The following story in Nurse Leader Insider covers what you need to know about filling in incident reports. To complement that story, we're giving away a free checklist of what to do and what not to do to make sure that you correctly fill out an incident report. In many states, the incident report can be reviewed by the plaintiff's attorney. Therefore, it is important that you and your staff keep in mind that others may read it.
