PAS 668: Advanced Clinical Reasoning II: Clinical Medicine Lab


1 credit hour

Advanced Clinical Reasoning II is the continuation of Advanced Clinical Reasoning I. Students will continue to see their fellow student as a patient from start to finish but will now be placed in situations beyond the family practice setting. Students will continue to but may now see patients in a pediatric clinic, the emergency department, or any other clinical setting where a PA may work. Students will continue to conduct an objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) in preparation for the clinic year and to further develop their clinical reasoning skills. After both encounters are complete, students and their faculty preceptor discuss their cases and evaluate areas for improvement. Students will write a SOAP note for several encounters and give a case presentation for each encounter to their faculty preceptor.
