In today's medical education curriculum, it is necessary for students to learn the proper technique for taking medical histories, performing physical exams, and finding the appropriate way to educate and inform patients. The best way for a student to learn these skills is through hands-on training with a Standardized Patient (SP)--an actor who has been hired to portray a specific set of health problems and symptoms.
Tips to Help You Ö
Develop Coaching Skills and Be a Director to Your SPs
Cast Standardized Patients
Get the Best Performance from Your Actors
Perfect Your SPs' Timing of Fact Delivery during Examinations
Improve the SPs' Written Feedback to Students
Streamline Training Regimens; Checklists Included
Working with SPs has become so important in medical education that it is now a component of the USMLE clinical skills assessment exam. To ensure best practice, the coaches who prepare SPs now need general guidelines.
This handbook is intended as that guide and as a support for those who are involved in training SPs, to encourage each coach to develop a system that will deliver the best results and, in the end, help train the most competent doctors.
Peggy Wallace, PhD, is Associate Adjunct Professor of Medicine and Director of Curricular Resources and Clinical Evaluation at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine, where she is responsible for the teaching, assessment, and remediation of clinical skills using standardized patients in the undergraduate medical school curricula. For the past 10 years she has been Director of the Professional Development Center at the UCSD School of Medicine, where the clinical skills of residents and practicing physicians are also being assessed.
