Basic Home Health Care Charts

Published

Does anyone have some basic HHC charts, or sites with charts. My definition o f is basic in something with vitals, i&o's, feeding, linen changes, and meds. The adency that I will be working for says that their charting is a part of the patients file, so after I turn it in I won't have access to it, and I can't make copies, so I want my own, ya know just in case something comes up, and I need to back myself up, with my own documentaion.

Thanks.

Sorry I did not mean smuggling records.

No, I am sorry. I am just a little tired this week. My car has been hit twice in one week, I am working 6 days a week , raising two kids and have two college classes I am trying to keep up on. I will get some rest on Sunday and all will be good again. Have a great day !!

Oh I am sorry about your car. That always seemed to set my week off on the wrong foot.

Rest.

Just do what many of my patients do, they get a notebook, and just write in it. Some family's leave me notes in there, or questions, and I answer them, usually only things like "Please order more 4x4's and gloves" and I write "OK", and they usually want me to write down the BP and blood sugar, so they can take the notebook to the doctor with them.

Nothing fancy needed. :)
