Yes u got 10 min to write pt note. U can use paper or computer. Use the computer so u r sure they can read u , if u have a bad handwriting... SPs don't give cards. If u have to do a pelvic or PR, just tell the SP she'll need it, that u'll do it later, and write it on your work-up plan.
most important : be polite, introduce urself, call SPs by their names, WASH YOUR HANDS, COVER THE SPs while PE.
good luck

Thanks for all of your info. Couple of questions: Do we need to introduce ourselves as doctors??? When you test the reflexes, is it better for the patient to be laying down or sitting??And do I need to examine the lung anteriorly and posteriorly???
Thanks a bunch

1. introduce yourself as doctor b'cos all the preceptors call you doctor
2. Reflexes- depends upon how you were taught- I was taught upper limb sitting and lower limb supine
3. If I was doing a quick exam then I listened to the posterioir lung fields only, but for my respiratory cases I did a full RS exam
