Took my PE last week, but I am worried about this mistake that I made. So in the examining room I sat at the table next to where the patient was sitting. I used the table to take notes so I was on the left side of the patient.
Should I have been sitting on a stool right in front of the patient? I am worried that they might think I was too far from them!!
I did this for mostly all the patients. I did make eye contact with them when they answered my questions.
Also, some for some of the cases I realized after I got home that I made the wrong diagnosis!!! I did this for about 3 0r 4 cases. Some of the cases were vague and it was hard to tell what their problem was.
Also my handwriting was really sloppy b/c I was writing soooo fast!!! How will they read my note?????
I am so worried I will have to retake this!!!!!!!!!!!!
