Hi Tammy, Could you share your hand-off form? Also, Wondering if it is a separate form or integrated with other hand-off tool.

She first starts the triage process to secure a bed for the patient. She then goes to ED to facilitate and ensure the bundle components are implemented. We also have a handoff form that the ED staff use to help with the bundle components. This form goes with the patient to the unit. The receiving nurse then takes this form and reviews the chart to make sure nothing is missed. This form also serves as a great handoff tool for oncoming shift.
