Cardiac auscultation is a critical part of clinical examination. Stethoscope allows for early detection of numerous important cardiac pathologies and appropriate referral for further management. Improper use of stethoscopes leads to inappropriate referral resulting in unnecessary financial stress or a delay in proper treatment of time-sensitive pathologies like VSD in children. Multiple studies have documented that competency among medical professionals in cardiac auscultation skills is in steady decline and this is due to the ineffective teaching method of cardiac auscultation starting in medical school.
Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of simulated education in cardiac auscultation.

- The Rowan Community Health Center (RCHC) located in Lindenwold, New Jersey, reopened in September of 2019
- Patients come to RCHC for physicals/wellness checks or medical ailments
- Many patients are from underserved communities and may not have a primary care physician or insurance
- Trend in lack of follow up among patients
- o Leads to discontinuity of care
- o Unaware if patients are obtaining their prescribed medications, following up with recommended specialists, or if chief complaints/primary diagnosis are improving
- RCHC’s Special Projects Department decided to implement a Case Management program to improve patient follow-up and adherence to care
