You are required to gain consent from your interviewee prior to conducting the health interview. They need to be reassured that their identifying details will not be recorded in the interview notes and that their identity will remain anonymous. Once the interview is completed in as much detail as possible for each question, students are required to reflect on the use of their therapeutic communication skills during the interview; identify the factors that worked well and those that didn't work well. It is important that you begin to appreciate that a reflection is much more than simply a narration of what was done or not done, realising that the value of reflection is in identifying your strengths and weaknesses and improving your practice or knowledge. Description: Reflection is a process of reviewing an experience of practice in this case, interviewing, in order to describe, analyse, evaluate and to inform your learning. In this assessment you need to follow the Gibb's reflective cycle using the following headings; 1.Description. What happened? Give a concise, factual account (100 words). 2.Feelings. Outline and explore your thoughts and feelings at the time (100 words). 3.Evaluation. What worked well and what didn’t work in the situation? (100 words). 4.Analysis. Examine the experience in depth. Critical reflection begins with reconstructing the experience beyond the personal, to also examine the historical and social factors that structure a situation. Start to theorise the causes and consequences of your actions. Use references such as research (recent studies are best), policy documents (from relevant bodies) or theory (from academic sources) to support your analysis. At this point you might try to identify an overarching issue, or key aspect of the experience that affected it profoundly for example, “communication” or “time” (200 words). 5\
