Health History Tips & Tricks: ---------------TJ Health Interview
Student: Hello! ---------------Diana Shadow: Hi. I'm Preceptor Diana. I will explain the
details of this assignment and your objectives, just as a preceptor would in real life. Pay
close attention to this information as it will help guide your exam. At the end of this
prebrief, you will answer a short question about the upcoming assignment. During the
simulation, you may return to these instructions at any time by scrolling to the top of
your transcript.
Student: What is the situation? ---------------Diana Shadow: Your patient is Tina Jones:, a
28-year-old African American woman who has just been admitted to Shadow General
Hospital for a painful foot wound. Your role in this simulation is that of a healthcare
provider who will take Ms. Jones' health history, a key component of her admission
process.
Student: What are my objectives in this assessment? ---------------Diana Shadow: A
health history requires you to ask questions related to Ms. Jones' past and present
health, from her current foot wound to her pre-existing conditions. You will also want to
review Ms. Jones' systems, psychosocial history, and family medical history. These
assessments together will give you a comprehensive picture of Ms. Jones' overall
health. If you discover any disease states, ask about symptoms and the patient's
experiences of them. Your questioning should cover a broad array of the symptoms'
characteristics. Throughout the conversation, you should educate and empathize with
Ms. Jones when appropriate to increase her health literacy and sense of well-being.
Regardless of whether you have assessed Ms. Jones previously, ask all questions that
are necessary for obtaining a complete health history. While you should communicate
with patients using accessible, everyday language, it is standard practice to use
professional medical terminology everywhere else, such as in documenting physical
findings and nursing notes. You may complete the exam activities in any order and
move between them as needed. After obtaining Ms. Jones' health history, you will
complete an information processing activity. You will identify and prioritize diagnoses,
then create a plan to address the identified diagnoses.
Student: What else will this exam involve? ---------------Diana Shadow: You will complete
nursing tasks to protect the patients safety, privacy, and health. You can document your
findings, including vital signs, in the Electronic Health Record. This record provides
necessary information for healthcare professionals who will continue patient care.
Besides Subjective Data Collection, and Education and Empathy, there are activities
within the simulation that provide valuable practice for their real-world counterparts, but
they are not automatically graded by the simulation.
Student: How will I be evaluated? ---------------Diana Shadow: In this assignment, you
will be evaluated on your Subjective Data Collection, as well as your Education and
Empathy. Your success in Education and Empathy is based on whether you promptly
respond after identifying a moment worthy of therapeutic communication. The
evaluation of your interview is dependent on how you word your questions
therapeutically and precisely and explore all relevant topics with comprehensive breadth
and depth. You will also be evaluated on your ability to collect data and form nursing
diagnoses in the information processing activity. This assignment takes on average
between 90 and 110 minutes. This exam may take longer than in real life, because in
this safe simulation, students of all experience levels can take time to hone and review
their skills. You can pause and resume the assignment at any time; your work is always
saved automatically.
