Please list specific strengths of the student noted during this

rotation.
Comments : *Comment Required

Student is organized and has great habits of time management. She was able to build an effective
rapport with the healthcare team. Student performed her first medication history during this rotation
and was open to feedback. Overall, I think Student learned a lot as it is her first true inpatient
experience.

Please list specific areas needing improvement which future

preceptors should focus on during subsequent rotations.

One thing I will encourage Student to do is look up more items/information on her own. At times it feels
that she is asking questions that she can find the answer to on her own (sometimes this is necessary, e.g.
when the providers need a quick answer), but oftentimes she has time to review on her own. Student
can also take a little time to think about questions when they are posed to her instead of just answering.
I know that if Student took an extra minute to formulate her thoughts that she could answer more
questions appropriately. Things Student can continue to work on include the collection and assessment
portion of patient care as well as slowing down and thinking before answering questions. When asked a
question, she is very quick to answer without seemingly taking a moment to stop and think through the
correctness of her answer, which makes it hard for her preceptor to really assess her baseline knowledge
or thought process. When further questioned to get clarification, it seems that she can shut down at
times. I would encourage her to slow down, think, and be open to the process of your preceptor digging
to get to the bottom of how we can help you grow and learn.

What specific activities would you suggest for this student

during future rotations which would complement his or her
experience(s) to date.

Student was encouraged to utilize various forms of literature and guidelines when searching for answers
to help support recommendations. She began to utilize appropriate resources and data search engines to
identify information instead of Google. Throughout the rotation experience, Student had a difficult time
analyzing literature and identifying the objectives of studies. She sometimes seems overwhelmed by the
material and does not understand why she is reviewing specific guidelines or articles. I encourage Student
to conduct journal clubs on future rotations, which can help her grasp key pieces of primary literature. I
also recommend that Student uses the P.I.C.O. method when analyzing literature to help her outline what
to focus on. Life-long learning Student can follow instructions for finding the answer to something when
directly asked and given the materials to find the answer in. However, she needs guidance as to
identifying what areas she needs to further develop in and where and how to find these answers. While I
would expect the need for further instruction to some degree with a student who is still learning, she still
seemed to need heavy directional guidance in this area by the end of rotation. In future rotations, I would
encourage her to try to identify areas of need prospectively on her own.
