Abstract

Bedside shift report (BSR) can lack standardization and compromise patient safety. A descriptive study was conducted to examine the quality of data identified for the BSR process. Sixteen nurses identified critical information for a BSR based on a simulated case. Three experts evaluated the BSR data identified by the RNs.
