Exemplar 1: NR500 Week 3 Addressing Bias PaperWrite the Name of the Piece of
Work
Copy the exemplar here. Although experiences can shape our development of a
bias mindset; it can be challenging to not permit these biases to affect how we interact
and care for patients. By analyzing and reaffirming our personal biases during the week 3
paper assignment I was able to be better prepared to be a leader with integrity and self-
awareness to provide optimal care to all patients. Self-awareness is a process of objective
examination of oneself and is one of the important components in nurse-client
relationship. Addressing bias is an important step in creating self-awareness. Although
experiences can shape our development of a bias mindset; it can be challenging to not
permit these bias thoughts to affect how we interact and care for patients.

TThis attribute reflects the cognitive exploration of own thoughts, feelings,
beliefs, values, behaviors, allows one to understand nd how they can affect others
(Rasheed, 2015). Therefore, it is critical that if any negative attitudes toward any patient
strategies must be developed toand utilize to eliminate them. This paper also allowed me
to develop such strategies to use to ensure I am not being bias towards any patient. For
example, at the end of each day on the drive home I self-reflect on the care I provided my
values, behaviors, feelings, and thoughts of how I would feel if I was the patient so that I
could provide better care the following day.
This paper also allowed me to reflect on unconscious stereotyping and prejudice
contribute to healthcare disparities to advocate for fairness and the elimination of such
negative behavior and mindsets. According to Philip, Chadee, and Yearwood (2014),
study found that in Trinidad and Tobago discrimination is still present especially against
people diagnosed with HIV/AIDS and at-risk groups. This negative attitude therefore
creates barriers to accessing important testing and treatment services. Another study
sought the view from nurses of what it means to provide care to the obese. Marques, De
Melo, and Dos Santos (2014), study also found several bias and negative attitudes toward
obese patient that included: being obese is excessive, it is not healthy; Providing care to
the obese is a structural issue; Obese patients are troublesome, they require care, no big
deal; Providing care to the obese requires teamwork. These negative views can interfere
in the care provided and vital to eliminate as advanced practice nurses.
This reflective paper also allowed me to understand, value cultural differences,
and the importance of cultural competence. As we move to increasingly diverse society;
the U.S. Census Bureau projects that the United States will be a majority-minority nation
