My first diabetic patient!

Today I had a really nice patient come in!  She is diabetic so it was a different experience having to write down all her meds and writing everything in the tx record.  Since it was my first time I was unsure of what to write in the tx record but I got it all figured out.  It took a while to get everything started because she didn't eat breakfast and didn't check her blood sugar so we had to test her to make sure that she was ok and not low.  It was a good experience.  I was able to get one quad done on her.  I am going to make a goal that I try to get in at least two quads in.  To accomplish that I need to make sure I am on top of it and always keeping on task and not getting behind and make sure things run smoothly.  I feel that I am becoming more confident in seeing patients.  There are a few things that I know I can improve on but it will come with time!  Today was a good clinic day and I enjoyed my patient.  It was a good experience seeing a complete stranger not knowing what to expect because it made it a little more challenging!
