Discussion Post: Physical Assessment
You completed your full head-to-toe assessment skills demonstration and now will document your results. Continue to document only the objective findings for this section without bias or explanation. Remember if you can't feel something then it is "nonpalpable," if you can't hear something just state they were not heard such as no bowel sounds heard (unless you listened for the full five minutes which we wouldn't want to do for our purposes - then you could document absent bowel sounds). Be descriptive if necessary but at the same time be brief.
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
