data sheet

Published

I have No clue how we make one.

I dont know how to fell this data sheet thingy up! Help!!!!

Duuu-uu-uude, it's like this? You apparently have a form that has blanks in it? You, like, fill in the blanks? With a pen?

It says something like, "Age, gender." You fill in the patient's age and gender?

"Diagnosis." That's the medical diagnosis? Write that in?

"Medications." List them, with doses and frequencies and why they are prescribed?

"Physical assessment." What did you observe when you ran through the physical assessment you learned in lab before you came to clinical? Vital signs, lung sounds, bowel sounds, pulses, skin, special senses, etc. ..?

"Treatments." What are ordered, how often, and what are they for?

And so forth? Fill in the freakin' blanks and you can't, like, go wrong?

Nobody's hating on you? Take this as an opportunity to get free feedback on your written skills at communicating what you need to ask? All of us can't be wrong in not understanding you? You're, like, lucky to have us, y'know?

:rolleyes:

Hahaha Grn Tea..... dude (sorry I had to). I'm sorry, but you're in clinicals providing patient care to real patients? Surely your clinical instructors went over this "data sheet" with you. It also sounds like it wouldn't be assigned to you if you hadn't already learned some of these skills: assessment, etc. Please reword your question telling us specifically what your dilemma is and we would be more than happy to provide assistance to you.

People Stop hating on me! Lol now I feel stupid. I just wanna see how It'sdone, you know?
I am sorry I am late to the game.......I have been sick again...:banghead: Not everyone is in the US, Not everyone is as fortunate as we are with our schooling and educational programs. I feel, We need to be as helpful as possible when someone is asking a question....you don't know what their situation is or where they live....or even if they have the advantages of their own text books.

OP.......What you need a good brain sheet.......here are a few. These have been made by me and other AN members (Daytonite,RIP, made the student sheets) use them and change them as you need.
