Click Week 1: Shadow Health Assessment Assignment

You will complete all assessment assignments using the Shadow Health  virtual reality simulation platform.

Introduction and Pre-brief
In this graded assignment, you will interview Tina Jones to conduct a comprehensive health history and collect data to assess Ms. Jones’ recent right foot injury. You will have the opportunity to educate and empathize with Tina to engage in effective therapeutic communication; create a problem list using evidence from the data you collected; prioritize the identified problems to differentiate immediate from non-immediate care; and plan how to best address the most important concern with further assessment, interventions, and patient education. For this assignment, you will conduct a limited physical assessment. Your objective documentation must include a general statement and the findings for the skin (integumentary) body system.

Tips and Tricks
You will earn points on the Digital Clinical Experience (DCE) score during Shadow Health activities for how well you identify and respond to opportunities to emphasize and educate your patients. Just as in real life, timing matters. For example, if your patient reveals that she is experimenting with illegal drugs and you “skip over” the chance to address the issue during the interview, you will not be able to recapture that moment to educate your patient later in the activity. Consequently, you will lose points on the Digital Clinical Experience (DCE) score.
At the end of each Physical Assessment Assignment in Shadow Health are post-activity reflection questions. Be aware that the quality of your response to each question is measured as part of the graded assignment. Please review the details on the guideline and grading rubric. In order to achieve full credit for this portion of the grading rubric, you need to respond to each reflection post question, provide analysis of your performance, use professional language, and demonstrate insight. Please reach out to your faculty with any questions.
Purposes
The purposes of the Shadow Health Physical Assessment Assignments are to: (a) increase knowledge and understanding of advanced practice physical assessment skills and techniques, (b) conduct focused and comprehensive histories and physical assessments for various patient populations, (c) adapt or modify your physical assessment skills and techniques to suit the individual needs of the patient, (d) apply assessment skills and techniques to gather subjective and objective data, (e) differentiate normal from abnormal physical examination findings, (f) summarize, organize, and appropriately document findings using correct professional terminology, (g) practice developing primary and differential diagnoses, (h) practice creating treatment plans which include diagnostics, medication, education, consultation/referral, and follow-up planning; and (i) analyze and reflect on own performance to gain insight and foster knowledge.

Activity Learning Outcomes
Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:

Apply knowledge and understanding of advanced practice physical assessment skills and techniques (CO1)

Perform focused and comprehensive histories and physical assessments for various patient populations (CO4 and CO5)

Adapt skills and techniques to suit the individual needs of the patient (CO4)

Differentiate normal from abnormal physical examination findings (CO2)

Summarize, organize, and document findings using correct professional terminology (CO3)

Reflect upon performance to gain insight and foster knowledge (CO1)

Due Date:

Sunday 11:59 PM MT at the end of Week 1.

Students are expected to submit assignments by the time they are due. Assignments submitted after the due date and time will receive a deduction of 10% of the total points possible for that assignment for each day the assignment is late. Assignments will be accepted, with penalty as described, up to a maximum of three days late, after which point a zero will be recorded for the assignment.

In the event of an emergency that prevents timely submission of an assignment, students may petition their instructor for a waiver of the late submission grade reduction. The instructor will review the student’s rationale for the request and make a determination based on the merits of the student’s appeal. Consideration of the student’s total course performance to date will be a contributing factor in the determination. Students should continue to attend class, actively participate, and complete other assignments while the appeal is pending.

Critically appraise the findings as normal or abnormal.
Based on the interview and brief physical assessment, create a problem list.
Complete the post activity assessment questions for each assignment.
Complete all reflection questions following each physical assessment assignment.
Digital Clinical Experience (DCE) scores do not round up. For example, a DCE score of 92.99 is a 92, not a 93.
You have a maximum of two (2) attempts per Shadow Health assignment to improve your performance. However, you may elect not to repeat any assignment. NOTE: If you repeat an attempt, ONLY the second attempt will be graded, regardless of the DCE score. Please refer to the grading rubric categories for details.
Download the Lab Pass for the final attempt on the assignment (see number 8).
On the Canvas Platform:

Summarize, organize, and appropriately document findings using correct professional terminology on the SOAP Note Template.
Document a comprehensive problem list based upon the history and physical examination findings on the SOAP Note Template.
Provide rationales and citations for diagnoses and interventions for the brief treatment plan.
Include at least one scholarly source to support diagnoses and treatment interventions with rationales and references on the SOAP note. Only scholarly sources are acceptable for citation and reference in this course. These include peer-reviewed publications, government reports, or sources written by a professional or scholar in the field. The textbooks and lessons are NOT considered to be outside scholarly sources. For the threaded discussions and reflection posts, reputable internet sources such as websites by government agencies (URL ends in .gov) and respected organizations (often ends in .org) can be counted as scholarly sources. The best outside scholarly source to use is a peer-reviewed nursing journal.  You are encouraged to use the Chamberlain library and search one of the available databases for a peer-reviewed journal article.  The following sources should not be used: Wikipedia, Wikis, or blogs.  These websites are not considered scholarly as anyone can add to these. Please be aware that .com websites can vary in scholarship and quality.  For example, the American Heart Association is a .com site with scholarship and quality. Each student is responsible for determining the scholarship and quality of any .com site.  Ask your instructor before using any site if you are unsure. Points will be deducted from the rubric if the site does not demonstrate scholarship or quality. Current outside scholarly sources must be published with the last 5 years.  Instructor permission must be obtained BEFORE the assignment is due if using a source that is older than 5 years.
