""This detailed, practical guide to reflective practice has
relevance to all healthcare practitioners. Taylor offers readers
her REFLECT model to guide them through the process of
reflection... Throughout she uses a wide variety of techniques to
explain and illustrate what to expect and how to adapt and
accommodate to different circumstances and preferences... This book
has such depth and detail and yet at the same time is practical and
written in plain language. There is literally something for
everyone..."
Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy, April 2011 78(2)
"Taylor reveals how reflection and contemplation creatively
welds the everyday working day world to a myriad of cultural,
ethical, moral and managerial challenges. This book offers the
beginning practitioner a broad understanding of why conscious
awareness of one's thinking matters. Taylor's insight reveals her
deep thoughtfulness as a meticulous researcher, supervisor and
mentor and her guidelines will ground you in shaping your own
development as a researcher in practice."
Dr Margaret Martin, Victoria University of Wellington, New
Zealand
"Reflection, as a process of critical self-evaluation, continues
to grow and be recognised as a successful, approach to improving,
changing and managing healthcare practice. This latest text by
Taylor is a welcome addition to the increasing body of knowledge on
the subject. She writes, as always, with exceptional clarity and
manages to combine practical guidance with experiential insights
and theoretical frameworks. Highlighting the importance of ordinary
human communication for all healthcare professionals, Taylor's text
and presence is anything but ordinary."
Professor Dawn Freshwater, University of Leeds, UK
"This book is about more than reflection, it is about a
philosophy of nursing that Taylor has espoused throughout her
career, and it makes a connection with the reader in a way that
many books do not.This is a must-have book for all who wish to move
their practice forwards."
Joanne Pike, Senior Lecturer, NEWI, North Wales"
This popular book provides practical guidance for healthcare
professionals wishing to reflect on their work and improve the way
they undertake clinical procedures, interact with other people at
work and deal with power issues. The new edition has been broadened
in focus from nurses and midwives exclusively, to include all
healthcare professionals.
Practice stories by a variety of healthcare professionals are
interweaved throughout the book to illustrate reflective practice
and 'author's reflections' boxes are used to illustrate the
author's experience of reflective practice.
The book contains a clear and comprehensive description of: The
fundamentals of reflective practice and how and why it is embraced
in healthcare professions Strategies for effective reflection
Systematic approaches to technical, practical and emancipatory
reflection A step-by-step guide to applying the Taylor REFLECT
model
This edition also introduces the concept of 'ordinariness' in
health care, which used consciously with the reflective practice
processes in this book should increase the likelihood that patients
receiving healthcare will feel acknowledged, heard and comforted as
intelligent human beings.
