I am starting my first adult health clinical rotation on Monday and need serious help establishing goals. My goals - learn as much as I can and pass the course! I just don't think the faculty will buy this! Can anyone share with me what they have used as goals to help spark some ideas?

Thanks!

First, what are some of your ideas?

My ideas may not be yours.

Read your psych book and see if that suggests some things you'd like to learn/observe/practice.

Are these goals for what you need to accomplish during the day? Or, are these things you need to have your patients work on when you're interacting with them?
