Discharge Summary Feedback
University of Nebraska College of Medicine

Product ID: 20546 |
Abstract:
This product was created to help teach medical students how to write a thorough discharge summary. The Pearl card is supplemented by an interactive web module that gives the learner a short concise review of hospital admission orders and care. The checklist outlines features that should be included in the discharge summary. This can be used by the student as a reminder of what to write or it can be used by a faculty member who is evaluating a discharge summary created by a learner. The questionnaire is an easily-completed form which should be filled out by a provider who is reading (and using) a discharge summary written by a learner. It can be returned to the student after completion to help them understand how to improve. These materials help the learner to understand why each element of a discharge summary is needed. Use of the documents along with the web module "closes the loop" on the educational process for the learner.
