As an LNC, you may find yourself called to observe an independent medical examination. This may be ordered by either the plaintiff or the defense. Stormy Green, an LNC, describes her experiences as an observer and provides some essential recommendations for anyone who has assumed or would like to assume that role.

The observer needs much preparation for her work. She may have to look up various medical conditions for which the physician will be testing. Stormy recommends consulting the internet and watching YouTube videos of procedures. This helps to determine whether the doctor has used them correctly.

The observer will ideally meet the plaintiff prior to the exam. This way she can get a feel for what the person’s like and establish rapport. It’s important to tell the plaintiff to speak if he or she experiences pain. The observer also needs to note facial or other physical expressions of pain.

Stormy emphasizes the importance of recording times, such as when the various parties involved in the examination enter the room. It’s vital to include the names and roles of all involved, including instances where an interpreter is used.

Be sure to study this podcast. It’s full of valuable information about this important LNC pathway.
