Who this sheet is for

For nurse techs, patient care techs and nursing assistants who carry a whole hallway. One line per patient, eight patients on one landscape page.

Fill each line in report: room, name and age, diet, how the patient gets out of bed, toileting, how often vitals and blood sugars are due, what to track (intake and output, weight, turns, baths) and precautions. Circle the option that applies rather than writing it out.

The last column is for what the nurse asked you to report right away for that patient. The strip at the bottom lists general reasons to find the nurse now. Your unit's own policy comes first.

Every sheet here prints on one US Letter page and comes as a free PDF with no sign-up. It is blank working paper, not a medical record: shred it at the end of the shift. Compare all the sheets or build your own layout.
