Assisting the Provider During an Exam

Captions available

The idea

Medical assistants help providers during examinations by preparing the room, the patient and the equipment.

In practice

That means stocking supplies, positioning and draping the patient, handing instruments as requested, and helping the patient up afterward.

Where people slip

Stay alert to the patient's comfort throughout, not only to the provider's requests.
