Nursing documentation is a standard of professional performance whose main objective is to improve nursing care related to quality assurance, research, ethics, and nursing performance. Each activity should be documented properly as authentic and crucial evidence. Nursing documentation has several functions, such as proof of the quality of nursing care, ethical and legal accountability aspects, information on individual protection, proof of the application of nursing practice standards, sources of statistical, financial, educational, and nursing research information, communication of nursing interventions, and data sources for future healthcare planning.
