I'm practicing an assignment for my class and I figured this was the best place to post a question about it.

I know that it's a discharge summary but I'm completely stumped as to the layout. It doesn't seem to fit the layouts in my books so I don't know what I should do. I don't want to get a bad grade on the assignment and would love to get the format right the first time.

If anybody is willing to, I would love to e-mail the file to you so you can possibly give me an idea?
