SPA rotation / RRMC

Mon. - I attended clinical at SPA. I had a lot of fun during this rotation. It was nice to have healthy patients for a change. All of the patients that I saw that day were just there for routine check-ups.

Thurs. - I had a 57 yo divorced white female on 1E. She was admitted for a fractured R. humerus, but had quite an extensive medical history. Aside from her numerous physical ailments, she also suffered from panic disorder and was bipolar. She really touched my heart and I wish that I had more time with her. I was able to do my psychosocial assessment on her which indicated that she has really low self-esteem...not to mention that she would barely make eye contact.
