It is vitally important, (you'll have to excuse that joke) that medical students can accurately record patient observations

In order to be able to assess a patient, you need to be able to comment on the critical status of those in your care which involves being able to accurately assess a patient's observations

All students must be able to rapidly, and effectively recorded patients, blood pressure, their pulse, their respiratory rate, and their temperature. All of this information must be clearly recorded on the patient's observations, or MEWS chart

Thank you for your videos. I study psychology, and I find your content very useful because we have quite a lot of biology and neurology during this year. And besides, those videos are super relaxing!

Hi Doctor Gill! I don’t often comment on many videos, but I would like to share with you that I thoroughly enjoy yours. They’re always so peaceful, professional, educational, and overall entertaining. Thank you so much for all you do. I hope you have an absolutely wonderful week!

Doictor Gill's Voice is so soothing that we get a medical lesson as well as an asmr session.

So relaxing to hear his voice even if a short video.

Good to see Megan's lovely smile.

I always have to chuckle in advance when they check my vitals before giving blood because I have deep veins so it usually takes a second for them to find mine to check my pulse as a result. I will say though that I thoroughly enjoy having my blood pressure records from all of my appointments because high blood pressure runs in my family but my readings have always been really good when giving blood except for more recently I’ve had a few that were high and the Red Cross actually sent me a letter alerting me to be cautious about them which was nice. They were related to work stress from certain people at work and not actually medical in cause and thankfully those people are no longer employed at my work but if it happens outside of that I’ll definitely look into it again.

It is important to check the vital indicators of our body regularly.

[donovanbradford]

Always enjoy these types of videos. Also hardest place I had to take someone's vitals was the high of a very busy freeway during a ride along if I learned how to do it visually I would have done that instead of trying for 5 minutes to get a BP.

Your videos remind me of my time as a medical student. 😊

[cripmeister]

and as always have a wonderful response to the finger you see wiggle

2:56 - 38 degrees is a normal value? I assume there are people who have a constantly higher temperature, but is that okay?
