Today in clinic I had my first online consultation. I found that before I saw the client I was nervous but luckily I had the opportunity to partner up with another student prior to seeing my client and record notes whilst they were in their own consultation, I found this useful as I was able to see how they worked and navigated the process whilst being able to note the things that I would do differently. My client was presenting with a shoulder pathology with the clinical impression of a grade 1 sprain of the ligaments surrounding the ACJ and muscle strains in the anterior deltoid, lateral deltoid and trapezius. The culmination of the meeting is that I will be seeing the client in clinic next week in order to go through some exercises. In preparation for this I will be looking over the best treatments for ACJ injury and looking to see if game ready, tens or ultrasound will be appropriate. I found the online consultation to be quite enjoyable and I am satisfied that my client got what they wanted out of the session. In reference to writing my notes I thought I did a good job for a first attempt and I’m sure with the supervisors input ill be writing high quality clinical notes first time soon.
