Slide 12
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series Very different than
ambulatory medicine and family medicine Structure: Non-call days:
pre-round, run the list with the intern/resident, rounds, help with
the workload (calling consults, procedures, outside records, etc.)
+ educational activities Call days: same structure as above while
admitting new patients throughout the day (may formally present the
patient that day or the next day) THOROUGHNESS is key INPATIENT
MEDICINE
Slide 13
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series AMBULATORY AND FAMILY
MEDICINE Ambulatory medicine and family medicine are similar
Structure: short patient visits, on-the- spot assessment and plan,
may work directly with the attending EFFICIENCY is key
Slide 14
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series PART 1 THE
PATIENT
Slide 15
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series GENERAL PRINCIPLES
The patient ALWAYS comes first It may not feel like it, but you
have much more time than your residents, so read about your
patients and know each of them well
Slide 16
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series PATIENT CARE Good
rapport goes a long way Take full responsibility for your patients,
but still rely on the rest of the team A good history and physical
exam, documented in a well-written note and presented during
rounds, is FOUNDATIONAL Medical students are expected to be good
information-gatherers
Slide 17
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series PROBLEM LISTING
Inpatient: First problem: chief complaint, or most serious problem
Any other patient complaints, abnormal physical exam findings,
abnormal labs/studies Chronic problems Finish with FEN/GI/PPx,

student] who only triples my work and I will kiss his feet. - Law

Slide 22
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series GENERAL PRINCIPLES
Team structure, inpatient vs. outpatient How to impress your
attending Good patient presentations and notes Teaching Staying
engaged during rounds Being a team player and NEVER throwing your
coworkers under the bus Ask for feedback, letters of
recommendation
Slide 23
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series PRESENTING YOUR
PATIENTS Inpatient vs. outpatient presentations There is no perfect
presentation, each attending is different and has different
expectations! A concise presentation is the hallmark of clinical
maturity, but you have to first earn the trust of your team Include
only the pertinent items Exclude extraneous information HOWEVER,
you must first earn the trust of your team before making your
presentations concise
Slide 24
www.amsa.org How to Thrive Webinar Series PRESENTING YOUR
PATIENTS Assessment/Plan section is where you display your
reasoning, and is how attendings will judge you A good A/P sets you
apart from many students that act only as information gatherers
