Information and Hand Outs
Here are materials that all students will need to look over to successfully complete this course.
Medical Student Documentation
(1) Student documentation is an important part of medical student education. This documentation should reflect the independent clinical thinking of the student.
(2) At all sites where students rotate, the importance of learning proper documentation is encouraged.
(3) Students are encouraged to notify the course director with any problems accessing and documenting in the medical record.
(4) Students may chart in varied records depending on the site where they are rotating. They may document their notes in an electronic health record like EPIC or be asked to use a paper chart.
(5) The use of notes which auto populate exam findings, assessments and plans is discouraged. When using templates, or their own prior documentation, students should carefully adjust the note to reflect newly completed work and to ensure the note is a useful addition to the medical record. It is acceptable to incorporate laboratory or imaging studies.
(6) Student notes must be co-signed by a resident or faculty member.
(7) Residents and faculty are encouraged to provide feedback to students on their documentation. If not provided, students are encouraged to ask for direct feedback on their documentation skills.
(8) Copying and pasting or otherwise using other’s documentation in paper or electronic form as your own is plagiarism and medical fraud. This activity will result in a professionalism evaluation in the student’s file.
Procedure Log
Step One: Put it on paper
Here is a link to a paper procedure log that you can use to track your procedures while you are working: Procedure Log
Step Two: Put it in E-value
You will need to transfer the data from the paper copy to the procedure log housed in evalue. Please go to www.e-value.net to complete this required step.
Special Note: Logging patients in e-value can be a time consuming process. It is suggested that you log your patients DAILY, perhaps in the evening after each workday. This will help you fulfill this requirement by the end of the clerkship and will prevent you from having to sit in front of the computer for hours and hours at the end of the rotation.
