Exploring the reason for the visit

Getting the patient to talk calls for an open, engaging manner. Learn how to ask the right questions – and how to actively listen during this most patient-centred part of the medical interview.

Taking the history

Exploring the main complaint using your own medical frame of reference. Brush up on the kind of careful questioning that will obtain the accurate information you need to help you make a diagnosis.

Presenting solutions

Making a direct response to the patient’s request for help. How to best use the information you obtained from steps 1 and 2. The quality of these exchanges will have a major influence on the solutions that you can present, including advice, referral, etc.

Structuring the interview
