of competence – Healthcare, Management and Training – adopting the descriptive-analytic method, as well as the reflective-critical regarding the activities carried out, supported in the Training Project and in the portfolios of the three trainings, seeking knowledge in loco but also knowledge based on theoretical and scientific evidence. Motivation along with the willingness of personal and professional growth, the easy integration and increasing autonomy were facilitators of learning, allowing me to acquire skills and competences of Specialist Nursing. At each training period I developed skills and competences, which reflected in the next training periods, as demonstrated by the degree of reflection progressively deeper, as well as at every decision-making I became more assertive, reflective and with high level of responsibility. The all document is accompanied with critical reflection and demonstration of the skill to incorporate knowledge into practice and adapt behaviors towards the differentiated cares and excellence as Specialist Nurse in Medical Surgical Nursing.
