    jennifer7010 replied to bennettsmith's topic in General Students

  14. Does this sound like a typical Clinical experience?

    jennifer7010 replied to anon695's topic in General Students

    Maybe ask the patient when they normally bathe. Maybe he is the type that likes to do his hygiene at night and that is his routine. So doing the bed bath may have been more of an inconvience than help...

    jennifer7010 replied to tiffjh2's topic in Pre-Nursing Students
