1 LTC Resources LLC LTC Resources LLC Proof that care was given GAPS or lack of follow-up leads to questions of creditability and or accuracy Must be legible LTC Documentation is unique Documentation by Exception Specific State of Iowa (Chapter 58) requirements PRN s must state dose, why given and response LTC Resources LLC Why Document? LTC Resources LLC
2 More documentation is not necessarily better! LTC Resources LLC What is the purpose of this entry? Have I communicated clearly to other team members? Does this note satisfy its intended purpose? Not just resident status and clinical findings LTC Resources LLC To prove that you have met the professional responsibilities as a nurse or long term care staff member To document what you did and did not do for a resident LTC Resources LLC
3 Gather information and be prepared to chart. Never chart just because you think you need to write something. Read the previous entry before charting. Remember this is a legal document. LTC Resources LLC All components of the nursing process The resident s own words What your senses tell you Professional judgment Verbal and clinical responses Limit use of abbreviations and know your facility approved list LTC Resources LLC Adherence to Nurse Practice Acts Iowa Administrative Code 655, Chapter 6 Accountability Proper nursing documentation provides evidence that the nurse has acted as required or ordered. Must demonstrate accountability by complying with the documentation requirements established by the health care facility, professional organizations, and state law. LTC Resources LLC
4 Iowa Board of Nursing Governing agency Rules require RN or LPN to clearly identify to direct patient care their licensure Professional Nurses are accountable to: Obligated to answer for one s acts, including the act of supervision Public Other professionals LTC Resources LLC Iowa Administrative Code 655 Chapter 6 6.1(152) Minimum standards Utilize the nursing process Nursing assessment about health status Formulation of nursing diagnosis Planning of care Interventions implemented to implement plan of care Evaluation LTC Resources LLC Respect rights Respect confidentiality Legal implications of accountability Perform or supervise functions as RN Assign staff Using professional judgment Supervising Supervising, overall responsibility, delegation, and determination that care provided is adequate and delivered appropriately. Executing regimen prescribed by physician Wearing identification which identifies you as RN-NAME TAG LTC Resources LLC
5 Accountability includes but need not be limited to the following: Performing and supervising persons performing those activities and functions which require the knowledge and skill level currently ascribed to the nurse and seeking assistance when activities and functions are beyond the licensee s scope of preparation LTC Resources LLC Don t need to write down everything Skillfully choose words and phrases to describe an event Strive for the best description possible NO recognized standard for documentation LTC Resources LLC Chart in chronological order Tell what the resident s needs were, the care and services provided and the outcome Write so others can read your entry Useless if others cannot read what you wrote Time and date all entries Key is time frame between observations and assessment of a problem and the interventions LTC Resources LLC
6 Use only truthful, accurate information Factual data from observation, assessment, medical history, physician s progress notes, and other sources Only subjective info-what the resident says Use only standard abbreviations Facility must have a printed, approved copy Document, immediately after the observation, assessment, treatment or event Limit late entries, use only when necessary LTC Resources LLC Not one perfect FORMAT! Select what is best for your facility Become comfortable with the style Limit subjective information to what the resident says LTC Resources LLC Avoid assumptions or your personal opinions Very self centered and very prejudice Do not chart for others Your signature certified that you actually assessed, observed, and delivered Do not use chart to assign blame or settle disputes LTC Resources LLC
7 Not a place for staff issues Follow chain of command to address staffing issues or incompetence of staff Do not refer to risk management efforts Incident report completed Do not try to cover up anything Do not leave blanks to fill in later Do not leave space for someone else LTC Resources LLC Do not back date Do not add to previously written notes Do not write over dates Do not wait until the end of the shift when everything has to be done from memory LTC Resources LLC Ask for assistance: Get input from others that were present at the time Consult with your Director of Nursing Follow specific policies of your facility LTC Resources LLC
8 Be sure that your critical thinking gets from the bedside to the chart Resident complains of pain in R shoulder, No visible signs of injury. Will monitor pain intensity after medication. Motrin 800 mg given per order for shoulder pain. T, P R, BP. Doesn t address: How much pain Any limitations to ROM LTC Resources LLC Purposeful, outcome directed thinking Driven by resident needs Based on principles of nursing process Requires specific knowledge, skills, and experience Guided by professional standards Is constantly reevaluating, self-correcting, and striving to improve LTC Resources LLC Most frequent adverse event in long term care Nursing home placement doesn t guarantee that people will not fall Documentation is key here LTC Resources LLC
9 Less is often best Tell the whole story Be concise Limited to the event State facts objectively DO NOT try to rationalize or explain why the event occurred Avoid an opinion on the outcome LTC Resources LLC Poor documentation Resident fell out of bed, probably trying to turn on the TV by herself. Vitals ok, ROM done, no injury Improved documentation Resident observed on floor by bed, upright sitting position. Stated did not know what happened. Stated she was not in any pain. ROM in all extremities w/o complaint of discomfort. T 98.8, BP , R 86, R 22. No visible signs of injury. Pupils equal, reactive to light. Nightlight on in room, call light attached to bed. Daughter Sally notified, and physician notified of assessment data and no visible signs of injury. Dr. Jones states No orders at this time. LTC Resources LLC Document the facts only Do not give your opinion as to how the event could have occurred Document your assessment in detail Include all interactions and resulting actions taken to care for the resident Document full conversions with the physicians on your assessment, your interactions, and any orders Document contacts with family and significant conversations LTC Resources LLC
10 Be clear on charting what type Not all areas are pressure Visible assessment must be done on admission, return from hospital, and any time resident gone from facility more than several hours Include condition that predispose a resident to skin problems LTC Resources LLC Often helpful to follow progress of wound Be sure to follow facility policy If your policy is weekly, must be done weekly Standard of Practice-at least weekly Medicare documentation-suggest each dressing change or at least daily if more frequent dressing changes Have ALL disciplines use that diagnosis in documentation LTC Resources LLC Isn t limited to pressure or stasis ulcers Include: Skin tears Bruises Surgical sites Lacerations Any area that is red LTC Resources LLC
11 Elopement and wandered are not interchangeable Have a definition of each Document using this definition consistently Elopement isn t each time the door alarm sounds from the Wanderguard LTC Resources LLC Differs for day to day documentation and the MDS MDS has specific criteria of what is a significant change of condition Document monitoring of change of condition without using the words will monitor Document baseline and the change Document physician notification of abnormal assessment findings LTC Resources LLC Assessment should include: Vital signs Lung sounds Neuro check Cognitive Status Functional Status Pain/Discomfort Chart Review LTC Resources LLC
12 Review medical record for the following: Abnormal lab values Medication changes Changes in daily routine Observations Recent change in weight LTC Resources LLC Don t just chart phone calls Include family visit and your exchange of information Document date, time, and whom notified Indicate what information you relayed and the response from the person notified Actual time family and physician called is key in relation to the event LTC Resources LLC When charting: Is the information for other caregivers for continuity of care? If so, do they understand what you wrote. Does it call for you to take action? Does it require others to take action? Is it a special focus entry? LTC Resources LLC
13 Will monitor Will observe MD aware Will follow-up 7-3 will call MD Appears Reassured Routine, same, common Likely LTC Resources LLC Avoid value judgments in medical memos You might not have all the information Does my note imply negligence? Does the note blame others? No personal opinion of resident behavior Prejudicial labeling Acting nutty, mean and hateful Opposing versions of an event Often occurs when the previous entry isn t read first LTC Resources LLC Clarity Conciseness Consistency LTC Resources LLC
14 When writing nursing summaries, be sure to address all specific resident problems noted in the plan of care When writing progress notes, confirm that the resident s progress is being evaluated and reevaluated continually in relation to the goals or outcomes defined in the plan of care. If goals aren t met, also address. Any additional actions should be described and documented. LTC Resources LLC Record transfer and discharges according to facility protocol Be sure to report and document any change in resident s condition to physician and family Document any follow-up interventions or other measures in response to a reported change in condition Keep a record in your notes of all visits and phone calls about the resident from family or friends LTC Resources LLC If an incident involving the resident occurs, such as fall or a treatment error, be sure to maintain follow-up documentation for at least 48 hours after the event. Ensure the records for newly admitted residents are maintained in a thorough and detailed manner. Frequency determined by facility. Most at least q shift hours. Document in detail to support reimbursement-medicare and Medicaid. LTC Resources LLC
