I'm having difficulty putting my thoughts into words. I have an assignment on writing a nursing note for a skin lesion. If anyone can help me use the right words for documentation I would really appreciate it. Also, if anyone knows any good examples or websites that have examples of how to chart/write nursing notes that would be great too! I really want to learn how to document correctly!
Here is what I know: location of the lesion is on the right antebrachial,the color of the lesion is brown, the size is >1cm (3 cms), it has a symetrical shape, there is discrete distribution, there is no exudate, and i believe it is called a patch (it is a flat birthmark).
If anyone can help me make that sound more like a nurses note, I'd really appreciate it.
