Notify the Provider of Abnormalities

Captions available

The idea

Any abnormality on a tracing, and any symptom the patient reports, goes to the provider promptly.

In practice

Give the provider the tracing, note anything you did to fix artifact, and pass on what the patient told you, in the patient's words.

Where people slip

Do not wait to batch tracings at the end of the morning when something looks abnormal.
