    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Informatics
    • Healthcare Quality Improvement
    • Clinical Documentation

    Background:

    • Traditional bedside charting systems often become ritualistic and misaligned with efficient nursing workflows.
    • Existing documentation methods may not adequately capture essential patient information, impacting care quality.
    • Nursing staff are well-positioned to identify inefficiencies in clinical documentation processes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To critically evaluate and redesign bedside charting tools within an orthopaedic nursing setting.
    • To develop a more functional and user-centered clinical documentation system.
    • To assess the impact of charting reform on nursing staff preferences and workflow.

    Main Methods:

    • A multidisciplinary orthopaedic nursing team conducted a thorough review of existing bedside charts.

  • A participatory design approach was used to create a new chart, integrating beneficial aspects of the old system.
  • New, relevant information was incorporated into the redesigned documentation tool.

    • Main Results:

    • The review identified the existing charting system as ritualistic and poorly defined, centered on established work patterns.
    • The newly designed chart was positively received by the nursing staff.
    • Staff expressed a preference for the updated design, indicating improved usability and utility.

    Conclusions:

    • Redesigning clinical documentation at the ward level can lead to significant improvements in charting efficiency and usability.
    • Nursing staff are capable of initiating and implementing successful changes in healthcare processes.
    • Empowering nurses to reform documentation tools enhances job satisfaction and potentially patient care.
