ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Nurses! You Need this book! pick up a copy of "Chart Like a Lawyer" here: https://amzn.to/4guzGvz

We are reading some of the wildest things nurses and doctors have actually put in patient charts, from unhinged triage notes and direct patient quotes to dictation disasters, copy and paste mistakes, questionable physician comments, and truly chaotic documentation. Then it gets a little too real when we start questioning our own charting, how much nurses should actually document, and what happens when that medical record becomes legal evidence.
