"If these are your concerns... I'll never get time to finish my nursing notes! Is it legal? Can I use white-out? Can't they make a better form than this? How can I record this family set-up quickly? Weren't computers made for clerks, not nurses? There has to be something wrong with documenting for funding. How do you record the pain level of someone who has a dementing illness? Who walks down critical pathways? What happens if a home health record gets lost? How can I document my client's spiritual concerns realistically? Will managed care affect what I write? Is there a culturally appropriate way to document? What is charting by exception? How did nurses document before NANDA?... then this book is for you." - Back cover.
