KeithRN’s Clinical Reasoning Case Studies
KeithRN case studies are time-saving tools that make it easy to deliver meaningful learning experiences that engage students as active participants in their learning.
Each Clinical Reasoning Case Study uses a consistent framework of open-ended questions requiring rationale for decision-making. Faculty can then evaluate how the student applied the clinical judgment process in different patient scenarios.

- Every case study uses the same clinical reasoning questions with repetition to reinforce and transfer clinical reasoning to practice.
- Flexible. Can be used in class, clinical post-conference, or simulation.
- Varying levels of complexity to adapt learning with fundamental to advanced students.
