IV documentation
No job is finished until the paperwork is done! IV therapy is no different. You must ensure you have:
signed the Fluid Treatment Chart, complete the time and date started
completed and attached a Change of Line label to the IV tubing
entered the IV fluid type and volume onto the Fluid Balance Chart
documented the insertion site and date in the patient record/care plan
attached a date and time of insertion label to the IV dressing
attached an IV time label to the IV bag!
