ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 

Shadow Health Comprehensive Assessment

Introduction

The Comprehensive Assessment is a form that allows us to ask questions about your health, along with gathering some basic information. The goal of the assessment is to get a baseline of your health so we can see if something changes and monitor it.

Intake Questions

• What is your age?

• What is your gender?

• What is your ethnicity?

• Where do you live? (This question is only asked if a person with a different ethnicity would not normally be present in this area.)

• How long have you been in this area?: The answer to the previous question will help establish how long they have lived here. If they are new to the area, their answers may reflect that experience by using words like “newly” and “just moved here.” A person who has lived in an area for years may give details about their childhood or adolescence when answering this question; these details could also include where they went to school or college if applicable.

• What is your occupation?: This question helps determine whether someone works full time or part time at any given time during their life cycle (for example: new graduates who are still searching for jobs).

General survey questions with patient.

You will be asked to answer the following questions:

• How are you feeling today?

• Is there anything new or different about your health that I should know about? If so, what is it and how long has this been occurring?

• Have any of your symptoms changed since last time we talked (e.g., were they worse or better)? Please describe them here in detail so that we can make sure that our care plan is appropriate for you.

Vital Signs

Vital signs are the most important aspect of the physical examination. The vital signs are used to determine whether the patient is overheated or underheated, has a fever or infection, and so on.

The most important thing to remember in taking vital signs from a patient is that you should always check for normal values first before checking abnormal values. Check for temperature first because if your patient’s temperature is too high or low for their age/height/weight (depending on what type of illness they have), you can rule out other conditions such as influenza or pneumonia by looking at their symptoms instead of just their numbers alone.

Additional health concerns

You may also want to ask about additional health concerns, such as:

• Medications the patient is taking.

• Recent injuries or accidents.

• Recent surgeries or hospitalizations.

You should also ask about any other health concerns that might affect your assessment of the patient’s mental health status, such as:

Takeaway:

The takeaway is the most important part of the article. It is a summary of the main points in the article and should be written in a way that makes it easy to understand.

The takeaway should be written in an engaging tone, so that it keeps people’s interest throughout your entire essay or article.

Conclusion

This is an assessment that can be done by anyone with just a little bit of training. It’s not for the faint of heart, but it does give you confidence in your ability to assess patients who might otherwise be overlooked or dismissed due to their lack of health insurance or economic status.
