Your focus this week is Simulation Case Study #2: Painful Rash, where you will demonstrate your ability to collect, organize, and document both subjective and objective patient data.

Remember-the goal of this assignment is not to diagnose or treat the patient. Instead, think like a clinician gathering information and documenting findings that will support future clinical decision-making.

Assignment Overview

This assignment is divided into three parts:

Part I: Comprehensive Health History (Subjective Data Only)
The health history includes only information reported by the patient.

Be sure to:

Expand the HPI using OLDCARTS
Write the HPI as a cohesive paragraph (not bullet points)
Include complete:
Past Medical History (PMH)
Past Surgical History (PSH)
Medications
Allergies
Family History
Preventive Health
Social History
Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) – consider relevant social factors when documenting patient information.
Complete a focused Review of Systems (ROS)

Tip: If specific information is not provided in the case study, you may create reasonable subjective findings and history details to complete the assessment. The goal is complete and professional documentation.

Part II: Focused Physical Examination (Objective Data Only)
The physical examination includes only what the clinician observes, palpates, percusses, or auscultates.

Be sure to:

Perform and document a focused exam appropriate to the chief complaint
Document expected objective findings based on your clinical reasoning
Use professional medical terminology supported by a strong foundation in Anatomy Biology

Accurate documentation and effective Business Communication principles help ensure findings are clearly conveyed for future clinical decision-making.
