Glasgow Coma scale score is pretty high today 😂

2024/11/22 Edited to

... Read moreThe Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is a tool used by medical professionals to assess a patient's level of consciousness following a brain injury. A higher score on the GCS indicates better responsiveness and recovery potential. It's important to understand the three aspects of the scale: eye opening, verbal response, and motor response. Each component is rated from 1 to 6, contributing to a total score that helps guide treatment. While healthcare can be serious, patients often bring humor and unexpected moments, making the shifts lighter. Stories such as ‘When a coma patient decides to wake up on your shift’ resonate with healthcare providers and remind them of the human aspect of their roles. Sharing these experiences fosters community and awareness in physical therapy and healthcare discussions. Humor not only eases the tension in the healthcare environment but also encourages a supportive atmosphere for both staff and patients. Engaging with content involving #healthcare and #comedy can provide insights into the lighter side of a typically serious industry.

As a nurse, it is extremely important to know normal values and what to look for when those values are off. The heart and brain specifically do not like imbalances. One of my favorite books for nursing school was Fluid and Electrolytes made easy. #nursingschoolstudytips #Electrolytes
