- A discharge summary can be difficult for any medical student. How can you condense so much information into a concise summary when you are still struggling to understand the medicine? In this video, I teach you the format of a discharge summary and, more importantly, the exact information that needs to be in it. After this, you'll be writing stellar discharge summaries as a medical student in no time!

ABOUT ME:
I'm Monica, an Internal Medicine attending at University of California, Los Angeles. I'm here to provide high-yield videos for medical students and residents. My favorite topics include how to succeed on clinical rotations, clinical skills, and some good old pathophysiology! I'm also obsessed with my cats and fitness, but I think there are enough cat and fitness videos out there...
That's a nice looking discharge summary, would be a nice one to see while I'm in clinic for hospital discharge follow-up hahaha :) Not all discharge summaries are quite as . . . useful hahaha
Totally agree. I do mostly outpatient for now, so I feel you! 😅
I had a complicated patient. Did the problem list style. Resident said to do it paragraph style. I see the validity of both styles, but it's always a good idea to ask what style the resident/attending wants so you use your time well.
Totally agree! There are definitely exceptions/stylistic differences. A lot of succeeding in clerkships is really just learning how to adapt quickly to new preferences, for better or for worse!
Great video with lots of nice tips. I first learned how to write discharge summaries as a student using MEDITECH EHR. The final generated note came out looking very similar to the one you showed. I love reading and prefer writing discharge summaries like this.
Thank you! Yes, I love when discharge summaries are clean and easy to read. ☺️
Love your videos, subscribed!
Thank you!!! 😁
This is very helpful. Thank you.
Thanks so much!! :)
could you link a copy of your example? Like you did with the oral presentation for AKI, thank you
I'm so sorry I don't have this file anymore! I'll be sure to link examples in the future. I can definitely see how that would be useful. Thanks for watching!
Content value always on point but I wanted to say the EDITING is becoming more killer with each video. Can't wait to read discharge summaries on my outpatient medicine rotation next week!!
