The process of reporting suspicious activity may vary depending on the healthcare facility's policies and procedures. Generally, it involves the following steps:
1. Document the activity: Keep detailed notes of what you observed, including dates, times, and the nature of the suspicious behavior. 2. Report to your supervisor: Inform your immediate supervisor or the designated person in charge of handling such reports. 3. Follow the chain of command: Ensure that you follow the facility's reporting protocol, which may include notifying the security department or risk management. 4. Maintain confidentiality: Protect the confidentiality of the individuals involved while making the report. Avoid discussing the matter with colleagues unless necessary. 5. Follow up: Ensure that the report has been received and that appropriate actions are being taken.
