365 Blog-Day 42

We learned about bowel and bladder incontinence at school today in our lab. We wore adult protective garments to get an idea of what it is like to have to wear them for long periods of time. We were challenged to get to the restroom in under 10 seconds using a walker. No one made it in time. I made it to the toilet, but forgot to lift the seat. It was a good lesson in empathy for the patients we will work with in the future. We also learned how to get up from falling.
