Bad sbar?

This is the 2nd time I was called from charge office because someone reported me from day shift rn that my report is not good. Its not organized and missing the key points. I questioned them how is it possible? I have a sbar sheet? my manager even told me the way i report is not icu standard. I feel like theyre kinda warning. I need help??

    Yes, you are being warned. I would suggest that you go back to your manager and request that you be assigned a preceptor to go over how to do a hand over that is "ICU standard". You should also carefully listen to how hand over is given to you and make sure you are using the same format and covering the same points when you hand over.

    SBAR is generally not used during report, but rather during a specific situation requiring intervention. Report covers a LOT more than any SBAR would be able to. If your patient has numerous conditions, which in the ICU probably is the case, how on earth would you put that into an SBAR? You would have to have seven or eight SBARs to cover each condition individually and that would take forever.

    You need coaching. Find someone on your unit that your management states is a good representation of giving good report and ask them to help you.
