I think I did better this time – my dispensing assignment.

*does a little victory dance*

But as with all things, it can only get better!

Below is part of my conversation with a patient today:

“Hello, Mr Smith*! Here is your medicine. Are you expecting three items today from your doctor?”

“Oh yes, yes. He told me I have high blood pressure…something like 165/105…is that good?”

“Well, it would definitely be better if it was lower.”

“Really? I thought if I had a higher number it’d be better…like a score? The higher the better?”

“Oh no, unfortunately it doesn’t work that way.”

Trust me, it was REALLY difficult to keep a straight face because the patient was so animated when he told me his theory. :P

Thankfully, it was just Rory being a very “interesting” patient for me to practice on while doing assignment 4 today. :sidelook:

*So there was no Mr Smith.
