Dr. Reghetti Designs’ Post

When you were in optometry school, how much did you learn about patient education beyond the chair? 🤔 I remember learning about what to *say*🗣 and how to *say it*...but what about those of us who aren't auditory learners? 👉🏼 70% of our patients need education beyond discussion 👈🏼 (read that again! 👀) We're doing our patients a disservice by relying solely on our conversations with them. We're doing our patients *and* our practice a disservice by passing off the responsibility of patient education to third party entities. Let's take ownership over our knowledge and patient care by investing in tailored educational assets that cater to the majority of the population! 👉🏼 https://lnkd.in/g3iewjdV #optometry #optometrist #optometrists #optometristsofinstagram #optometrystudent #optometryschool #optometrystudents #eyecare #eyecarecenter #eyecareprofessionals #eyecareprovider #EyeCareExperts #Eyecareservices #eyecareeverywhere #eyecareprofessionals #eyedoc #eyedocs #eyedoctor #eyedoctors #independenteyecare #ecp #iecp #patienteducation #patienteducationiskey #doctorsofinstagram #healthliteracy #ocularhealthliteracy #caitlinreghettiod #drreghettidesigns

3 weeks into school and my clinical skills in optometry are expanding as I explore this fascinating field. Recently, I’ve learned the value of “Case History” and patient in-take documentation. Throughout the next four years of my optometry school journey, part of my focus will be on: 💎honing my ability to ask open-ended questions 💎swiftly establishing rapport with patients 💎 completing exams in an efficient manner. I invite you to share your insights and experiences on asking probing questions and nurturing the patient-provider relationships. #Optometry #ClinicalSkills #Student #UMSLOptometry #PeerToPeerPractice

👀 Why the College of Optometrists is NOT a ‘Royal College’ when other healthcare professions in the UK are ‘Royal College’? In my personal opinion we should or deserved to be called a ‘Royal College’ not only to keep the consistent with other health care professions royal college but also in the past 20 years optometrists have demonstrated that we are crucial role in primary eye care!
