You have come to the end of a very long and busy twelve-hour shift, and after giving report to the on-coming nurse you ask her to leave space for you in the client’s chart. You tell the nurse you plan on to finishing your charting in the morning. What would be the on-coming nurse’s most appropriate response to you?
  1. “I know you are tired, but it is your professional responsibility to complete your charting before you go home.”
  2. “Why don’t you leave me your notes and I will do the charting for you?”
  3. “If you leave without charting, I will report you to the supervisor.”
  4. “We are all tired, but you can’t leave until you’re done.”
Explanation
Answer: A - A twelve-hour shift can easily become much longer, but charting is a professional responsibility. It must be completed before you leave work. The other responses are inappropriate and not supportive of one’s peers.
