CNA assignment flow sheets

[ashalx4]

I was hoping that someone out there had a CNA flow sheet that worked for them and would be willing to share their findings with me.

The info on ours is wrong about 50% of the time.

I wish I could somehow show you the ones that we get for our assignments, but I don't have a blank one. But, we just recently stopped using separate assignment sheets and now use the SAME ones the RNs use, because our assignment sheets were most always incomplete or incorrect/missing information. It's actually working SO much better because we all have all the information we need to provide patient care. I am sure I'm forgetting something, but if I recall, here's what our sheets contain:

Patients name/account number

Diagnosis

Activity (OOB, BR, Turn & position, etc)

Diet (Full, clr, feed, set-up, etc)

Bath (complete, partial, set-up, etc)

IV (PRN, etc.)

Vital signs (qshift, q4, q6, etc)

Blood sugar (q4, q6, etc)

Bathroom (foley, commode, bathroom, bedpan, etc)

Drains (JP, ostomies, etc.)

Comments (abnormals, lab results, etc.)

HOpe that helps you a little bit. LIke I said, I'm sure I forgot something, but feel free to ask me any questions. This is working really a lot better for us...
