Practice makes perfect

The clinic is about exposing us to patients so we can meet, see, and interact with them. Javier is our teacher, he is great about letting us practice and learn from doing and feeling ourselves. Just the other day Javier walked in with four syringes, and I said "what are those for," and he said "you all," I was like ok. It was time for us to learn how to draw blood, on one another of course. I really appreciate the way Javier teaches us. He often asks us what do you think, like the other day before clinic started he asked us to tell him what was wrong with people at the clinic just by visualy observing them from a distance. I feel like I have learned several practical things this summer that will help me tremendously.
