Re: Too Much Paperwork!
That's a great idea because I just started work as an RN at a new hospital. I have 6 years of experience. I have been there 2 months and I am seriously thinking of quitting because I cannot get my head around all the paperwork. It's terrible! I used to spend 20% of my shift charting and 80% caring for my patients and now it's opposite. And to make things worse half of the nurse on my floor are always "reporting" you for missing 1 form. There is no way to remember it all and I feel like people are always looking over my shoulder. Joint Commission have good intentions, but they are killing the nurse/patient relationship.
