Employers groups crave the data, accreditation organizations require it, and every discipline in health care is trying to measure its own clinical outcomes. Yet no matter what the measurement tool, the results can only be as good as the information they’re based on. That often comes down to the quality of documentation in the patient’s chart. To borrow a phrase from the computer industry: garbage in, garbage out." http://www.nurseweek.com/features/98-3/chart.html ****************************************************** DynaWise Charts:"DynaWise Charts is an easy to use, inexpensive solution to your control charting needs.

Beyond the accident report in personal injury cases, what did the injured party actually endure and why were pain medications withheld until after the patient was admitted to the hospital? After the fact, each divorcing parent can usually find an expert to hire who will testify that he/she is the better parent, but who was actually the primary caregiver before divorce became a consideration?" http://www.shirleyfitzgerald.com/unlocking.html#unlock ****************************************************** ****************************************************** ****************************************************** If your website is not listed here, we encourage you to submit it: Add Your Website/URL, please note, you do not have to install the nursingtop10.com linking code, to be listed.

After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses." Nurses Station P.O.
