About Me
- undergrad RN
- I'm a twenty-something Canadian student. After stumbling through a few years of college, I finally managed to get into the nursing school of my dreams, where I hope to graduate in 2012 with a nursing baccalaureate degree. I want to offer an honest look into how a modern nurse is educated, both good and bad. Eventually I hope to compare my education to my day-to-day career and see how it holds up. Whatever happens, it should be somewhat entertaining. Find me on allnurses.com!

Hey, You! Spam Guy!
I (and every other blogger I know) have been getting a lot of email requests asking me advertise or repost things I do not care about or wish to endorse. I do not make any money off this blog - any endorsements I may make are strictly because I am personally pleased with the results.
I DO NOT and WILL NOT repost anything someone emails me. If I want to link to something, I will find it myself.
If you want to spread the word about something, make your own blog!
All spam received at my blog email is deleted without reading.

Cranial Nerves
12:41 PM |
Edit Post
Ah, Cranial Nerves. Beyond amusing mnemonics, I have trouble remembering which does what, and I found this link while clicking around AN today.
This was probably the most helpful way to remember them that I've run across so far. I wish I had seen this picture while I was still in my assessment class... so I shall post it here for you :)
Full article is here, from americannursetoday.com
Or a shorthand version, probably more useful in the clinical setting:

Useful videos:
Full-size cranial nerve assessment (we were taught to have the pt smell coffee grounds through each nare to confirm olfactory nerve intact)

I like that quick assessment.
Thanks for sharing!
I reblogged this one b/c it was so useful.
You found a new follower.
How cool is the diagram and the video. Thank you for sharing. I'm sure this will be very useful for my future schooling.
Awshum, I am glad you liked it :) Thanks for stopping by, Sean!
Thanks so much for this "cranial nerves by the numbers" picture... I searched the entire www -- because I misplaced my flashcard that I originally used with this pic...(in block II). I am ecstatic that you put this here. Also, thanks for the videos... last medsurg exam is coming up for me (plus final). I'll be graduating May 11.
