Nervous about final physical assessment...

[DroogieRN]

I don't know the purpose of this, other than to just let off a little steam -- I have my final demonstration in Basic Assessment on Friday morning. Our written final is not until 12/15, but for this, we signed up for times with our lab partners and when we get there, we'll draw two numbers (of 5) and do those assessments on our partners in front of the instructor. I've made notecards and studied them but am trying not to go overboard (otherwise, I get all bent out of shape). Plus, we have to demonstrate two teaching plans: a skin self-exam and either a BSE or TSE.

I have a 92 in this class so far, so I'm in little danger of failing, but this is a big portion of our grade. I can tell my family until I'm blue in the face how nervous I am (and I've examined them repeatedly to practice) but I know nursing students really understand.

Thanks for letting me ramble!:typing

With all of your practicing, probably it'll go well.

Just keep practising.
