  6. I agree that when in the classroom you have to start by using an outline. Yet I have noticed during actual patient contact that the newbies are so busy trying to follow the outline that they aren't paying attention to patients answers. I often tell newbies that they have a very short time to build a relationship with a patient. They are going to ask questions no stranger normally has the right to ask and touch where no stranger would put his hands. I think the patient (and family) interview is extremely important.
  7. Well now you have my interest stirred up. I teach mostly by scenario forum, I try to create an environment similar to the scene and try to use props and make up often. But clues are linear because you are leading the students in a particular direction I don't know how you could avoid that. They don't get the clue until they ask the correct question. I would be very interested in any direction you have.
  8. As you mentioned I often pat them on the shoulder or hand. I once told another emt that when doing an assessment you are touching people where they are not used to being touched, so you have a very short time to build a relationship. Very important to have the right attitude with a patient.
