I’m glad I found this video. I have health assessment check off today, worth 50 points. This video covered everything we had to learn. It’s super short and very helpful. I sent this video to a few of my classmates ❤.
I wish my programs head to toe was this short. We have to do cranial nerves, ROM x3 per joint/extremity, strength, Romberg, gait, reflexes, Babinski, check all pulses, listen in 20 spots for breath sounds, and inspect, palpate, auscultate, percuss each system as applicable. It takes 20-30 minutes. I think this one is way more realistic on how we will perform them as a nurse.
Wow! That is an extensive head to toe assessment. I have never seen a nurse do all of that in my clinical rotations. But, I’ve been told by multiple nurses that nursing school is extremely different from actual clinical practice.
This video STATS are wrong. Her video should be viewed over a million times. Cause i know alone ive watched it about 200,000 times lol. Amazing job you are truly helping me through school.
Ty for this. I started my first of 5 semesters of nursing school and trying to get "the big picture" of what we are supposed to be learning. Our professors aren't explaining anything and just threw us to the sharks. I will use this as a guide. Great job!
I was literally struggling because my Clinical Instructor said that we have to do a return demo about cephalocaudal assessment for 10-15 mins only. I was in panic until I saw this. It's a very great help, thank you so much!
@@lisabrum4000 I’m in my second semester at the moment. This looks like it was your first or second semester? What was nursing school like in spring and fall 2020?
i wish the head to toe assessment for the program i'm in was this simple. I have to do all of the cranial nerves, do the range of motion for all joints, snellen chart, babinski, rhomburg, stereogenosis, graphesthesia, state word for word 7+ things we're looking for while examining each body part, etc in less than 30 minutes. So many people have failed bc they ask us to do so much in so little time. Even when the professor was doing the demonstration she wasn't able to do it all in 30 minutes and she forgot a lot of stuff 😭
Level 3 we get watched in clinical with a patient over our head to toe and I never knew if I was doing it right. This is really going to help ! Thank you!
Great job. I would also ask my patient when the had their last bowel movement, and also ask them if they had been urinating and having a burning sensation while urinating. You can also assess their mood and affect. Anyway, great job. Thanks
Thank you for this video. Best one I've seen on here so far. Lab test outs are in a few weeks and the physical assessment is something I'm confident about
Missed a step on the abdominal assessment and did not assess the client’s gait at the end. I Remember our school had us do this in 7 minutes. Love how relaxed this feels. Btw I’m a nurse now heading for my first day on the job and thought to see some videos as a refresher. You did great. Excellent overall.
Thanks so much! Yes for this assignment our instructor told us we did not need to "percuss" the abdomen. But in real life def need to inspect, auscultate, percuss and palpate!
@@lisabrum4000 Hi Lisa! Thank you for the excellent head-to-toe assessment! I loved how systematic it was. I also loved how calm and confident you were. I find it so difficult as a student to present myself with confidence... I am in a nursing program in Canada right now and our instructor asked us not to percuss as well! One thing that my school did different is that we need to check cap refill for the toes too. Other than that our head-to-toe check off is really, really similar!
I’m at Chamberlain at the Chicago campus! I wish this video was here when I was in Funds (from a student point of view) Excited to follow your journey, fellow friend! 🥰
Professor Parducci!! Thank you so much, I learned from the best (: miss you and hope all is well! I work on a cardiac/ stroke unit now and LOVE IT! Do head to toes, neuro checks and NIHSS assessments daily(:
@@lisabrum4000 I am SO PROUD of you! You are making a difference in so many peoples lives, amazing. Every session I show the students your assessment. We discuss your professionalism, how kind and capable you are. The students practice to , "Be like Lisa!" Wishing you well! Cindy
Was so much more helpful to watch this versus the ones we have to watch for the school haha! Doesn't feel as scripted and just made it easier to follow along!
This was my first time watching ur videos I will definitely come to watched this. How long does it take for someone to be like that, u sounded so professional. I want to sound like that as well.
Thank you so, I started Clinicals this semester so im watching your videos again and taken notes. I like the way you do it nice and easy and precise. Needs a little be more of practice to have the confidence. But for the most part I know it😊
@@drei000 when listening to breath sounds i watch the symmetry of the rise and fall of the chest, along with if there are any signs of labored breathing. For example: RR, nasal flaring or retractions!
@@lisabrum4000 Right now we are working on wound care and nasogastric tubes. I'm struggling with patient bathing in clinicals as well. I'd love to see your take on that stuff.
When is this done in everyday situations? In Germany we don’t learn anything like this. If the nurse does the assessment what does the physician do? Does he redo it, or just accept what the nurse said and do the diagnosis according to her findings?
cap refill is checking perfusion to the distal extremities, so pinch the finger tip until it blanches and when you release, count the seconds until the blood flow (color) returns to the area (:
I have a quick question. if you need to do a physical check up for a job, does your doctor check your “private” part as part of the physical check up for the job or only if they have your consent?
Nervous as heck for medsurg clinical next semester. I have been doing virtual clinical since the beginning of school and I know once I arrive at the unit 1st day everything that I have learned will go right out the window. Just watching this as a refresher. I have NO idea what to expect, just thinking about going makes me want to vomit.
You;ll do great! I was super nervous doing this for class too! Just something that helped me was lots of practice at home, borrow a friend or family member! (even a stuffed animal)lol. I start at the head and work down thinking what i would assess for each body part. You got this! Be confident
I am honestly concerned about the doctor my family sees. My last visit was two days ago. I had mentioned some concerns regarding cardiac function and he literally just referred me to a cardiologist. He has never once actually pulled out stethoscope and listened to anything himself. In fact, I’ve been seeing him for almost 10 years now and he has never once actually examined me. Anything I bring up that is concerning, he passes along a referral. What’s the point of having a primary care physician if he’s just going to refer me to other doctors and not even look at me himself…? Is that normal? Should I be looking into a different doctor or is it my fault for not advocating for myself and what I’m concerned about?
It's normal to refer you to a specialist. The doctor should be listening to your heart and lungs but they don't specialize in any of the organs in depth. Primary care physicians pretty much just prescribe medications for symptoms and send you off to a specialist. This video is for nurses. This is what we are learning in nursing school. Typically this type of exam will be used in long care facilities not at a PCP office. My nursing teacher said you wouldn't actually go this in depth because most of it you can tell by looking and talking with the patient.
Thank you! I made this in nursing school for my health assessment class as well (: I auscultated her carotid for any bruit, my program had it on our checklist. It's a certain sound which can indicate stenosis in the artery.
Hi! This was for health assessment class so i was a junior here i believe?! It was one of the first core nursing classes bc we had to learn HTT before going to clinical!
I am starting my first RN job tomorrow. I watched your video as a refresher. Great job!
How is it so far?
I started 2 months ago . I don’t know if I’m coming or going 😩😩
@@jessirey4 a great deal of hard work but I love it!

im not going to be forced into getting a lame physical against my will im out
I willll do mines tomorrow
I would of thought you were the instructor, did a great job! this really helped thanks!
You did an amazing job. I saved this video to refer back to later and watch again before clinicals. This has helped me very much.
The best head to toe assessment on UA-cam for LVN and RN students.
Great job! ❤

Same here! Head to toe assessment for my program is required to last a minimum of 45 minutes and is far more extensive. It’s terrible
Exactly
Damn thise cranial nerves 😭
@@chicknbacnranch5378 best way to learn them is just to practice your assessment. Write it out and read it over and over.
