Hi, I posted a week or so ago about failing my bp check off and you guys had so many encouraging things to say. I really appreciated it! Well I went this morning for my 2nd attempt and passed! We have to do two correctly out of three and I got the first two right! I was so excited I hugged the instructor, lol ! Anyways, I just wanted to update. Thursday is my med check off so I am hoping that goes well too!

That's great!!!!!!
I agree with the poster who said never get dependent on machines!!! I don't trust them and always prefer to take my own :)
The more you practice the better you'll get!

Congrats! I didn't have any trouble with this in CNA but some of my classmates really had a hard time and I could totally understand their anxiety. To make matters worse, we probably had the worst stethoscopes on the face of the earth!
