Life story interview/ project was design for you to get to know a random stranger or a close friends. You would asked general questions about the person life, school, work and family, therefore many will open up to you but a lot of people would not. Before you did the interview you had taken a NIH certification make sure you understand how to do the interview. You had recorded it, transmitted it, coded it and then present it to the class. Once everything was done you learned something new about this person or you may look at their cultural a different way. NIH certification process was very long to me because you actual had to read it in order for you to take the quiz at each section. However I never knew that you need some …show more content…
type of certification in order for you to conduct an interview on somebody life. The only good part about the NIH certification its good for five years, so I can continue do research interview and not go through process of taking NIH certification until five years from now. Omg?
I’m very shy person and I don’t like talk to people I don’t know or asking people serious of questions because it make me feel uncomfortable. The person I interview, she worked at my job but I never really talk to her until one day in the break room. I decided to do my interview on her, she very shy person like me so a lot of questions she took a long pauses before answering the questions. I can say after doing this interview it made me be more talkative towards people and I understood why she was shy, quiet and stayed to herself. I really enjoy doing this interview and I would like to do another interview but with an older crowd. However when you get ready to do this assignment again see can we have any age limit, the reason I say that because it was this young lady I had in mind to do but she was under the age. The transcription part drove me insane, I didn’t like this part at all. The reason I hated the transcription part so much because I kept forgetting to type something and I had play the recording all over again. When doing transcription it took forever and I really thought I was never going to finish, my hand went to hurting from typing so much. I just wish this part was out of the
project. When you code your paper you can really see what stood out to that induvial and what hurt that person the most. I feel like coding give you some type of inside on that person life. The reason I say that because you now have an understanding why that person don’t smile or talk. I really enjoy this part a lot out of the whole project. Coming to class for the past two weeks and hearing about everybody interview was good idea. Presentation part was the best because some people interview was happy and some people interview was sad. Some people presented to the class by note cards or a PowerPoint. However I didn’t like was when person was giving they presentation people kept walking in and out, I feel like the door should have been locked until that person was finish.
For my informational interview I spoke with a nurse who has experience working on a medical surgical unit in a hospital setting. She has been a nurse for 10 years. She also has her bachelors degree in nursing. I started my interview by introducing myself and explaining what my assignment was about, and how she could help me tremendously with answering some questions regarding her nursing career, and what she does as a medical surgical nurse.
This week I focused on facilitating life review for my patients. Life review required me to ask the patient questions regarding their life. It gave me a guided and goal directed method of asking personal questions about the patient’s family and social history. I used this intervention twice this week. The first time, the female patient responded well. She went into depth about her family and her social history. I learned a lot about her, and made sure that I followed along and asked questions to could help visualize her story better. She seemed to really enjoy speaking about her life, as evidenced by her smiling and continuing the conversation for about 50 minutes. My last visit with this patient was about 20 minutes, so life review may be a successful intervention with her.
You will interview a friend or family member who is elderly, a child, or who has a developmental disability, about an event or incident in his or her daily life. Summarize the story they tell you and identify the set of interview techniques that you utilized. Explain why you used these interview techniques. Discuss what considerations you took into account prior to interviewing this individual.
Before the activity started I made some question that were related with the culture of the person and that would lead me to know many things about the culture of the person. Before, the interview started I felt so happy that my friend from Nigeria accepted to have an interview with me even though he looked like if he was doing homework. I could appreciate desire of willingness. So I started the interview asking open questions like how is the
A major life event that started me to pursue an education in nursing was my time in basic training. The most life changing event during my induction into the army at ft. Jackson before starting basic training was accepting Christ as my personal lord and savior. When I decided to go into the Army 4 years out of high school I was a student firefighter E.M.T. working towards my paramedic, incidents at the Dept. I worked at both before and after some traumatic emergency responses actually turned me away from practicing any sort of medicine and causing me to seek the military for a new career or to pay for me to go back to school for another career if the military wasn’t my thing. During Basic training as stated above I was already a licensed E.M.T.
This reflection paper is based on the life history interview conducted on me and a 78-year-old woman who is soon going to celebrate her 79th birthday on Sep 21st. I would call her with a fictitious name “Smita” in the entire paper to maintain and protect her privacy. The interview was about our life. It was divided into six major life categories: childhood, adulthood, identity, the present, aging, and life lessons. Having an opportunity to interview a 78-year-old woman and writing this reflective paper about the life history and experiences had made me realize that I have a lot to learn about the stages of human life. Every individual lives are different and it varies tremendously. As an interviewee my goal was to collect the details of life, different stories, and experiences that makes our life unique from the rest of the people.
At first, I had a hard time trying to find an older person to interview, because I did not want to interview my family since I’ve lived with them my whole life. While I was getting ready to interview my friend’s parent, I started reading the questions to myself, and I realized that I do not know the answer to them if I ask my parents. I chose to interview my mother because I have never sat down with her and have a serious deep conversation with her. I realized that I am closer to her than my father, but I’m not as close as I thought I was with her, and it broke my heart when I finally realized that. At the age she is, I finally realized that I have been taking advantage of her and I refused to live this way with her. This interview was emotional for both of us, and it also brought us closer to each other. I am so grateful and happy I did this interview with her.
An interview is a meeting and a conversation that happens between a potential candidate for a job position in a company and an interviewer, for the main purpose of the interviewer collecting information about the interviewee - such as their job experiences, qualities, and skills - to determine the eligibility of the interviewee’s capability to take that position in that company.
At the time of interview give a brief introduction of yourself as well as company, give time for answering questions and after interview summarize the things.
Although I am only sixteen years old and in the eleventh grade of high school, many things have influenced me and caused me to be the person that I am today. I hope that these things will continue to help me be a better person and influence me as my life continues. Some of the things that have influenced me have been church, my family, my friends, and school.
...th the patient I kept thinking that if this were my mother how would I want the nurse to treat her. I tried to behave in the way I would expect a nurse to treat me. I had preconceived notions before meeting the patient and they were all laid to rest almost immediately, honestly I was nervous. But once I started it began to feel comfortable and the interview just flowed naturally.
Throughout life we tend to run into numerous challenges along with changes, my challenges were keeping a decent grade as well as being active with a sport I loved. Also overcoming the fear of a certain hurdle and worrying about not make it to the finals. Although I’ve faced and overcome that particular fear, as the years passed, currently still face some challenges. I did not become the person I am today overnight, there were some challenges I’ve faced and changes I’ve made to become who I am today.
There have been tons of things that I have learned and been taught in my life, by a number of people such as family, teachers, or even friends on occasion. The things they taught me vary from math and other related subjects to just some truly simple yet meaningful life lessons. However, there is nothing quite as unique, quite as special as a person teaching themselves a life lesson. It really is an amazing accomplishment for a person to teach themselves something. It is not quite as simple as another person teaching them something because it is not just the transferring of information from one person to another. The person instead has to start from scratch and process the information they have in their mind in order to come up with a new thought
I have a very fulfilling feeling about what I have been able to accomplish in my life so far. I want the absolute best for myself and those close to me. I often go above and beyond to help those around me succeed and be the best version of themselves that they can possibly be.
My life has been the result of many situations that have shaped it; however, it was not until recently when I realized just how well I have it. It took one impactful life experience in order for me to recognize that my life, compared to how others must live their lives, has many more opportunities. Once I realized my great circumstance, it was like a switch went off in my head. I had to take action and make the most of my life by looking at life in a different way.
