Hi everyone, I am a new attending and I was hoping someone could point me towards some resources that can teach me how to write good notes that can be defended in the event of a suit?
Furthermore does anyone have any hard and fast rules that do reduce your liability risk in regards to documentation?
I am pretty clueless on the topic. Im not sure what to say or not say, if I should list differentials, what to do if a patient refuses a procedure (ie refusing an LP in s suspected meningitis case) etc.
Any help is appreciated!
