Change-of-shift report


Explanation:
I think this is what it refers to, the instructions given at a shift change.

Enlace de turno Nogueira lo define como los informes verbales que tienen como finalidad relatar lo ocurrido en la asistencia prestada a un paciente durante el turno anterior para que los integrantes del turno siguiente conozcan los aspectos fundamentales de su condición actual y garanticen la continuidad de la atención.

PURPOSE OF CHANGE-OF-SHIFT REPORT
Report is the time when one nurse transfers accountability and responsibility of patients to another nurse. The transfer involves a handoff from one nurse who has observed and cared for a patient to the next nurse who may not know the patient.

Shift change/ Shift handover

Example sentence(s):
  • The percentage of nurses dissatisfied with shift handovers ranged from 22% in England to 61% in France. In most countries the main reason for dissatisfaction with shift handovers was 'too many disturbances', followed by 'lack of time'

agree  Jacqueline O'Neill Huerta: I have heard my nursing cousins refer to the moment when they are preparing to end their shift and are handing in their report so they can pass on their duties of care for a patient to a night-shift nurse as either a "handover" or a "shift change"
