Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone had made up a report form to either give or take report from on either level 2 or level 3 babies. I start in the unit soon, and would love to see what other people are doing. Thanks so much!

Re: Report Form

The best report form is one that follows your train of thought. Write info down as you get report and figure out what works best. I have a very OCD co-worker/friend who made hers on an excell spreadsheet that is about 5x7 and keeps a stack in her back.

I just write down the urgent stuff during report because I can't listen and write.
Then go back and make my list of important things to do. I make boxes for each hour, like a calendar and write what I need to do for that hour in the box, then check it off when I am done. I post it at eye level so i look at it often.
I started this method about 6 months into my practice, and 6 years later it is just habit. I could not survive ECMO without it!
