DC for Clients and Facilitators

• Your client's evaluation of the clinic.  

  • If you don't have it, just assume that the students received ALL the client points and proceed.  We can deduct points later if necessary, but students usually get all the client evaluation points.

• The DC Presentation Evaluation Form you filled out for each of your clinics during DC Grand Rounds.

• A completed SOAP rubric if you completed one for your students' POMR - to be attached to the rest of the evaluation

• The final medical record from each clinic, including their presentation handout and literature search.

• +/- The student's Peer Evaluations of each other – from Rachel Halsey or Steve:

NOTE:  You may not have the peer evaluations yet, so just proceed on the assumption that students will receive all 5 peer points.  In other words, just enter 5 points in your evaluation.  We will deduct these points if we learn of a problem later.  It is ideal of course, to be able to look through the peer comments before the DC Group meets to debrief so you can discuss any identified problems.

We will try to make sure we have DC evaluations from ALL the students in your groups. If we're missing any, we may ask you to email the offending student and request he/she turn one in ASAP. Threaten them if necessary – a completed evaluation is required.

Please try to provide some specific comments in each category (as much as you can manage) – things that might be helpful in the future. Our students are hungry for specific feedback.

After you mark the boxes and write some comments, give a score in each category (see below). The total facilitator + client points = 45, plus 5 points from peers = 50 points total. 

1. THE PROCESS:  25 points  Problem-oriented approach, case management + POMR

2. TEACHING EFFECTIVENESS:   10 points   Grand Rounds presentation, DC handout, and literature search

   • If you filled out a DC Presentation Evaluation during DC Grand Rounds, either hand them to Steve or Rachel or scan them and email it to Rachel Halsey.  

3. CLIENT COMMUNICATION: 5 points - For now, assume student will receive all 5 points.

   • Enter a score based on the client's evaluation form if you have it.  Otherwise, proceed by initially assuming the students will receive all the points and enter 5.

   • If you have it, insert the client's completed evaluation into the final copy that will be returned to the students - or attach it to the email you send to Steve and Rachel Halsey.

4. PERCEIVED EFFECTIVENESS AS A TEAM:  5 points

5. PEER EVALUTION: 5 points - For now, assume student will receive all 5 points.   Contribution to the team and ability to work as part of a team.  

   • Generally students receive all 5 points.  So you can proceed by just entering 5 and figuring this will be correct.  If we learn of a problem later, we will just deduct the points from any individual student who was did not meet the expectations of you can print off a single evaluation for the entire clinic.

   • If you have the peer evaluations and see that > 50% of the clinic members rate a student as Needs Improvement or Unsatisfactory, you should talk with Steve and your co-facilitator. Typically it's all or none (5 or 0) points, but this is subject to further thought and discussion.

   • If a student in the clinic is receiving fewer points than his/her team mates, print off a separate evaluation for this student and leave the student's name off the group form.

TOTAL SCORE: Form Lizard will automatically add up your scores.

Once you have completed the online form, please email Rachel Halsey that the evaluation is complete.  The DC is worth 50 points total.

Our goal is to return ALL evaluations on the same day at <10 working days after the end of the exercise.
