SBAR - Situation Background Assessment Recommendation |
|
| |
The SBAR technique is derived from the US Navy creating a common method
for effective information transfer by providing a standardized form
of clear and concise communications among healthcare providers. There
are countless opportunities that involve transferring vital patient
information:
• EMT to Nurse
• Nurse to Nurse
• Nurse to Physician
• Physician to Nurse
• Patient transfer to another facility or level of care
• New policy or procedure directives
Safety is a by-product of standardized execution, and standardized
communication through SBAR is a cornerstone of this
methodology.
