Re: NLE and lost cases.. what to do?
I had some lost cases once... it wasn't really lost though... i didn't copy them in the first place... i just went to the Operating Room or Delivery Room... They all have a big logbook which they write the name of the patients, age, other info including the name of the student nurse and the name of the staff nurse and circulating nurse who handled the case. If it's impossible to get the data from OR/DR, i think she should go to the Hospital's Medical Records. She should have the dates in hand and the name of her patient. If she doesn't have those, she would be looking for a needle in a haystack...

And then, if ALL things fail (ugh), request the clinical instructor to let her go on duty, and then start all over again...
