ABOUT THE COURSE:
Clinical reasoning is a core competency for ensuring patient safety and the quality of patient care. It is a skill, process, or outcome wherein physicians observe, collect, and interpret data to diagnose and treat patients. Problems flagged during “Physician Practice Reviews”, such as missed diagnoses and suboptimal documentation, frequently reveal gaps in clinical reasoning. This course aims to explicitly remind and refresh physicians of the foundational elements that support clinical reasoning. Participants will learn steps and tools that lead to a better clinical process and improved practice.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of the course, participants will be equipped to:

  • Recognize the foundational elements supporting clinical reasoning
  • Access your own mental pathways for clinical processes and reasoning
  • Apply tools to self-evaluate and improve clinical reasoning
