Re: surveyors in building--yellow highlighter

There is no requirement that the highlighter be "copyable" unless you are handing out copies to staff to use during the shift. In that case I could see why the surveyor expressed some concern. Even so, I don't think they will cite you for it.   Nathan ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 02, 2004 11:32 AM Subject: Re: surveyors in building--yellow highlighter In a message dated 3/2/2004 1:08:20 PM Eastern Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: One of the surveyors just left my office. she is unhappy that we use yellow highlighter when we update the care plan since it won't copy.  She feels we should use another color. as long as I have been doing this we have always used a highlighter to update information that is correct.  We feel like if we line it out we are saying it was not correct at all.  Anyone do anything differently?
