Learning H&P - Ugh!

  • Guides

I am taking "physical exam" this term, which includes taking a history and performing a physical. UGH! It's so different to nursing assessment, and I hate feeling like such a beginner! It's just not instinctive at all. How did you get good at it? Does it ever get easier/more logical? I hate the way my instructors make us break the exam into inspection/auscultation/palpation/percussion - it seems so much harder than just doing it all head to toe.

Any hints/tips/encouragement??
