The Logbook is a tool to track your experiences and plan for future learning.
Logbooks provide a central place to review your patient encounters:
- What conditions or procedures have you worked with?
- At what level of independence are you performing the tasks?
- What is the environment you are working in?
- Goals you have for future learning:
- What do you want to learn more about?
- What skill do you want to practice?
