Q

How do you introduce yourself to the patients?

A
  • Hello my name is Robert Ingram
  • I am a 2nd year medical student at Imperial College London
  • I was hoping to talk to you about why you are here today
  • It should only take about 10 minutes of your time
  • If the doctor needs you we can end the conversation - I won’t keep you
  • Would that be okay with you?
  • *wash hands
  • Can I clarify your name and DOB please?
