1. Observation: Continual monitoring of the patient's condition. 2. Documentation: Accurate and detailed recording of observations in the patient's medical record. 3. Communication: Immediate verbal or electronic communication to the appropriate healthcare provider, such as a physician or nurse practitioner. 4. Follow-Up: Ensuring that the reported changes are addressed and that there is follow-up on the patient's response to any interventions.
