P>This is Sarah, a registered nurse, and in this video, I want to be discussing a nursing head-to-toe assessment. This video will be similar to what you have learned in nursing school, particularly during your clinical check off.

The reason for auscultation after inspection is because palpation and percussion can alter bowel sounds. So, we want to establish a baseline by auscultating first, then proceed with percussion and palpation. First, you need to practice hand hygiene and ensure the patient's privacy. Introduce yourself to the patient and explain what you will be doing. For example, "Hello, my name is Sarah, and I will be your nurse today. I need to a head-to-toe assessment. Is that okay with you?" If the patient agrees, you can proceed. During the assessment, it is important to check the patient's arm bands. This will help ensure that you have the right patient. You can also use this opportunity to assess the patient's neuro status by asking them questions about their identity, such as their first and last name, date of birth, and where they are currently located. Additionally, you can ask them questions about the purpose of their visit and current events,...
