4. The provider is preparing to take a health history for a new patient. He takes the patient to a private

time to change, he then comes back in and asks permission to conduct the history. He sits next to the
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
patient at eye level, discreetly observes the patient for any sensory deficits, and asks the patient if he
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
may take brief notes of the conversation. During the conversation, he gives the patient time to answer
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
