8 mins read Mentoring, reflection and PDPs
This series has explored reflective practice as it relates to dental nursing. This final article examines how you can transfer your reflection skills from dental nursing to your everyday life. It also provides a summary of the previous five articles on reflection in this series

We might not practice it particularly well, but we do talk about reflective practice and acknowledge the importance of it. If you have been following this series, then hopefully you will have begun to appreciate how you can incorporate reflection into your daily dental nursing practice in a useful and meaningful way. But does reflection have to stop when you go home? If reflection on our nursing practice can help us review, develop and improve what we do at work, then why not apply those principles to other aspects of our lives outside of our professional working day?
