The standardization of shift handovers was identified as one of the 2009 National Client Safety Goals from The Joint Commission (TJC).

Upon arriving to the unit this morning, I quickly realized today was going to be a chaotic day with the current patient census, and all of the new admissions. I was able to assist the night charge nurse with today’s assignments, while she helped with the code, and the day began.
