PAS 511 - Patient Assessment and Counseling I

2 Credit Hours
This course series emphasis is on developing the skills in recognition of the “range of normal” physical findings. The course emphasizes patient-centered interviewing, acquiring a medical database, and performing a comprehensive physical examination and assessment. The student will synthesize, document, and communicate in oral or written form using an accurate taxonomy of discourse, medical terminology, and diagnostic codes to document findings in the medical record. In the laboratory sessions of these “hands-on” experiences, students practice and perform select procedures on classmates or simulated patients. Simulation labs using models and partial task trainers will enhance the learning experience.
