Writing out the SBAR for the oncoming shiftRating: (votes: 4) I am sure I will face my head nurse with this matter this week. 90% of the nurses on my floor have less than 2yrs experience to include me. I feel that we are seriously setting them up for failure if they expect me to write out SBAR notes for them. I was taught my experienced RN's and my instructors to give SBAR but also to take notes or have a "brain sheet" that works for me so I don't miss telling the oncoming shift or MD's anything about my Pt. Any comments / advice would be greatly appreciated. I worked on a floor once that required you to write out a brief 1 page summary report. I hated it because you still had to give verbal, so I never felt like it saved anytime at shift change. For some reason though all the other nurses loved it and I was the odd man out. I'd rather have verbal report any day and jot down my own notes Comment:
I agree. Giving verbal report is much more effective. Writing is best saved for good/accurate charting. I prefer verbal report too!
