Points: 45 | Due Date: Week 1, Day 7 | CLO: 3, 4 | Grade Category: Video History and Documentation with Risk Assessment

Assignment Prompt

• Select a patient. You may use a peer, friend, or family for this assignment, but they must be 18 or older.
• Verbally consent the patient at the beginning of the video, asking their permission to record and upload video as “unlisted” for instructor viewing/grading
• The interview must be conducted in English
• Ensure the microphone volume is adequate
• Obtain a complete health history from this “patient”
• Have the patient pretend they are visiting you for a “well exam” or “annual check up” (as opposed to a problem focus) and use the health history template posted in the course.
• DO NOT perform any physical exam. You are only doing the interview portion of the patient visit for this assignment.
• Video tape yourself obtaining this health history, including consent
• Limit your video time to 45 minutes maximum. A thorough history is usually around 20-30 minutes. If your history is less than 15 minutes, you are probably missing a lot of information.
• Document your findings as you would for a comprehensive visit, including a risk assessment (at least three risks with rationale) in your assessment.
• Submit this write-up of the history and risk assessment via the assignment tab.
• With submission, include the link to video via Youtube. Submit in electronic format, no video tapes or discs will be accepted. Ensure your link works and privacy settings are correct (unlisted vs private – instructor can’t see private).
