Episode Synopsis

In today's episode, I dive into a critical topic that NP school doesn't fully prepare you for - diagnostic errors in clinical practice. Unlike exams where wrong answers only affect your grade, real-world diagnostic mistakes can impact patient outcomes.   Together with my returning guest Courtney, we explore the different types of diagnostic errors and practical strategies to prevent them. Whether it's maintaining an open mind or advocating for your patient, we provide actionable steps for both new and experienced NPs.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://blog.npreviews.com/prevent-diagnostic-errors-np-practice-essential-strategies/   Follow us on Instagram: instagram.com/smnpreviewsofficial
