You chart your assessment, interventions, and response to anything abnormal or anything you intervened on. Pain, wounds, etc. I have been told also by other nurses not to chart so much, but when the Texas Board of Health came to investigate a blood reaction on a pt. they said my charting saved that hospital, and no you don't chart that a patient was sleeping because how do you know that pt. was really asleep..YOU DONT! I chart pt. resting in bed with eyes closed, respirations are even and unlabored, side rails up x2, call light in reach, bed low.

Thank you so much for you reply. That is what I had been hearing abouth the Spending accounts, I am glad they have stopped doing that. I will be applying for there Sept. internships.

I just finished school from LVN-RN and would like to work at one of the Baylor Hospitals. I have heard that they have really bad health insurance. Has anyone else come across this? Thanks Josh:wink2:
