Week eleven was exciting. It came with emotional baggage. Knowing this was our last full week is depressing. I learned how to take a blood pressure while a patient is exercising. It is more faint and harder to do because of the person working out.Also, we worked in cardio therapy. Which is where we monitor peoples heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels. Working with these people was amazing they taught me so many things related to the heart. As for interviews I do not really understand how to interview so I think I would have many problems. One question that would trip me up is what are your strengths and weaknesses. I would respond by saying my weakness is being to passionate. I love pouring my heart into my work. As for my strengths I am always punctual, professional, and courteous. Plus, I would try to act in an appropriate manor and figure out what they want me to say.

Week ten I learned how to do a blood pressure while exercising. The Patients come to a therapy called cardiac rehabilitation. Here they perform activities to strengthen their heart after surgery. There is two different levels P2 and P3. P2 patient's are hooked up to a heart monitor that watches their heart waves. After you have to chart their activity and check their vitals. This job consists of multiple people helping to make the lives of patients better. There are lots of things that make me happy. So here is my list: running, watching Harry potter or Disney, helping others, getting good grades and working hard, mentoring, music, spending time alone, and writing. The most important thing to me is taking care of myself. I work hard to make sure I have plenty of opportunities. In my family no one ever makes it so I set out to change that by putting myself first. I do help others because I believe in order to help myself I need to help others. I know that sounds selfish but its just how I have to survive.
Obstetrics the subcategory of female health. Particularly dealing with the fetus and the delivery. I heard about a endometrium lining biopsy. I thought how can you biopsy the lining of your uterus. Well, actually it is not a long process. The doctor inserts a speculum and then uses swabs to scrape the lining. Once that is done the put it in a special fluid and it is sent to the lab. What I thought was weird was even though this woman was not pregnant they made her pee in a cup. I was told every patient has to every visit.
