Nurses can adopt several practices to ensure their documentation is legible:
Handwriting: Write in block letters or print to improve readability. Electronic Health Records (EHRs): Utilize EHRs to eliminate issues related to poor handwriting. Abbreviations: Avoid using uncommon abbreviations that might be misunderstood. Review: Take a moment to review your notes for clarity before finalizing them. Training: Participate in documentation training programs to improve skills.
