When there is a concern about patient care such as orders written, or change in patient condition it is to be brought to the attention of the attending physician. If unable to reach the physician, unresolved concerns remain, or concerns are not addressed, utilize the chain of command as outlined in the policy. In the event the responsible clinical manager/communicator or nursing administrator determines the established time frames for physician contact may inhibit effective patient care, he/she may override these and personally proceed with contacting the medical administrator on-call. Qualified Personnel: Sarasota Memorial Hospital personnel who are licensed, registered and/or certified in a health care profession. Contacting Physician STAT: The attending physician is to be contacted (by using pager, office number, mobile phone, home phone if available or answering service) under the following STAT situations (includes, but is not limited to, these situations).

When qualified personnel encounter an illegible or incomplete order, or one that in his/her judgment could be harmful to the patient, he/she has an obligation to contact the physician who wrote the order and ascertain what was intended 1.

If the Medical Administrator on-call does not respond in 15 minutes, repeat call to x3911 (this call can be made a maximum of two times, not to exceed 30 minutes). If unable to contact the Medical Administrator on-call after 30 minutes, call the Nursing Supervision/flow coordinator to utilize the other contact numbers for administrative support. Continue to page the attending physician even after calling the Medical Administrator on-call. a. If after contacting the physician, qualified personnel question the order, there still remain issues, or there are questions about orders received, he/she should contact their immediate supervisor (communicator/clinical manager/nursing supervision) for assistance/intervention. b.

An employee s first responsibility when concerned over the progress of a patient is to bring the matter to the attention of the attending physician. When satisfaction is not obtained, he/she must follow the appropriate chain of command as outlined. 2. When qualified personnel encounter an illegible, unclear, or incomplete order, or one that in his/her judgment could be harmful to the patient, he/she has an obligation to contact the physician who wrote the order and ascertain what was intended. 3. If personnel encounter a situation where they feel patient safety may be compromised due to such issues as: lack of training/experience, or inability to care for patients, they need to bring their concerns to the attention of their immediate supervisor (clinical manager, communicator, director) and follow the chain of command as indicated. 4. An Occurrence Report should be completed describing the event. RESPONSIBILITY: 1. It will be the responsibility of all clinical personnel to adhere to this policy. 2.
