Imagine this…
Jessica – a good nurse who attended a top-notch program with stellar faculty and great internships – was always told, “if you don’t document with detail, you will get in trouble.”
But when Jessica started a new job, she was told “writing much more was a waste of time.”
Jessica didn’t question the unit’s process and thought, “I don’t need to worry about charting; the computer takes care of that for me. If I chart what my unit audits for, I can sleep soundly.”
Two years later…Jessica is sitting at a deposition table, being sworn in to testify.
“What went wrong,” she wonders. “What am I being accused of? How am I supposed to remember any of this? How can this happen to me, a dedicated healthcare provider?!”
If this can happen to Jessica – it can happen to you!
