General Tips
Refer to Chapter 4 (Jarvis, 2020) for information on each required health history area. *Be sure to follow the Written Assignment Rubric.
Each section should be used as a Level 1 heading in your paper “Centered, Bold, Title Case Heading” (American Psychological Association, 2020, p. 48).
Please remember to protect your patient’s privacy.
Use initials instead of first and last names when mentioning your patient.
Do not disclose your patient’s address.
This is not a medical record, it is an academic paper so please follow APA guidelines.
For ease of access, it is recommended that you use a family member, friend, or classmate within close proximity as your “patient”.
This activity will be graded using the written assignment rubric.
