NURSING DOCUMENTATION TIPS
Nursing documentation is a HUGE deal in nursing school. I know you're worried about if you're doing it wrong or not, and honestly, you might be making some critical nursing documentation mistakes.
In this video, I'll walk you through 3 nursing documentation tips that you MUST know about in nursing school. These 3 tips are some common nursing documentation errors that I've seen nursing students make, and I don't want you to be one of them.
So, during your nursing school clinicals, make sure you follow these 3 nurse charting rules:
1. ONLY use abbreviations or acronyms that are approved by your nursing school clinical facility. Your nursing documentation is a legal document, and MUST be thorough and clear enough to hold up in a court of law.
2. Follow a pattern with your documentation. Always document the same way every time so you don't forget anything in your nursing documentation.
3. Document right away, as you go. Avoid medication, treatment, and nurse documentation errors when you do your patient charting as you go.
By following these critical nursing documentation tips, you can save yourself a huge headache later by knowing your nursing documentation is thorough and accurate.
