CASE STUDY 3: Focused Ear Exam Martha brings her 11-year old grandson, James, to your clinic to have his right ear checked. He has complained to her about a mild earache for the past 2 days. His grandmother believes that he feels warm but did not verify this with a thermometer. James states that the pain was worse while he was falling asleep and that it was harder for him to hear. When you begin basic assessments, you notice that James has a prominent tan. When you ask him how he's been spending his summer, James responds that he's been spending a lot of time in the pool. · RUBRIC Excellent Good Fair Poor Using the Episodic/Focused SOAP Template: · Create documentation or an episodic/focused note in SOAP format about the patient in the case study to which you were assigned. · Provide evidence from the literature to support diagnostic tests that would be appropriate for your case. 45 (45%) - 50 (50%) The response clearly, accurately, and thoroughly follows the SOAP format to document the patient in the assigned case study.
