I had an absolutely amazing time on prac - I experienced so many different things and learnt so much! I was involved in inpatients, outpatients and hydro - so I got to do a little bit of everything. I didn't have too much trouble remembering things - I carried around a notepad to help with this! I had to spend a lot of time at home revising and learning different topics.
Doing a presentation to the physios was a great learning experience. It required a lot of research but it was great to get their feedback as I am sure I will have to do presentations on my pracs next year.
I did have to write a lot of notes and I had to practice to get it right and include the right info in the right order. I can now write proper notes and am confident in doing so. To start with I made notes on the order of info, but by the end of prac I was writing it off the top of my head. It was also hard as I swapped between the medical and ortho wards and the note writing was slightly different.
I did a lot of work with inpatients, particularly post-op and put my cardio knowledge to good use! I really enjoyed working on the ward and learnt the management for medical conditions and post-op patients.
