The meaning and process of reflection and reflective practice appear to be currently accepted and institutionalized within the nursing profession. This paper, through use of a literature review, attempts to question the value that is consequently placed on this strategy and argues that on closer examination or universal reflection, has no clear or universal definition an uncertain framework for implementation, and is of unproven benefit to the professional practice of nurses. Given this evidence, the author concludes that reflection is a fundamentally flawed strategy that must be of must be of limited benefit to the nursing profession.
