Neurology rotation

Neurology week!

Neurology week I saw a lot of patients who had recently had strokes. I mostly saw patients for dysphagia diet educations or heart healthy educations. I also had a few patients who were NPO for an extended period of time (not allow to eat).

During this week I had some follow up patients that the RD's had previously seen. I also saw a lot of patients with new PEG tubes (which meant doing tube feeding nutrition recommendations).

The week was extremely busy for me. After I finished the neurology floor patients, I then helped the RD's see their patients if it was someone who they thought I could handle or a floor I had already been on.
