Using a simulated client that you have access to, usually the same volunteer you are using for your physical assessments/practice, conduct a health history and review of systems (ROS) interview per the guidance in Chapter 1 of your book. Conduct the health history and review of systems interview with cultural humility (Ball, Dains, Flynn, Solomon, & Stewart, 2015, pp. 21-29). You may want to use the documentation format on pages 621 to 624 to guide your interview, as the Problem-Oriented Medical Record is the format you will be using for document.
