Excellent, one of the best courses I've taken (of over 20). Use of sample forms was very informative. As in-house healthcare counsel, found practice tips outstanding. Would recommend a Part II, by these same speakers, that would take audience through a specific case using actual records (I would underline and box pertinent passages). Could also introduce common abbreviations and explain common assessment tools (e.g., alert x 3 means...).
