Step 1: For this assignment, students will create a video presentation performing a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation of an infant or toddler and following a PowerPoint.
You are expected to choose a child and an adult to conduct an interview with. You will be graded on your interview skills when interviewing the persons performing as an infant or toddler and a parent. You are expected to ask the patient and the parent questions the same way you do with your patients in the clinic.
I expect that you will conduct a mental status exam during the interview. If you don’t ask it or explain how you observed it, then don’t document it. Only the information asked in the video will be used for grading.
Step 2: Each student will create a focused SOAP Note PowerPoint presentation. SOAP is an acronym that stands for Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan. The SOAP Note PowerPoint is to be written using the attached template below. Do not provide a voiceover or video for the PowerPoint. Only the information asked in the video will be used for grading.

Subjective data: Patient’s Chief Complaint (CC); History of the Present Illness (HPI)/ Demographics; History of the Present Illness (HPI) that includes the presenting problem and the 8 dimensions of the problem (OLDCARTS or PQRST); Review of Systems (ROS).
