Patient Interviewing is the first in a series of courses concentrating on the behavioral aspects of primary care medicine through the integration of individual, family and community concerns, an approach commonly used in primary care medicine. Patient Interviewing will teach students the skills needed in interviewing, history taking and medical note writing. Communication skills, including cross-cultural competencies, self-reflection and clinician bias will be discussed. Patient-centered care and patient education will be an integral part of this course. Class participation and role-playing is required in order to develop these skills.
