Your analysis of the movie, Wit, should include a descriptive analysis of one is

Your analysis of the movie, Wit, should include a descriptive analysis of one issue related to the
healthcare team that you identified in the movie as important to the care of the patient. There are
a few issues, so this is not a matter of identifying the only correct issue. You should also reflect
upon the movie, express and possibly relate it to personal and/or professional experiences.
(Writing about personal experiences is acceptable but not required.) Your analysis and reflection
should show that you have seen the movie; your writing should not be superficial (express your
opinions, avoid vague generalizations, be specific with examples).
References are not needed for this reflection paper.
The assignment will be graded according to the rubric below.
The following questions may help you with your analysis or reflection. You do NOT need to
answer these questions.
(1) How does this film portray the relationships between the patient and her health care
providers?
(2) How does the film portray the health care providers?
(3) What role does nursing play in the patient’s care.
(4) Consider the nurse’s advocacy role, and her teaching role. Is there any place that she could
have done a better job in taking care of the patient. Any room for improvement in her delivery to
care to this patient? (Do not criticize the technical care, remember artistic license.)
(5) What is important to this patient? What was troubling to this patient regarding her care? What
is important in nursing education on any level in order for our nursing force to deliver patient
centered care?
(6) How do we deliver patient centered care?
How could we change our practice to address these deficiencies in health care? Is it reasonable to
expect that we could address the patient as a person, and still have time to take care of our
patients? How do nurses get to know patients?
(7) What will your nursing practice resemble?
8) How has recent changes in our profession driven the possibility of expanding our approach to
health care in the clinical setting?
9). Would any of the practice short comings in “WIT” happen today in our local hospitals?
10) Did you recognize any health care provider from this Movie in roles that you recently
experienced in your Preceptorship?
You can also discuss the movie from your own distinctive perspective, the above are only points
you might consider.
