Don’t need to ask about reason for visit. Can ask here today for f/u on asthma/ eczema/ allergies? to keep it brief
For med allergies: ask if any change from last visit if follow up
Ask other questions briefly
Start asking smoking history at 12
Remember to ask about signs of sickness
Usually a good idea to put all pts into rooms
ASAP unless it would interfere with the schedule Ex: 10:00 gets to office before 9:30. If a pt is more than 35-40 min early, can ask MD
Use judgement based on where MD is during day Ex: if MD is running 20 minutes behind, can spend a few more minutes in room with pt if needed
For all ordered testing (EXCEPT SS), can put on all if pt is following up within reasonable time. Always a good idea to ask food testing pts (especially kids) if there are any new food concerns
SS will always see pts first, so can put pt in room and let her know they are here
MAs to check schedule for current day and chart on pts that were added after you checked for week.
MAS always check huddle notes for that day - let FD/ nurses know if they need to call pts/ make trays
If they have a dx of asthma or used an inhaler in the past year, do PFT unless EO pt. He will put in huddle note.
