Becoming a Reflective Practitioner

'Christopher Johns is an internationally recognised pioneer of reflective practice in nursing and health care.’ – Nursing Standard

Becoming a Reflective Practitioner provides a unique insight into reflective practice, exploring the value of using models of reflection, with particular reference to Christopher Johns' own model for structured reflection. Now in its fifth edition, this book has been completely revised and updated to include up-to-date literature and reflective extracts.

Contemporary in approach, this definitive text contains a variety of rich and insightful reflective extracts that support the main issues being raised in each chapter, and challenges practitioners and students to question their own practice. Now with further scenarios and case studies included throughout, these extracts provide the reader with access to the experience of reflective representation helping to explicate the way in which reflective practice can inform the wider notion of professional practice.

With an increase in professional registration requiring reflective evidence, this new edition of Becoming a Reflective Practitioner is an essential guide to all those using reflection in everyday clinical practice.

CHRISTOPHER JOHNS is a visiting professor at Christ Church Canterbury and University of Bedfordshire. He is also convenor of the International Reflective Practice conferences and Reflective Gatherings.
