In this initial entry into your Nurse E-Portfolio for this course, you have opportunities for reflective practice. In this entry you will focus on your understanding and awareness of nutrition. Using the e-portfolio format, answer the following questions. Make sure you spend some time thinking about the answers to these questions before writing.
1. Think about your own nutrition and diet. If you were asked to give yourself a rating from 1 to 5, with 5 representing the most “healthy eater,” what number would you give yourself?
2. If your rating was 4 -5, what are you eating and doing with regard to your nutrition that reflects this rating? What do/can you do to ensure you will continue to do these things even if you have limited time or are stressed?
3. If your rating was 3 or below, what two changes might you make in your eating patterns to improve your nutrition and diet?
