Description of CME Course
Reaching agreement is a complex process that includes identifying the nature of the problem, defining preferred roles and involvement in decision making, agreeing on goals, and gathering and sharing biomedical and psychosocial information. Participants in this process must address feelings, concerns, and preferences, while building consensus and collaborating to create shared decisions. Checking for mutual understanding helps to clarify and confirm agreement. After you have elicited the patient’s history, completed the physical exam and formulated your thoughts about the patient’s problems and how to manage them, the next step is discussing your ideas with patients, listening to their ideas, and reaching agreement about the plans. Without this critical step, patients in the hospital cannot know and have no say in what’s happening or being done to them and why.
Diplomate Engagement
Self-assessment questions tailored to each specific module topic are required upon module completion. Multiple choice questions required; open-ended discussion questions are optional.
