  • Title: Using case reports to aid reflective practice in wound care.
    Author: Timmons J.
    Journal: Br J Community Nurs; 2006 Mar; 11(3):S14, S16, S18, S20. PubMed ID: 16607237.
    Abstract:
    Reflection is a widely-used tool in education and practice for giving individuals insight into events and incidents. Case reports, though lacking in rigour as a source of evidence, also provide an opportunity to reflect on and examine practice. They therefore provide a useful opportunity of examining practice in wound care, which is lacking in many nursing curricula. A case report is given here to illustrate some of the lessons that can be learned by reflection--even by an experienced nurse.
