Documentation: Best Practices

In today’s highly litigious society, timely, accurate and appropriate care
documentation is critical to the delivery of quality care. This class looks at how and
when we should capture client/patient care information from admission to discharge,
including diagnoses, treatment and resources used during their care. When
the documentation is complete, detailed, and accurate, it prevents ambiguity, and
improves communication between healthcare providers and may be your only shield to
legal suits. Lastly, specific practical best practice guidelines are recommended as part
of a broader risk management program of any individual health care worker or
organization. This class can be used for professional continuing education by
Registered Nurses and Licensed Practical Nurses
