Hello! | |
Hi. I’m Preceptor Diana. I will explain the details of this assignment and your objectives, just as a preceptor would in real life. Pay close attention to this information as it will help guide your exam. At the end of this prebrief, you will answer a short question about the upcoming assignment. During the simulation, you may return to these instructions at any time by scrolling to the top of your transcript. | |
What is the situation? | |
It’s 4 p.m. on Tina Jones’ second day as a patient here at Shadow General Hospital. In anticipation of Ms. Jones being discharged from the hospital, your role in this simulation is that of a healthcare provider who will assess her skin, hair, and nails for any additional wounds or signs of impaired healing. | |
What are my objectives in this assessment? | |
In your interview with Ms. Jones, you will gather subjective data by asking about her skin, hair, and nails. These features, which help make up the integumentary system, are often an indicator of overall health. If you discover any disease states, ask about symptoms and the patient’s experiences of them. Your questioning should cover a broad array of the symptoms’ characteristics. You will also inquire into the health history of Ms. Jones’ family with regards to skin, hair, and nails so you can determine her genetic predisposition to any diseases. Regardless of whether you have assessed Tina previously, ask all questions that are medically relevant to her hair, skin, and nails. In addition to collecting subjective data, you will also examine Ms. Jones’ skin, hair, and nails to gather objective data. While you should communicate with patients using accessible, everyday language, it is standard practice to use professional medical terminology everywhere else, such as in documenting physical findings and nursing notes. You may complete the exam activities in any order and move between them as needed. | |
What else will this exam involve? | |
You will complete nursing tasks to protect the patients safety, privacy, and health. You can document your findings, including vital signs, in the Electronic Health Record. This record provides necessary information for healthcare professionals who will continue patient care. Activities other than Subjective and Objective Data Collection, such as Documentation and Education and Empathy, provide valuable practice for their real-world counterparts. However, they are not automatically graded by the simulation. | |
How will I be evaluated? | |
In this assignment, you will be evaluated on your Subjective and Objective Data Collection. The evaluation of your interview is dependent on how you word your questions therapeutically and precisely and explore all relevant topics with comprehensive breadth and depth. The evaluation of your physical exam is based on how successfully you report on your physical findings by selecting among clinical terms in the Electronic Health Record. This assignment takes on average between 50 and 70 minutes. You can pause and resume the assignment at any time; your work is always saved automatically. | |
How does this assignment prepare me for the real world? | |
In this assessment, you will become familiarized with the structure and content of skin, hair, and nail exams so that with real-life patients, you can: º ask effective and comprehensive questions º use therapeutic language º evaluate the patient’s risk of disease, infection, injury, and complications º and obtain and assess objective data. | |
In 1 or 2 sentences, answer this question to help prepare for the upcoming exam: What effect might a patient’s diabetes have on their skin? | |
Skin may turn brown or red | |
Time to begin. | |
Hello my name is Nukol | |
Hey. | |
Checked vitals | |
How is foot wound? | |
I think it’s getting much better. It had actually been getting worse, but I think being in the hospital has helped. | |
Do you have a history of slow healing wounds? | |
Usually I heal up fine. . . I’m really surprised this scrape has taken so long to get better. But being in the hospital has helped it. | |
Do you have a history of skin conditions? | |
No, unless acne counts. I suppose my dry skin counts, too. | |
What causes the skin dryness? (Clarified to What do you use for your dry skin?.) | |
I put lotion on my skin a lot, and that helps keep it from getting dry, it least for a while. (Clarified to what I do for my dry skin.) | |
Do you have acne? | |
Yeah, my skin breaks out a lot. . . it is right now. | |
How do you treat acne? | |

How is the mole appearance? | |
I don’t know. . . they’re just regular moles. | |
where is the mole location? | |
I think most of my moles are on my back. | |
Have you noted changes in skin color? (Clarified to Has your skin changed color?.) | |
Yeah, I was noticing recently that the skin on my neck is looking weird. . . it’s definitely getting darker. (Clarified to if my skin has changed color.) | |
when did the neck skin change start? | |
I only noticed the skin getting darker pretty recently, like in the last few months. But then I saw some photos of myself from a few years ago and it was getting darker then, so I guess it’s been that way for a while without my realizing it. | |
How is your neck skin sensation? (Clarified to Do you have sensation in your neck?.) | |
It’s. . . well, it’s definitely been getting darker, but it doesn’t hurt or feel weird or anything, it just looks different. (Clarified to if I have sensation in my neck.) | |
When did the body hair start? | |
I’ve had at least some hair there for a really long time, but it seems like it gets worse and worse every year. | |
have you noted tanning? | |
I don’t like tanning. I don’t get much sun, either. I’m not an outdoors person. | |
Have you noted changes in nail character? | |
My nails are normal. I haven’t noticed any problems with them. | |
do you have scalp problem? | |
Everything seems fine with my scalp. | |
Do you have related medical conditions? | |
Well, I have diabetes — I think that can affect your skin sometimes, but don’t quote me. | |
do you have family history of hair problems? | |
I don’t think so. | |
Do you have a family history of skin conditions? | |
I don’t think anyone in the family has skin problems. | |
