  15. Report sheet

    RN007 replied to RN007's topic in Psychiatric

    I prefer to-the-point face-to-face report but that can take too long in some places. Where I work full time, we talk off the SBAR, which keeps it focused. How, specifically, does your manager want to...

    RN007 replied to Body Reader's topic in General Nursing
