Abstract "We begin this preface by emphasizing that the only way to ensure an accurate diagnosis for an individual's health and well-being is through a thorough history and evidence-based health and well-being assessment. Learning to effectively assess the health and well-being of an individual involves integrating skills of history taking, physical examination, and diagnostic decision-making within the context of patient-centered, culturally sensitive, evidence-based clinical practice. The process of teaching and learning assessment is complex. As experienced faculty who have taught assessment and advanced assessment across educational programs, we recognize that health science students who learn evidence-based, valid, reliable assessment techniques and approaches are better prepared to deliver evidence-based, safe, quality clinical care. Student engagement in learning also requires that they understand and appreciate the importance of wellness for their own health and well-being"-- Provided by publisher.
