Patient History Practice
Choose ONE partner and sit at a table with a letter label. (If you are at Table L then you can be a group of 3. There can only be ONE group of three and ONLY if there is an uneven number of people in class.)
Practice: Take turns completing the patient history form, record patient’s responses on your history form. Your patient is only allowed to VERBALLY answer questions. You can answer truthfully, or make information up. Keep answers appropriate.
After you both have practiced, show completed forms to sub. Then, you will practice with a case study (see directions below).
Case Study History Practice

Switch roles and complete the process again.
PROVIDERS CAN NOT SEE CASE STUDY PAPERS DURING HISTORY INTERVIEW.
TURN IN CASE STUDIES AND HISTORY FORMS BEFORE CLASS ENDS.
Hit submit when you both have turned in your case study's and history forms.

Screenings or Diagnostic Testing: how can we check for this disease, how were they diagnosed
Pharmacological Needs/Treatment: Medications or procedures needed to treat disease
Signs and symptoms of exacerbation: What should the patient monitor themselves for that would be a sign they were getting worse and not better
Support Systems: What organizations/meetings in this region might the patient attend or contact to receive help (money for treatment costs/mental health support/research/etc.)
Preventive measures: Include and describe examples of what the patient or anyone can do to prevent this disease?

Hospital Recruitment Video
Work with your assigned group to create a recruitment TikTok/InstaReel/YouTube video for your healthcare facilities using the information about therapeutic careers that you discovered through research. Your hospitals can all be in the same "system" for this video. Example, Covenant Healthcare System has many different facilities, so you may need to create a System name for your group.
Your video should cover 3 careers and include a general overview of the scope of practice and essential knowledge and skills required for therapeutic careers. At least one of the careers in the video should be included on a group members research chart. The goal of this video is to RECRUIT employees, so while you are highlighting the scope of practice and knowledge and skills, you should do your best to make your video appealing and make your facilities look like good places to work.
Include:
Overview of common knowledge, skills and tasks of therapeutic careers
Address 3 therapeutic careers with their specific knowledge, skills and tasks that would work at your hospital
Why should healthcare professionals want to work at your facilities?
Day 1 tasks:
Create storyboard using Google Slides
Create detailed script for each scene of the video. Include team member roles on the each slide (who is acting/reading/filming/etc.), and then you should have a slide for each "scene" in your video. Include pictures/drawings that help explain what you want the scene to look like, and include your script (word for word what you plan to say throughout the video). Your storyboard is not an "overview" of your video. It should be more like "step-by-step" directions to follow for completing your video.
Attach storyboard to this assignment.
