NURS 153 Self/Teacher Evaluation
Summary (Please indicate learning outcome #s that you are addressing):
Learning Outcome #s_____3, 4, 5, 10____

Volunteering at the Markham Food Bank has been such a great experience. I have learned
to respect and treat everyone the same, regardless of their ethnicity. I was able to help
people in a non- judgmental and non- discriminatory manner. I have been able to interact
with a diversity of people and to better understand their needs according to their situation. I
feel happy to know that there are services in the community for those in need. The food
bank is a great help for people to supplement their grocery list for the month. What I like the
most is that anybody who comes in to the food bank is eligible for help as long as they live
in the city of Markham.
By completing the weekly readings, I have been able to learn about the role of nurses in the
community. I have been able to recognize that there are many cultures in the community
and that we nurses need to able to respect and accommodate the clients needs according
to their culture.
Completing the reflective practice assignment, has helped me better understand the
determinants of health and how people were affected by them. I was also able to do
research and get to know about other useful services in the community. I now know that
there are many services out there to help people in the community.
