Today was my check off for changing a Cental line dressing with Cardiac assessment and Male and Female Foley catheter insertion with Abdominal assessment.  I did fine on the two I did.  It was a coin flip to which I had to do.  I ended up with Female Foley Catheter instead of central line dressing. I also did the male catheter with another faculty member. Now I have

• NG Insertion, irrigation and removal
• Enterostomy/ Enema
• Enteral Tube feeding/Medication via feeding tube

left with the learning assistants to be done.  And I have left to do with Faculty:

• IV Spike, Prime, Time & Assessment (Initiating Intravenous Therapy) and Secondary Fluids (Medications by Intermittent Infusion Sets) (this coming week)
• Medication Administration – PO, Subcutaneous & IM Sites and Injections
• Client Assessment

Next week our first big exam, Our first big case study, our IPR, and our dosage exam is all due.  Gonna be a very long week!    So much to do this weekend and today!
