Clinical Highlights
Choose one or more
of the following to guide your self-reflection of your experience this week. Do not report on an extended SOAP note patient. The reflection should be a minimum of 100 to 150 words.
Discuss an encounter that was particularly interesting and what you learned from it?
Discuss a difficult or challenging encounter and how you handled it?
Discuss an example of how you were able to independently contribute to this week’s encounters?
Were there any patient management plans developed by your preceptor that surprised you?
Were you able to “teach” your preceptor anything this week?
Identify a personal learning need you discovered while assessing or managing a specific diagnosis. What steps will you take to improve your understanding or skills?
What insights did you gain during your experience this week that will prove most helpful for future encounters?
What personal success do you want to celebrate?
If I could have a do over, I would have done this instead……
Discussion
The encounter that interests me the most is the client that is dealing with dissociative identity disorder. This client also suffers from major depressive disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder. This patient was sexually abused by her father for years and the DID is thought to have been in response to the abuse. She was diagnosed with DID at the age of 16 and received a little bit of therapy afterwards. She is now 18 and a freshman in college. She stated that she was not ready to "get rid of the other two personalities because they helped me through the abuse", but that now she is ready to get help. She wants to learn to manage her conditions and take any medication needed to
have a normal college experience.
