First Class II

My peer pal told me that my pt was a 1B but she end up being a class II. I was so happy. i was able to do three quadrants. I may of got her all done, but she had to go to the rest room about 4 times. Which was ok because I am still happy with how it went. I even missed a butch but Prof. Costley said it was because it was burnish calculus. I have never felt burnished calculus so it was a great experience.

First Exam

ok I need to take a step back and breathe. The x-rays sign up is a mess. People are signing up in the wrong room and switching rooms and not telling people when they are done. My goal was to do an exam, but I think that I should have waited b/c I got behind w/x-rays; I am stressed out b/c of the tests that we have this week, and the application. I need to always start on the lowers and air dry the lingual.

Dad

Today my dad is coming today and I am more nerves about him coming then a stranger. And I am also seeing a child.

Well it went ok. I signed up for a radiology room to take a pano but other people jumped ahead of me, which really got to me. b/c I had my father kept getting up so now I have learned to keep the pt sitting and make sure that the room is mine and ready. There were a few spots intra but Prof. Hansen said that they looked ok.
The kid was a great pt, but I felt rushed and was not sure what to do.
Goal is to do an exam

I am on a roll

I am so happy. I almost was not able to see my pt because he had high blood pressure. I was able to get my patient done in one appt. again. Hay!!! He was really easy and I did better on the time. And did better at the order of things to do. I need to remember to have a OD check before disclosing. I keep thinking that it is so much fun and that I need to have the green and blue sheet all filled out.

Ten Quad Done

Wow, Can I say wow again WOW! I think my blood pressure is sky high.
So today I saw a new pt that I have never met. She was my mom co-works daughter. She is pregnant and she bleed a lot and kept bleeding to the point that I can't see anything. That is what took me so long to get her done. But I did it!!! All in one appt. I am so so so proud of my self. But of course I made mistakes, I am not prefect. I totally forgot to have the OD check. I asked Jeff questions about it and he even helped me prob so I guess in my mind I had a OD check. My first goal is to have everything done in the right order and then my second goal is to be faster at it.

Cody

Made a few errors but not bad. I actually got him done. My goal to have time limits and to day I just did as much as I could. I need to get a pt that actually has some calculus and a health history.
