Answer to Question 2
A, B, E, F
An institution uses the same nursing documentation record because it helps provide continuity of care across various settings by providing organized, pertinent, and thorough health care data on a specific individual. Other units in the hospital and other health care settings have an easier time locating relevant data. Specific health care data are found in one location on a standardized nursing documentation record throughout an institution and provide the basis for standardized patient evaluation across settings. Standardized documents help describe patient acuity levels and thus provide a justification for staffing. Because the same parameters are, or should be, recorded across all units, the standardized documentation record allows for hospital-wide quality evaluations. Nurses must restrict access to a standardized documentation record or any other type of patient record such as laboratory reports, narrative or progress notes, and other documents. A standardized nursing documentation record can reduce a specific type of documentation error but is unlikely to affect the rate of medication errors.
