I work as an Admissions Nurse for a small hospice in an area where there is ferocious competition between the local hospices. I was told recently by one of the nursing homes we have patients in that the nurses there don't like to work with our hospice because 'you're the only one that won't write med orders out on our forms or chart in our EMR." Whaaaaaaaat? Of course, I chart extensively on my hospice agency EMRs and make sure meds are written on agency medication forms.... because I work for the hospice agency, not the nursing home. As I understand it, it's not legal for a hospice nurse to write orders on nursing home (or any other facility) forms. I'd risk my license if I did this, and the nursing home would face fines and possibly a suspended license if they were audited and it was found that the unit nurse was allowing the hospice nurse to be doing this. Am I crazy? Has anyone else gotten this feeback? What's the best response?
