All I bring is a stethoscope, right? No reflex hammers or anything else?
I plan to wear my "student" white coat, which is short. That's OK, right? I don't need a long white coat, do I?
My white coat has a school patch on the breast pocket. Do I need to remove it or cover it with tape or something?
Are the short notes we write supposed to be handwritten or typed? My handwriting is OK, but I don't type THAT fast. Someone told me they offer computers so you can type the notes.
And in the wrap up, you are supposed to give the patient a differential diagnosis (3-5?) AND some tests you'd order? And then you list those on your written note?
SOAP note format is OK: subjective, objective, assessment (with dif), and plan (with further tests)?
Anything else I should know about this test? (No one I know has taken it yet)
THANKS!!!
