Answer to Question 1

A
Accurate documentation of supplies and equipment used assists in accurate and timely reimbursement. Your documentation clarifies the type of treatment a patient receives and supports reimbursement to the health care agency. None of the other options had equipment or supplies listed. Avoid using generalized, empty phrases such as status unchanged or had a good day. Do not enter personal opinionsstating that the patient is cooperative is a personal opinion and should be avoided. Finally, patient had no complaints is a critical comment about the patient and if charted can be used as evidence of nonprofessional behavior or poor quality of care.
