Generates a complete SBAR handoff note covering situation, background, assessment, and recommendation - including code status, pending tasks, contingency plans, and a read-back section. Use it at shift change or when transferring a patient to another unit.
Create a structured handoff communication using the SBAR format for a [setting: shift change, unit transfer, OR to PACU, floor to ICU] handoff. The patient is [brief identifier]. Situation: what is happening right now that prompted the handoff, including current vital signs, code status, and isolation status. Background: relevant medical history, current admission diagnosis, key events during this encounter, and current treatment plan. Assessment: your clinical assessment of the patient current condition, trajectory (improving/stable/declining), and any concerns. Recommendation: what needs to happen next, including pending tasks, time-sensitive medications or interventions, contingency plans for likely deteriorations, and family communication needs. Add a section for receiver questions and read-back confirmation.
