Hey ED nurses,
I work in the ED for a HUGE hospital system, and administration is stating we are required to complete inpatient charting in addition to ER documentation. (There are two separate documentation systems and we have only been trained on the EDM system.) They specifically want us to do a full admission assessment on patients holding in the ED. Has anyone had experience with this? Does any other ED require their nurses to chart on the inpatient side for holding patients? This is in Texas. Thanks for the insight!
