• Do not approve/sign off a deficient shift simply to clear it from the system.
• Contact the nurse directly when corrections or clarification are required and follow the issue through to resolution.
• Escalate medication errors, missed treatments, significant changes in condition, or other clinical concerns according to your agency's policies.
• Complete the authorized RN review/sign-off after deficiencies have been resolved.
• Maintain a weekly audit/exception log to identify nurses with repeated documentation problems.
