I'm curious how many patients you are assigned to care for each day in clinicals. I'm excluding senior leadership/preceptorship/etc. where you probably have the full patient load of your preceptor - what's the max number of patients you have in "regular" clinicals?

Next week I'll have 3 patients. :eek: Time to see if I really have my **** together. :rolleyes: :chuckle
