- Preah Kosomak Hospital Reflective Journal
The purpose of reflection is to encourage the students to critically look back on their practices and clinical encounters to
learn from their experiences and actions. It can be an encounter with a person (eg. patient, doctor, nurse, or family
member/caregiver) or reflection on a treatment technique/choice or something they experience in the clinic. There is no
right or wrong reflection but what matters to the student.
