FOR AGPCNP STUDENTS EPISODIC VISIT: COMMON GYNECOLOGIC HEALTH CONDITIONS FOCUSED NOTE FOR FNP STUDENTS OB EPISODIC VISIT: FOCUSED NOTE

Patient histories are a building block of the diagnosis and treatment. By effectively interviewing patients in their care, advanced practice nurses can piece together facts to construct a relevant history that can lead to assessment and treatment.

For this Focused Note Assignment, you will select a patient with common gynecologic health conditions from your clinical experience and construct a patient history, assess and diagnose the patient’s health condition(s), and justify the best treatment option(s) for the patient.
