Hectic Week before Christmas!
This week, I did my normal routine at AFC Urgent Care. What my normal week consists of is taking patient vitals which include blood pressure, temperature, pulse, oxygen level, and lastly height and weight. This week I worked with Amanda, V, Sabrina and. I have been watching the staff run strep tests, urinalysis, and drug screens. During this hectic week I had time to sit down and get some one-on-one time with the nurses and get some hands on learning experience. While working with a patient I would introduce myself like this: Hi, my name is Adriana. I'm the intern here. Do you mind if I stay in the room? Once I get their consent I stay and let the nurses get the information they need. Then I take their blood pressure, oxygen levels, pulse, and lastly their height and weight.
