No fear! I got a 95 on my first Lab test then a 73 (failing at my school) on my first theory class test! I truly believe that I am meant to be here and I will keep on working on it. Don't give up! I think we all have to get used to the difference in the classes compared to our pre and co reqs. Its so much different. I was a 4.0 student until now! haha...I hope we can all keep one another encouraged and such. Anyone done DARs yet? Could anyone tell me if this looks right? Hi there, I am hoping someone can tell me if this looks right for a DAR. I'm in my first semester of nursing and I'm so confused and I have to do my first skin/respiratory assessment and DAR with nursing diagnosis write up and have no idea if it's close to right. We have to make up our own each assessment, skin and respiratory has to include a normal geriatric variation and a regular abnormal variation. Skin: D - "I broke my wrist when I feel down a flight of stairs." Hair: loss of pigment, oily. Blanching: WNL, wrinkles around oral cavity, eyes, acrochordons right, left arms, hands, letigines right, left hand, skin: dry, petichiae right/left ankle, reduced tugor, edema 2, casted wrist dry, warm A - Educate client about using emolient for dry skin, hydration, hair care for oiliness, sunscreen R - Continue to monitor casted wrist, monitor input/output, continue to monitor vitals
