Chart Auditing and education

Published

What are the policies behind LPNs reviewing RNs charting in Home health and LPNs overseeing RNs education and orientation training? I can't seem to find an answer on my State Board and was curious to know about this.

Sorry for the delayed follow up. I was out of the country and did not have access to internet.

The CNA has been promoted to head of the Education department and is now providing education and feedback on things such as my assessments, what I should be educating patients on (patients she's never met), and how I should be documenting exactly what I have been doing. I by no means lack assessment skills, my assessments are thorough, my follow through with patients and relationship with patients is very good, and my documentation is detailed without going overboard. The entire situation makes me very uncomfortable at this point. Soon she states she will be educating me and providing feedback to me on case managing... which she legally can not do. This is just all crossing the line in my professional opinion.
