In terms of HIPAA: Can a nurse who was the primary care nurse for a patient that expired check their charting afterwards ? During code events, it’s very stressful and I’m wondering if checking the EmR after is allowed to make sure you charted Everything correctly. For example It’s difficult to write a verbal order when the patient is coding in front of you and you are taking care of the patient. You can’t do two things at once.
