The past, family, and social history (PFSH) includes information pertinent to the patient's past medical and surgical history, family history, and social history. This portion of the examination provides an additional resource for the healthcare provider in determining the appropriate evaluation and then management of the patient.

Please review the following instructor created content. It can be viewed as either a Prezi presentation (audio can be turned off or on) or as a PowerPoint presentation: Charting PFSH in the Medical Records (PPT)

If the Prezi does not appear, check to see if a pop up blocker is keeping you from viewing it. Typically, it appears as a shield in the right hand corner by the close button (red "x"). Click on the shield, click on "Load unsafe scripts", click on "Done", and the Prezi will appear.
