Monday, November 16, 2009 at 10:12AM Neurological Assessment for Nurses
The Nursing Show
Complete assessment of neurological function requires the evaluation of motor function, nerve response, reflexes, mental status and sensation. It requires more time than the usual routine physical assessment so it is important that nurses go through with it in an organized step by step approach to save time without sacrificing a thorough neurological assessment. In this episode of the Nursing Show, the podmedic features a review on neurological evaluation as well as the things to look for in doing the procedure. Also in the show are nursing news and links to this week's tip for future review or reference.
