    Methods of Documentation V: CBE01:23

    Methods of Documentation V: CBE

    Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
    In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...
