woknblues 447 Posts Mar 23, 2009 Thanks for all of these great ideas. I use an index card type arrangement for now, all handwritten. I really like the "circle it" preprinted idea, and will include in my next round of cards... I like the index cards though. Good old 3X5s.

Haven't started using my brain sheet but I think it incorporates what the other nurses are doing. It prints out on legal paper with a front and back. Front is in SBAR style; back is sectioned to write notes w/a water mark of Mother Teresa to remind me it's all about the patient. I will try to attach them. Hope they help. :heartbeatPS I'm on a Coronary Care Unit! Yippeee!PPSS: Darn. I don't know how to attach file in this messaging system. If you PM me with your email I'll send you the attachments in word. Good luck.Hi, I'd love a copy of your brain. Click above on the email icon to send it. thanks!
Beverage 95 Posts Specializes in Cardiac/Telemetry. May 21, 2009 I have a "brain" sheet I attach to front of cardex, then fold cardex and cut corners that I carry for my 4 pts. I also have a meds brain I tape to my MARS binder so I don't miss any meds t/o day. I make notes on the meds brain for follow up like, rm 63, asa missing, K+ scale, collect UA, drsg change...For some reason I am unable to upload them so e-mail me and I can send. These are MS Word & Excel files.
