Ok so for some I am having issues with the neuro assessment. I haven't been able to get down a system for making sure everything is covered. Does anyone have any ideas. Or how did you get this down..We are also having Eye and Ear assessments on our neuro test which don't seem to bad. Anyhow any help would be great.

assessment information is on this sticky thread:
suggest you look at the assessment information on the medical school sites unless you have a password to get into lwws "the point" links that vickyrn has posted on there. if i remember, i posted a video of a neuro exam from harvard medical school a few weeks ago on there.
i downloaded, copied and saved "the practical guide to clinical medicine" from ucsd medical school (http://meded.ucsd.edu/clinicalmed/introduction.htm) onto my computer. it's like a mini textbook. it has several webpages for the neuro exam because it covers spinal and cranial nerves and includes pictures. eye is covered in a separate section and ear is covered with the exam of the head and neck.
