EQ:What are the most important steps one must follow when caring for a patient?

• The given nurse must ensure to provide clear and concise holistic healthcare to the client.
• The nurse  on duty must ensure that she is following the code of ethics correctly.

3.  What is the most important source you have used that has helped you come up with an answer to your working EQ?

The most important source that I have been using is my Nursing Fundamentals Textbook which was written by Caroline Bunker Rosdahl and Mary T. Kowalski and published in 2008.

4.  Who is your mentor, or where are you doing mentorship, and how does what you are doing relate to your working EQ?

My mentor is Silvia Davila who is a teacher at Hacienda La Puente Adult School for Psychiatric Technicians, and she is also a nurse at BHC in Alhambra. My mentorship consists of another class outside of school. I am learning and studying the same curriculum as the current students in her class. This greatly relates to my working EQ because as a Psych Tech you are responsible for the patients' care as well as the patients safety. Due to the fact that these are the main focuses of a psych tech they have also become the main focus to my working essential question.
