Care plan help

Published

Hi,

I think I have mentioned a few times that I come from a very small facility. We were not responsible for updating the care plans. I know this may sound crazy to many of you, but that's how it was. We wrote any changes in a MDS book and either the MDS nurse or the Director updated the care plans. So, now I am going to a huge facility and of course I am going to update the care plans....how the heck do I do this?? Say if someone is no longer able to stand and pivot for transfers and I got an order for a sit and stand. Do I just write , "9/17/2009 Patient to use sit and stand for all transfers" ? Is there any website or books that could help me with careplans?

Daytonite, pre-printed care plan??? can you please show us an example? I think that sounds so genius!!! hehe. But then does your facility allow that?
