Preparing to bathe their “patient,” junior Christine Wu is working on providing the best care for their future patients. Wong was trying to get a time of 20 minutes or less to finish a bed bath skill on the mannequin. “There are definitely skills I am better at, but I think for all of them you just need to practice,” Wu said. “I feel pretty good about the nursing exam. Ms. Trummel explains well why each skill is important and stresses why it’s important for the test and real life.”
