Emergency nurse practitioner’s documentation: development of an audit tool

<p>The quality of clinical documentation was examined during a randomised controlled trial of emergency nurse practitioner (ENP) led care (Cooper et al 1999). In order to measure the quality of ENPs and A&amp;E senior house officers (SHOs) documentation, a reliable and valid tool had to be developed. This paper describes the use o of a consensus methodology, the modified nomig nal group technique, to develop a documentation audit tool (DAT) to assess the quality of clinical documentation.</p>
