Olivia Jones's reflections Q
Opening questions
At first, this simulation made me nervous. I wanted to make sure I did everything I could to
assist Olivia and help her stop having those nauseas feeling because it was hard to watch. After
three attempts, I don't believe it was as bad as I had anticipated.
In all three of my run-throughs, the action that I felt went best was the head-to-toe assessment,
which I always scored well on.

reflexes, +3 pitting edema to lower extremities, and elevated blood pressure were all signs that

several systems that it may impact. Like your liver function and lungs.
