I then proceed with a room-to-room visit, in an effort to examine and identify key vitals on the said patients. During the said room-to-room visits, I also administer the relevant medications. Between the first round and the second round, which is usually scheduled at 11:30 A.M., I usually attend to any administrative issues assigned to me.
