Hey,
I just finished step I on Thursday, and I have at least a month before I can start my clinical rotations (Caribbean schools and their scheduling, gotta love it lol).
Does anyone have any advice on what I should be doing with this time? I want to be as prepared for clinicals as possible so that I can take good care of patients and make a good impression.
My mom is a veterinarian and I asked her if she could teach me how to suture. She said that she could, but she is concerned that they might teach me a different method during my surgery rotation and I will actually be behind rather than ahead. I think I will try to learn anyway.
I've thought about getting first aid for step II and reading through it.
Does anyone have any other ideas or advice? Anything you wish you had done before being thrown into the hospitals and clinics?
