nurse shift report

A nurse's shift report is given by a primary nurse to the nurse replacing him or her or by the charge nurse to the nurse who assumes responsibility for continuing patient care.

telemedicine report's benefits

A telemedicine report can link healthcare professionals immediately and enable nurses to receive and give critical information about patients in a timely fashion.

narrative charting

Narrative charting is time-consuming to write and read. In narrative charting, the caregiver must sort through the lengthy notation for specific information that correlates the client's problems with care and progress.

PIE charting method

PIE (Problem, Intervention, and Evaluation) charting method is unique in that it does not develop a separate plan of care. The plan of care is incorporated into the progress notes, which identify problems by number (in the order they are identified).

A nurse is preparing a seminar on the uses of documentation in client records. Which topics should the nurse include in the seminar?

Quality improvement, research, decision analysis, and financial reimbursement are all uses for documentation.

source-oriented method

Source-oriented method is a paper format in which each health care group keeps data on its own separate form. Sections of the record are designated for nurses, physicians, laboratory, x-ray personnel, and so on. Notations are entered chronologically.

consultation, referral, conferring, client education examples

The nurse involving social services in client care best demonstrates a consultation. Sending a client to an orthopedic clinic would best demonstrate a referral. Discussing client care with another nurse best demonstrates conferring. Informing the client about a weight loss program is client education.

problem-oriented method

The problem-oriented method is organized around a client's problems rather than around sources of information. With this method, all health care professionals record information on the same forms. The advantages of this type of record are that the entire health care team works together in identifying a master list of patient problems and contributes collaboratively to the plan of care. Progress notes clearly focus on client problems.

acuity charting forms

Acuity charting forms allow nurses to rank patients as high to low acuity in relation to the patient's condition and need for nursing assistance or intervention.

focus charting method

Focus charting method brings the focus of care back to the client and the client's concerns. Instead of a problem list or list of nursing or medical diagnoses, a focus column is used that incorporates many aspects of a client and client care.

When recording data regarding the client's health record, the nurse mentions the analysis of the subjective and objective data, in addition to detailing the plan for care of the client. Which style of documentation is the nursing implementing?
