1. describe 5 ways you can set the stage for effectively gathering patient information.

1. Ask if the patient takes any medicines, if they do, make sure they have the list of what they take.

2. If the patient is in pain ask for 1 to 10 how much pain are you in.

3. If the patient looks partly sick, ask whats been going on.

4. Ask the patients age.

5. ... The last one i don't know :/

10/10 recommend bring pads/tampons with you no matter what. im 16 & i’ve had mine since i was 12 and they’re still it regular, but id suggest using the glow app, many women use it for fertility reasons but i use mine specifically for the period tracking portion and it guesses when your next period will most likely be for the next two months. i dont believe theres any way to delay your period, so id say hope for the best but make sure to bring all of your stuff just incase. have a good cruise!
