Any samples of report sheets?

I don't know of any actual resource for this...I always made my own....though I'm in psych ER now so I don't use them anymore. The set up is different but I did use one everyday on inpatient. I, unfortunately, don't have it on my computer any longer as it's been a long time. I always found I was pretty OCD about having my sheets my way....with the info I needed....I am happy to help if you don't find anyone with one they can e-mail ya or something....if you are not computer savey with that kind thing.

Thanks for responding...I'd appreciate any suggestions you could offer. Looking to have some kind of formatt to capture most common data entered on the report sheet each shift. Haven't been able to come up with anything on the internet.

It would depend on the type of facility you're in.

short - medium or long term

acute or chronic

do you happen to have any psy cheat sheets?

What kind of sheets???

I am a new nurse in a short term acute MH facility which is part of a large hospital. The following is how I give report:

Pt name / Room # / Dx / why and how pt came to facility

Report any SI, HI, Auditory/Visual Hallucinations. If positive SI or HI - do they have a plan? Any past attempts?

Pt behavior and my assessment including pain

How pt is responding to milieu and any safety issues

Med compliance and what PRN meds are ordered and what pt has used during my shift and the results

Any pertinent orders that need to be addressed or followed up on as well as pt goals that need to be monitored

I keep my report as brief and to the point as I can possible.

Hope this helps;)
