Instructions
Once completing the orientation session, you will have access to your first iHuman case where you can explore the functionality of the site prior to starting the weekly scheduled cases. This case will be graded, and you will be expected to submit a SOAP note associated with this case. Complete the iHuman case study assigned for the week. You will be working in the iHuman platform to complete the case. Follow the directions on logging in and navigating in iHuman. Refer back to the iHuman Orientation for complete instructions on navigating in iHuman.
When working in iHuman, practice as if this were a real patient. For example, the platform allows you to ask many questions when taking a history. However, in reality, you will likely be limited in time. Practice setting yourself a time limit and work on being efficient in your clinical interview. While there is time for empathy, you do not want to distract from good clinical investigation.
In iHuman, review the specific instructions for the appropriate case. These instructions will help you understand the expectations of each case, as they may differ.
Once you have completed all the steps in iHuman, complete a SOAP Note (Word) for the patient you worked with. (Note: The template is meant to be a guide. You can change the formatting of your SOAP note if the table style does not work for you. Additionally, you can copy and paste what you have written in iHuman into your SOAP note if the content is appropriate.)
