    I agree it great examination,however am confused with the steps.
    she started by checking the thyroid status by assessing the composure then the hand and pulse and beofore complete the status she moved to “thyroid gland examination”!
    thyroid status and thyroid examination are completely different.
    I would think you should start with thyroid gland examination then move or offer to examin the status.
    please correct me if am wrong!!!
