So, I went up to the clinic yesterday to do some screenings in hope of finding a class 3 patient. My first patient who seemed promising didn't show up. Then my grandma came in (she is one of the most awesome women I know) and I was able to take a pano on her, which was wonderful. Then my last patient came in and there was some success there. Kelsey and I were both very stressed about getting a class 3 patient because that's all we have left to do, but then I found a "possible Class 3" patient in the screening folder. I asked Costley about it and she said that the lady is a class 3. So, after getting the ok from the senior who screened her she became my pateint. Wahoo! I called this person and she is suppposed to be coming in on Monday (after I volunteered to pay for half of her appointment). Double wahoo! In order to help Kelsey out I gave her one of the girls I screened.
I have to say I love all of the girls in my class. We all work together to help each other out, which I feel like it boosts team spirit and we're all able to accomplish more than we would if we were all only focused on ourselves. Go class of 2012!
I'm glad you got a Class III, even if it was in a round about way. Good job! (Sorry about the stinking people who don't show up.)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the one patient McCall! I feel bad that we can't see her sister this semester because she's not what we need. It feels weird to do that to someone.
