Placing Patient Information

Placing patient information on a chart is a very important aspect of MA's. MA's should try to enter patient information without a mistake. If a mistake occurs, then the MA or the nurse should draw one straight line and write their first and last initial names next to it. After that wright the correct information next to the line. In this case when we look at some don't do , first don't use a white-out to correct the mistakes , don't make multiple cross-outs, and never throw out a piece of information that will indicate we are trying to hide something.
