FozzyG Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I passed all my stuff for NR Paramedic except Oral station B. Is their any advice that anyone can give to me. My test is second week of September and I want to make sure I nail it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireMedic65 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Pay close attention to detail of what they are telling you. More than likely you missed a small bit of information and gave a med you shouldn't have or didn't go to the right hospital destination. The oral stations are very cut and dry. Detail is very important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chbare Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Unfortunately, the oral stations and cardiology (static & dynamic) tend to give our students the hardest time. Since the registry is highly regimented and inflexible, your best bet is to take a copy of the oral skill sheet and run you through scenario after scenario. Clearly, this will take a large amount of time. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arctickat Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Oh, when I opened the thread I thought it was gonna be a discussion about toothbrushes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DwayneEMTP Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Man, I didn't know that the stations had letter designations...which one is 'B?' And, as chbare said....that's really the best answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chbare Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 They are all different; however, you must do two stations. A and B are simply the terms registry used to designate one station from another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a large number of my patients could use some instruction on how to brush their teeth tooth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scubanurse Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Funny enough... one of the first things we learned skill wise in nursing foundations was oral care and brushing eachothers teeth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scratrat Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Hey Fozzy, where are you going to be testing at? Philly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medicgirl05 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I also had a problem with the oral stations. The first advice I would give is to right down the info they give you and continue to refer to it. Scene safety is a big thing that you need to address. It was hard for me to treat without being able to see a patient. Lots of scenario practice helped me. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
