To understand the wide range of problems they might face and that with every condition, there is an individual personality there with it.

Thanks to you both! Excellent material  Dr Tom you are so right ensuring students don't forget the patient under the problems/problem behaviors exhibited. Ninelives great topic for those on med surg units as well. I have seen it as well.
