Describe the importance of developing a personal medical notebook and note its use, advantages, and disadvantages
Health professionals should consider keeping a personal medical notebook where they can chart everything involved with each patient's treatment, where they can brainstorm problems, and where they can include their subjective experiences and express their own emotional and intellectual responses. A personal notebook may help the dietitian to cope with some stress and anxiety of the job as well as remember important information that needs to be included when charting. A disadvantage is that the notebook may contain personal information and the clinician must keep it safe to protect patient confidentiality.
