Practice Support Tool Profile this Month
Documentation Guidelines for Nurses
April’s practice support tool is the Documentation Guidelines for Nurses, which helps LPNs, RNs, and NPs meet their standards of practice related to documentation. Nursing documentation is a vital component of safe, ethical, and effective nursing practice. This document describes nurses’ accountability and the expectations for documentation in all practice settings, regardless of the documentation method or storage.
