Nursing Shift Change Reporting Tool

By Amy Lorenz posted 05-21-2021 07:23

  
Good Morning,

Currently, our nurses do not have a tool in EPIC to report out during shift change and/or patient transition from the ECC to the floor, Floor to ICU (or transition to a different level of care).  Our only means of reporting out is a verbal report.  I am interested in learning if anyone has built in EPIC or another system a screen that serves as a living document for shift change or patient transition to a different floor?  I am finding we are experiencing Sepsis fall outs due to possible lack of or miscommunication of open/pending tasks for the 3hr and 6hr bundles.

I welcome any suggestions!

Thanks,
