Answer these questions about today’s client:

1. Recognize Cues — Explain any assessment changes since the start of shift.

2. Analyze Cues — How are the changes important or significant?

3. Prioritize Hypothesis — What could be causing the changes?

4. Generate Solutions — What can/should you do about these changes?

5. Take Action — What did I do about it? What would I do about it?

6. Evaluate Outcomes — Did my actions make a difference? Why are why not? What should have been done differently?

Answer these questions about today’s client:

1. Compare this client with one that you’ve cared for previously in clinical, simulation, or a class case study. What things were the same and what was different related to their condition, assessment findings, provider prescriptions, medications, etc?

2. Compare this client with the “textbook” , what was the same and what was different?
