It was Averyās second birthday this week! And she took over the whole week with her celebrations. So we will go through those, and also show a few of my days at work as a Family Nurse Practitioner! This week we will be discussing how to help patients describe their symptoms when they are poor historians, and providers roles in healthcare as guides, not necessarily decision makers.Ā

AVERY’S BIRTH STORY
A complicated first year. Prolonged hospitalization, feeding difficulties, lots of PT/OT, Colic, Breastfeeding issues, Exclusively pumping, Postpartum Depression, Failure to thrive, and Nurse Practitioner school were what marked Miss Averyās first year of life. It was a bit of a doozy. In todayās video I go over her birth story and discuss the first year of her life and some of the complications that it entailed. She is doing SO well now and is a happy little lady. Having a baby in NP school was no joke. But we made it, and you can too!
