HEENT evaluation...oops that shouldn't be THERE!!

Published

During my Fundamentals of Nursing re-demo of a HEENT eval today, I made a slight goof. My professor later told me she had to hold back her choking and giggles.

While examining my "patient's" open mouth with a tongue depressor, I told her the VULVA looked good. Really? A vulva in the mouth? No, I meant uvula!! OMG, I said vulva? This should make quite the funny topic at the next faculty lunch! At least I didn't forget anything....

I had a classmate misspeak in our clinical setting too. The instructor did make a funny comment and laughed. It was really funny,
