“A TIME TO BE TAUGHT, A TIME TO LEARN” INSTRUCTIONS FOR TURNING Q 2 HRS 5 Anderson unit wide education (Patients with Braden Scores <19) Step 1 – Go to “Activities/Interventions” on E-Chart. to promote a standard for repositioning and documentation. Each staff member was consoled by a chair of the 5 Anderson Skin Committee. Once the information was reviewed by the chair member with the staff member, the form was signed in acknowledgement of understanding and intended compliance. The forms were then turned into the nurse manger. During monthly audits, if a staff member is found non compliant, they receive a written warning and reeducation. Upon their third warning, their name is reported to the nurse manager. Step 2 – Document activity level under “Activity. ” If we are performing Q 2 hour turns, then “Turn Assist” should be checked. Step 3 – Document number needed to assist in next field. Step 4 – In field labeled “Position, ” either “Supine, ” “Left Lateral, ” or “Right Lateral” must be checked in order for the Q 2 documentation to be valid. These are the only position changes that show moving from one area of pressure to another. NOTE: You may check other boxes in ADDITION to “Supine, ” “Left Lateral, ” or “Right Lateral. ” For example: You may check “Left Lateral” and “High Fowler” if it applies and this would be acceptable since one of the three positions for position change was documented. “High Fowler” by itself is not acceptable. When a person is in a chair, specialty bed or cardiac chair, the same guidelines apply to positioning and the patient must be moved from one position to another q 1 hr. When a patient is in a Clinitron bed, we must document turning head from one side to another as well. Please also make sure to document if power on, heel relief on and how many side rails are up. Turns should be documented on the odd hours and performed by the NA. If the NA needs help turning, please contact the RN or 2 nd NA if there is one that day. I, ______________, have read and understand the above expectations regarding q 2 hour turning. Date : _______________________ Signature: _____________________ Instructor Signature: ________________
