I am so sick of paper work.The paper trail that develops when an incident form is written is mindboggling .From progress notes to phone calls to faxes to care plans.Then there is reviewing within a certain time frame to see if issue is resolved or further adjustments are required.And so it goes.No wonder some dont report incidents.
Know the feeling! As much as we all detest paper work it is necessary. We may not be able to control the amount of paper work required but we can control our attitude to it. Have the occassional vent and then get on with dealing with it - no point in letting it get to you.
