NG-2 CLINICAL DECISION MAKING AND PATIENT SAFETY
Strengthen the clinical judgment needed to make safe, defensible decisions in everyday chiropractic practice.
NG-2 is designed for new and early-career chiropractors transitioning from supervised clinical training to greater professional independence. It focuses on recognizing when a presentation is appropriate for care—and, just as importantly, when the clinical picture requires further investigation, modification of care, co-management, or referral.
Key topics include: clinical decision-making; risk assessment and patient safety; red and yellow flags; diagnostic uncertainty; recognizing changing or unexpected presentations; treatment precautions and contraindications; monitoring response to care; escalation and referral decisions; and documenting clinical reasoning.
Think Clinically. Recognize Risk. Make Safer Decisions.
