Does Your Email Leave a Trail? Linking Messages Back to the Care Record
A message that never reaches the record is invisible to the next shift. Simple habits that keep communication connected.
The Hidden Gap Between Inbox and Record
Important conversations often live in individual inboxes. When a worker is away, nobody knows a family asked for a callback or that a GP gave new advice. The care record should show what was communicated and what is still outstanding.
Record, Then Assign
Note the purpose, the recipient and any promised action, then give the action an owner. It takes a minute and prevents the missed follow-up.
