Daytonite is an inspirational and invaluable person who will definetly be missed. To me although not having had the opportunity to meet her, her words of encouragement and her willingness to help out nursing students such as myself will and always will be appreciated. You will forever be in my heart!!

What to do when a patient falls
Hey guys was just wondering what would be the correct procedure when witnessing a patient fall and trying to help them . I would assume it would be to do a assessment FIRST on the patient and call for help before moving the patient. But that would be a guess any help would be great Thanks in advance

How to treat someone who is displaying signs of psychomotor retardation
Hey everyone just wondering if someone was admitted to a mental health unit due to depression and it is majorly affecting their physical health i.e moving very slowly, which is damaging to their physical health and seems to think of them selves as failures etc how would you be able to treat this person in regards to making them better physically and emotionally?
