Hi All,
I was wondering whether people had advice on improving clinical presentations skills during rounds? Or any ways to practice outside the actual clinical setting?
I got a Pass (as opposed to a high-pass and honors) in 3 internal medicine rotations (general internal medicine, infectious diseases, and my acting internship)... Kinda stinks, because I think it has limited my residency prospects. Based on feedback from preceptors, my main issue is my presentation skills. I think a contributor to this is a lack of confidence when presenting (which I think i've made some strides on, but still limits me at times) and I think sometimes I have difficulty in presenting an assessment and plan in an organized fashion (this happens particularly when it's fast-paced service and don't have time to become fully flesh out my A&P)
Any tips or ways of practicing presentation skills that worked for you? I'm hoping to make some improvements on this communication skill during the more chill M4 year before the stress of intern year
Thank you!
