FINAL ENTRY

I really really enjoyed this placement!.
In my initial entry i was really worried and stressed about the responsibility of having my own patients, however this was a really big learning experience for me, we wern't just thrown into the deep end but they slowley eased us into having our own patients.

I also said in the initial entry that i was apprehensive about this being a neuro placement. Although we did see some neuro patients, we were always accompanied with a supervisor, so this wasn't as stressfull as i thought it would be. All my single patients were gerentology based.

I found each day i went to this placement i learnt so many new things. we contributed to team meatings, we discharged patients, we referred patients on. We saw a complete variety of patients aswell ranging from THR, to occipital strokes, temporal strokes, COPD patients, neurological compramise patients... the list was really broad. At times i was really stressed about my case load and often left late however i felt as though i was learning so much. i liked this placement alot better than my last!.
