I will reflect on how my knowledge, skills and understanding of how mental wellbeing: Working Inter-Professional to Improve Mental Well Being Assignment, QUB, Ireland

Introduction

In this assignment I will reflect on how my knowledge, skills and understanding of how mental wellbeing has improved over the course of this module: working inter- professionally to improve mental wellbeing. I will describe my nursing of a patient while on placement, assessing their condition and addressing their needs to promote their mental wellbeing.

Having undertaken this module I feel that my knowledge and skill set have improved, giving me a greater understanding of the differences between mental wellbeing, mental health, mental illness, and their inter-relationship, by researching information about mental wellbeing and how it affects people’s physical and mental health. According to the World Health Organisation, mental health is a state of well-being in which individuals can reach their potential and can cope with the everyday stress of life, work productively and fruitfully, and make a contribution to their community.

Prior to undertaking this module my knowledge on mental wellbeing was somewhat limited. I realise that I had actually performed some of these tasks without knowing they were related to mental wellbeing. I have learnt how the different models of mental health have changed over the years due to advances in knowledge and evidence-based research about mental health and mental wellbeing.
