Use of Technology in Nursing

by

I agree with the person who said much of nursing notes and documentation not being looked at by doctors. It seems like a lot of our charting is overlooked or not even looked at period. It seems that it should be a lot safer and practical for everything to be computerized, including medication reconciliation sheets, but it is often not checked carefully and errors do occur because time is not taken to look over the notes and information collected by the nurse. It is true that nurses are responsible for more and more paperwork or charting, which takes more and more time away from our bedside care. Even though the physicians do not look at my charting, it is important to chart thoroughly and diligently because it can and will be looked at in the event of a lawsuit or legal action.
