Report to the Recovery Nurse

Captions available

The idea

When the patient reaches the recovery area, the surgical team gives a structured handoff report to the recovery nurse.

In practice

It covers the patient, the surgery and any complications, anesthesia, drains and dressings, vital signs, fluids, medications, and special needs such as allergies.

Where people slip

Structured formats help make sure nothing important is left out.
