Clinical!

My first day of clinical was a success. I had a bit of apprehension when we first got there but today was pretty low key. Today we were paired up in two's but generally we will be on our own. We accompanied our patient to PT/OT which is where we spent most of our time but we did take the patient back to their room and got to practice/take Vital Signs (VS).

Overall I would say that it was a good experience and I can definitely tell that clinical is the way to gain the majority of the knowledge and to really put into practice what they are telling us.

Next week I will have a new patient and am supposed to work on VS, Respiratory sounds, AM activities and anything else I learn from now until then! Can't wait!!
