Location of patient chart components
The individual charts are kept at each specific bedside along with the tiss sheets. The green sheets are kept on the rounds cart. The completed tiss sheets are kept in a marked binder at the main desk. There is a sheet in the ICMS data collector's binder that has a record of VAP and line sepsis cases. This information is kept and is shared with the charge nurse and Lillian Hall for ongoing quality control.
