What is expected of a trainee by Day 2 regarding patient tracking?

By Day 2 of training, a trainee is expected to begin tracking patients. This indicates that the focus is on initiating the practical application of skills learned in the first day of training. At this stage, the trainee is typically still becoming familiar with the processes, so they are not expected to have fully mastered the skill or be able to track all patients independently. Starting the tracking process allows them to gain hands-on experience and develop confidence as they practice the skills necessary for effective patient management.

Other options imply a level of proficiency or completion that is beyond what is reasonable for someone still in the early stages of their training. Thus, the expectation is to start the tracking process rather than perform it fully or observe others without any initial involvement. This foundational step is crucial for building the trainee's competence in patient tracking over time.
