Title: End of Module 5/Beginning Module 6
Course: HEALTH ASSESSMENT 80FA20

Now that we have completed all of the systems, we will now focus on putting together the full head to toe exam. This week, you have an opportunity to submit your questions or concerns in completing the recording of the head to toe assessment in the weekly discussion board. Please post in this thread so that we may share frustrations, concerns and possible trouble shooting when completing the assessment. The Ethnogeriatric Case Study is due this week. You can review the discussion board from Module 4 for questions regarding the Ethnogeriatric Case Study paper. Your final Sherpath assignments are also due this week. You all have worked well in Sherpath this semester so let’s finish strong with completing these final assignments.

This week, you should be practicing for the video head-to-toe assessment of a mock patient. Please plan to submit a practice video submission so that we can hopefully eliminate any technical difficulties with submission this week instead of next week. In the practice video, you do not have to complete any type of assessment. I would let the video run for a few minutes and then try to submit. This will let me know if there is any issue with my opening your video. Sometimes the technical aspect of submitting it is the most frustrating part of the assignment.

You are almost there, keep up the great work! Let me know if you have any questions.
