UMM2 Task 2: Midterm Objective Structured Clinical Experience (OSCE)

Requirements
Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. The similarity report that is provided when you submit your task can be used as a guide.

You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by more than one rubric aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions of the course.

Tasks may not be submitted as cloud links, such as links to Google Docs, Google Slides, OneDrive, etc., unless specified in the task requirements. All other submissions must be file types that are uploaded and submitted as attachments (e.g., .docx, .pdf, .ppt).

Identify the OSCE that corresponds with the first initial of your last name, according to the table in the task introduction. Schedule the OSCE with a live standardized patient by following the instructions in the attached “PMHNP Internship OSCE Information Guide.” Then, using the linked “PMHNP Initial Psychiatric Evaluation Template,” conduct the OSCE at the scheduled time by doing the following:

Video Recording

A. Demonstrate professionalism at all times during the virtual visit with the patient by doing the following:

1. Conduct the video visit in a private and appropriate location.
2. Wear professional attire.
3. Establish rapport with the patient at the start of the visit.
4. Provide an appropriate transition to the mental health status exam, including asking for permission to conduct the exam.
5. Ask the patient to restate the plan of care to check for understanding.

B. Provide a link to the Panopto video you recorded while conducting the mental health examination with the standardized patient.

Note: For instructions on how to access and use Panopto, use the ”Panopto How-To Videos” web link provided in the Web Links section. To access Panopto’s website, navigate to the web link titled ”Panopto Access” and then choose to log in using the “WGU” option. If prompted, log in using your WGU student portal credentials, and then it will forward you to Panopto’s website.

Note: You must ensure that both you and the standardized patient are recorded and able to be heard on the recording. If either of you cannot be heard, your submission will not be evaluated, and you will need to retake the OSCE.

Note: To submit your recording, upload it to the D348 Panopto Drop Box titled “Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Clinical Internship I – UMM2 |D348.” Once the recording has been uploaded and processed in Panopto’s system, retrieve the URL of the recording from Panopto and copy and paste it into the Links option. Upload the remaining task requirements using the Attachments option.
