FISDAP Data Collection and Management 4

Question 1

A student is documenting a shift where no patients were encountered. How should this be recorded in FISDAP?

Accepted Answer

Log the shift with zero patient encounters and document hours worked

Answer

Non-patient shifts still count toward clinical hours and must be logged with shift details even when no patient encounters occurred.

Question 2

Which FISDAP feature allows program coordinators to set minimum thresholds that students must achieve before graduation?

Accepted Answer

Benchmark settings

Answer

FISDAP's benchmark settings let coordinators define minimum patient contacts, skill counts, and hours required for program completion.

Question 3

When a student administers oxygen to a patient during a field internship, which FISDAP section should this be documented under?

Accepted Answer

Interventions / treatments

Answer

All treatments and interventions, including oxygen administration, are documented in the interventions/treatments section of the patient encounter record.

Question 4

A program director reviews FISDAP data and notices a student has high skill attempt counts but low preceptor evaluation scores. This discrepancy most likely suggests:

Accepted Answer

High quantity of attempts is not translating to quality performance as observed by preceptors

Answer

Quantity of attempts without corresponding quality scores signals a student who may need targeted remediation to improve competency, not just exposure.

Question 5

In FISDAP, documenting 'refusal of care' for a patient encounter requires the student to record which key data element?

Accepted Answer

That the patient was informed of risks and signed a refusal

Answer

A valid refusal of care requires documentation that the patient was informed of potential consequences and voluntarily declined treatment or transport.
