  3. I will discuss module for a topic to principles of record in nursing.
  4. Why did I choose this topic? I chose this topic because it is important for us.
  5. Student needs to know how to record a bit of a patient how important this

  7. So at the end of this presentation the student will
  8. be able to discuss the importance of proper recording and
  9. documentation in the nursing profession and also with certain understanding
  10. of its significance for effective and efficient patient care.
  11. So far the overview,
  12. proper record keeping is an important aspect of a patient care.
  13. A patient record is a permanent document that chronicles a patient care history.
  14. So let's learn by recordkeeping is important in the
  15. principle of record keeping in the nursing profession.
  16. So let's say you love to cook.
  17. One day you come up with a great new way to make you spaghetti sauce.
  18. You add all the right spices and all the right amount and the result is delicious.
  19. But let's say you forgot to write down the recipe
  20. without a record of how you make your fabulous sauce.
  21. You'll never be able to make it again.
  22. Just like a cook needs to keep detailed records about intelligence and
  23. just like a nurse needs to keep detailed records of a patient.
  24. So in this lesson you will learn why proper recordkeeping is
  25. important and the principle that must be followed to ensure proper record
  26. keeping.
  27. Yeah.
  28. So what is
  29. record keeping.
  30. So record keeping is the act of organizing
  31. and documenting information relevant to inpatient treatment.
  32. A record keeping is the act of tracking it person
  33. history.
  34. Hey,
  35. nexus, what is a patient record?
  36. Patient record is the repository of information about a single patient.
  37. This information is generated by health care professionals as a direct result
  38. of interaction with a patient or individuals who have personal knowledge about
  39. this patient.
  40. So next is
  41. the purpose of this record keeping.
  42. A basic purpose of the nursing documentation is the creation
  43. of database in which the patient files are include.
  44. The patient files is kept for many reasons from which the most important ones are.
  45. So the importance of a of a patient
  46. record is a permanent documentation and if we should
  47. care by health care
  48. provider.
  49. Thanks.
  50. While it might feel as if the nurses interpreting
  51. treatment to write down notes.
  52. Patient records are vitality important to the continuing care of
  53. eight
  54. Pay shed. For example, you as a nurse
  55. encountered 20 different patients in one day or in a day
  56. and it's impossible to remember details about each patient you encounter.
  57. So nurse must learn the principle of good record keeping
  58. because this record serve as a history of a client.
  59. Several reveal patterns. Easy
  60. patient progress
  61. guide future care decision
  62. support, financial building
  63. and may even be used as evidence. It's legal issues.
  64. All right.
  65. So next
  66. the principles of record keeping
  67. records should be written as soon as possible after
  68. impatient
  69. encounter. So
  70. we remember when we talk about the importance of
  71. writing down the recipe of your delicious spaghetti.
  72. Sos
  73. let well
  74. let's say you did remember to write down the ingredients.
  75. However the next time you pull out the recipe it was so full of areas or marks,
  76. confusing abbreviations, shot and illegible writing that you couldn't follow it
  77. like a recipe a patient record must be complete
  78. and written carefully to be
  79. useful. So there are jobs either generally generally principles
  80. rather that nurses must follow to ensure the records do there
  81. chop just like what I said that the curd should be written as soon as possible after
  82. a patient encounter because this quick actually make
  83. it more likely that important details aren't forgotten.
  84. Of course picking notes asap doesn't mean they should be rushed.
  85. Take enough time to ensure that all notes are record neatly.
  86. Patient records must be clear in Vorarlberg.
  87. Next.
  88. Mhm.
  89. If you're not happy with the clarity of the note unique,
  90. remember that record should never be altered or destroyed without
  91. proper
  92. authority. So if you do if you did something wrong, do not erase some states. Instead
  93. draw a line to the mistake and then sign and date the
  94. correct shot.
  95. Mhm.
  96. Yeah.
  97. Next is the principle of record writing sooner.
  98. Should develop their own method of expression and forming record writing.
  99. So all nurses have their own kind of methods on how they will still unable to be
  100. um able to be able to memorize the patient recorders remember the patient details.
  101. So records should be written clearly and appropriately.
  102. Yes but like I said earlier it should be neat and clean
  103. for you to understand and for the position or the doctor understand.
  104. The nexus record should compete facts based on observation,
  105. conversation and action.
  106. Um If you are going to interview your patient or
  107. you're going to ask about details about your patient,
  108. what your patients said to you, it should be created in your
  109. record
  110. in your record about the patient. So next like relevant facts and
  111. the recording should be neat, complete and
  112. uniform
  113. saying what I said earlier. It should be neat and clean but it should be
  114. take a take time
  115. and make sure that
  116. it is clear for you to understand and for the doctor to understand.
  117. So record should be written immediately after an interview. This is
  118. true because you might forgot it unless you have this kind of photographic memory.
  119. But
  120. based on my research it was not yet proven
  121. that people us has this kind of photographic memory.
  122. So records are confidential of humans.
  123. It should be
  124. cap and
  125. doctors I knew as a nurse only know the details about the
  126. patient.
  127. So next is
  128. there's just responsibility for record keeping and reporting.
  129. Keep under safe custody of
  130. nurses.
  131. Next no individual ship should be separated.
  132. It should be organized and next not accessible to patients and visitors.
  133. It couldn't be a lab. It's not allowed for any kind of
  134. strangers. Just like you're strangers are not permitted to read
  135. records of your patient unless
  136. the patient asked for the family asked you about it.
  137. Next records are not handed over
  138. to the legal advisory without treatment permission
  139. of the administration without the signature from the doctor or your position.
  140. And then handed carefully.
  141. Do not destroy and then identify with by elite of the patient things. Age admission
  142. number, diagnosis chatterers or legal
  143. issues and never sent outside the
  144. hospital without written administrative permissions.
  145. Okay.
  146. Mhm.
  147. And keep in mind that patient records are confidential.
  148. Therefore,
  149. nurses must maintain the records as
  150. confidential to protect the patient privacy and
  151. rights never leave patients records where they may give you an authorized person.
  152. So summary record keeping is the act of organizing
  153. and document thing information relevant to a patient care.
  154. A patient record is a permanent documentation of a patient care by health care
  155. provider.
  156. This record serve as a history of a client care revealed patterns,
  157. Very patient progress guide future care decision support,
  158. financial building and they might be used as evidence of illegal
  159. issues arise and principles of record include the following records.
  160. The record should be written as soon as possible after a patient encounter.
  161. It must be clear and legible and should
  162. never be altered or destroyed without proper authority.
  163. If you do something wrong. Do not curious mistakes.
  164. Instead draw a line through the mistake and then sign and the correction.
  165. The records needs to include notes on care that was given
  166. any problem that arose and action taken to deal with the
  167. problems document Every patient refused treatment includes the date time,
  168. any signature,
  169. use standard terminology and abbreviations and avoid
  170. vlog statement that are open to interpretation.
  171. So nurses must maintain the records as confidentiality and that's all.
  172. Thank you.
