I set it aside from the nurses’ note. We have a
separate section in our charts for mds/ care plans. I place it directly in
front of the mds so it is accessible easily to anyone reviewing the form.

Do you

Just wanted to say thanks to someone
out there on this discussion group that submitted the basis of this form.
I took a form labeled nurses’ notes and expounded to make it mine for my
NAC notes. I do these with 5 day or 14 day, adm, annual, significant
change. I then use the update areas to write any changes that occur since
the last assessment. In the additional comments line, I write (if the
resident is on med a) what they are being skilled for. I used to write a long-hand
note, but this has really saved me time and effort. I copy my updates to
the back of the form which takes up less chart space.
Could whoever sent out the basis of
this form in nurses’ notes, please email me privately at [EMAIL PROTECTED] so I can
say thanks.
