Rotation 7 Psychiatry: Site Evaluation Summary

During the first site evaluation, each of the student presented a H&P. I presented a case on schizoaffective disorder. The site evaluator would give comments on places that we could improve for the final evaluation. We had learned that the mental status exam is very important for psychiatric patient presentation. For the final presentation, I presented another case on major depressive disorder and polysubstance abuse. We also talked about how the plan for the patient should had changed or improved. After that, I also presented an article on adjunctive therapy for schizophrenia. The site evaluator commented that I should had picked articles with a larger sample size for generalization. The article should also be done in the U.S because foreign health care system might be different compared to the one in the U.S. I agree with the site evaluator and I would make sure that my presenting articles in the future rotations would meet the requirements. The site evaluator also ensured that we are learning in our rotation site and that we feel safe in the site.
