Select a patient encounter from your current clinical experience.

Diagnostic and Clinical Reasoning Paper Assignment

 

 

The purpose of this assignment is to provide you the opportunity to expand the scope of your clinical documentation and your thought processes relative to complex patient care cases.  

 

 

1. Select a patient encounter from your current clinical experience. 

 

1. The patient encounter you select should be one of the more complex patient cases that you have experienced with your current clinical patient population.  Given that you are to select complex cases, this assignment may not be completed for a ‘general health, well child, well woman, routine OB, routine physical exam (etc.)’ type of encounter.

 

You will need to identify which patient encounter you are expanding your documentation for by including the Typhon Case ID # under your name on the title page of your paper. 

 

1. For this assignment, you will utilize the same SOAP format that you do for your ‘expanded’ Typhon encounters.  Construct this assignment ensuring that you adhere to the writing guidelines provided in the 6^th edition APA manual.
