Say you have to chart a complete assessment q2h...busy at 4 pm, catching up on charting at 6 pm...so charting for both 4 pm and 6pm at the same time...but also "precharting" the 8 pm assessment with the intention of going back if anything changes.
Couple questions -
1. Do you see nurses do this a lot? Is it not a big deal?
2. This is computerized charting...sure you can change the time to 8 pm, but if the chart is audited, they could see you did the 8 pm charting at 6 pm, right?
Me - nursing student in last semester...I understand there is a real world vs nclex world, but wondering where this falls.
Thank you
