✅ JCI YAN!

The patient’s family requests information, but the nurse first verifies that disclosure is appropriate before discussing the patient’s condition.

✅ JCI YAN!

The surveyor asks, “How do you reduce patient falls in your unit?” The nurse replies, “We assess, reassess, implement interventions, and document.”

✅ JCI YAN!

The surveyor asks, “When do you update the nursing care plan?” The nurse replies, “Whenever the patient’s condition or needs change.”

✅ JCI YAN!

The nurse documents assessments at the end of the shift from memory.

❌ JUSKO!

A physician writes an illegible medication order. Rather than clarifying it, the nurse administers what she believes was intended.

❌ JUSKO!

An elderly patient becomes confused after surgery. Since confusion is common after anesthesia, no reassessment is performed.

❌ JUSKO!

Discharge instructions are explained verbally, demonstrated when appropriate, and the patient is asked to repeat the instructions.

✅ JCI YAN!

The Emergency Department is crowded. A patient with chest pain waits because all treatment cubicles are occupied.

❌ JUSKO! Rationale: Patient priority is determined by clinical urgency through triage, not by bed availability.

A critical laboratory result is received during shift change. You decide to endorse it to the next nurse instead of notifying the physician immediately.

❌ JUSKO!

A physician gives a telephone order. You write it down but do not read it back because the line is busy

❌ JUSKO! IPSG 2 Read-back is a safety requirement that confirms the accuracy of verbal and telephone orders.

Before giving insulin, you ask the patient to state their full name and date of birth, then compare these with the wristband and medication record.

KAKANTA NA YAN!!!

“I’ll tell the next shift everything in the hallway.”

❌ JUSKO! Handover communication must maintain patient confidentiality while ensuring accurate and complete transfer of information.

Use at least two patient identifiers before medication administration.

✅ JCI YAN! IPSG: Using two identifiers prevents wrong-patient errors and is a fundamental International Patient Safety Goal.

Room number is an acceptable patient identifier.

❌ JUSKO! IPSG Room numbers may change and are not unique identifiers. JCI requires at least two patient identifiers, preferably the patient’s full name and date

Basic Life Support can wait until the Code Team arrives.

❌ JUSKO! COC Immediate initiation of Basic Life Support significantly improves survival and should begin without delay while awaiting advanced resuscitation.

Fall risk is assessed only once during admission.

❌ JUSKO! AOP Fall risk must be reassessed whenever the patient’s condition changes, after surgery, medication changes, or other factors that may increase fall r

Pain assessment is optional.

❌ JUSKO! AOP Pain is considered the fifth vital sign and must be routinely assessed using validated tools to guide effective pain management.

Initial nursing assessment should be completed within 8 hours of admission.

✅ JCI YAN! AOP

Patient education is part of discharge planning.

✅ JCI YAN! COC Patients and families must receive education about medications, follow-up care, diet, activity, and warning signs before discharge.

Discharge planning starts only when the physician writes the discharge order.

❌ JUSKO! COC Discharge planning begins during the initial nursing assessment to identify anticipated discharge needs and ensure continuity of care.

Room availability determines patient priority.

❌ JUSKO! ACC Patient priority is determined by clinical urgency through triage, not by room availability.

Patients should be informed if there is an unusual delay in treatment.

JCI YAN! ACC Patients have the right to know about delays and their possible effects. Prompt communication promotes trust, transparency, and informed decision-m

Patients with suspected communicable diseases should be identified early and isolated.

JCI YAN! ACC Early recognition and isolation prevent disease transmission and protect patients, visitors, and healthcare workers.

A patient can be admitted before screening if the room is already available.

JUSKO: ACC JCI requires that every patient undergo an appropriate screening evaluation before admission to determine the correct level of care and ensure patien
