Based on the epidemiology, I ALWAYS consider treatment non-adherence and substance abuse, You need no clues from the history – both are too common to ever rule out at first glance.
Also, I’ve learned to keep a poker face – whatever I’m thinking & feeling, I generally let the patient only see what seems useful to build rapport and cooperation. It pays off VERY well in clinical terms, and in terms of my work load and stress level.

Been there, although not so much with the tubes – I’ve always worked Psych, and I’ve always been the guy who takes ‘that patient,’ the one everyone hates & complains about. Thick skin, I guess – but I also have had marvelous results doing exactly what you did (not the rant, although occasionally its the very thing…) – you guessed at what made his presentation make sense to HIM, and checked it out with him – powerful, useful stuff, patients LOVE it as long as you’re humble about it & don’t assume things. Keep it up, it gets easier with practice (which, hopefully, you won’t get too much of! Tough learning curve there..)
One other tip – check out Dale Carnegie (Making Friends & Influencing People) – it shows that people skills are hardly innate, and are quite trainable. Give it a chance – its a very down-to-earth, practical resource for ANYONE who works with people.

I do agree with all the ideas you have presented in your post. They’re very convincing and will certainly work. Still, the posts are very short for newbies. Could you please extend them a little from next time? Thanks for the post.

I signed the petition. It feels good and is a first step, but radical action will be required to achieve its goals.swtor credits
