Critical Criteria

[Sizz]

Hey Medics,

What is the Critical Criteria failure for the oral station during practicals or can anyone provide a link for the actual material?

Thanks

I hated the oral stations the most. When I did my practical Oral B was the one station I had failed but was luckily able to retest it that day and passed it. Thinking back over the scenario I think I failed because I had a patient with a syncopal episode that fell and I forgot to say that I would backboard the patient.

Just be as methodical as you can and use the piece of paper provided to write down your information. The evaluator will allow you to setup your piece of paper before your time starts. Take advantage of this and take your time. Visualize the scenario from start to finish.
