Nurse Notes not required

The new company is saying that nurse notes aren't required or aren't necessary? As in you could write a note but you don't have to or you shouldn't write a note?

Nursing notes aren't important until something goes wrong and you get sued two years later and can't remember any circumstances.

I think we need a lot more information here (where do you work? what duties are you performing?)… but I have never had a position in which documentation wasn't necessary. When in doubt, check with your licensing office/college of nursing. You need to meet your college's professional standards; otherwise, you put your license at risk. It's the nursing college, not the employer, who determines these professional standards (which may well include documentation requirements). 

Sounds as dodgy as all hell
