There are many reasons why closing your charts benefits your employer or company and your patients.
What I want to focus on here is what having open charts does to YOU.
Having open charts and an overflowing inbox creates unfinished business that weighs heavily on your mind.
It creates a sense of overwhelm and stress.
You have to work after hours on evenings and weekends to catch up on all the work.
It takes longer to write notes because you’re more removed from the situation and have to rely on your memory to recall the details.
Inefficiency breeds inefficiency so everything takes longer.
You’re tired and slower.
You feel resentment towards you job and career for working all the time.
You feel stuck.
Your family doesn’t get the best of you. Sometimes they don’t get you at all because you’re too busy working.
You’re more short-tempered and irritable.
You’re more prone to snapping and yelling out of proportion to the trigger.
Your relationships suffer.
Your sleep suffers.
You feel out of control.
This sounds like a description of an addict, but it’s describing what so many people are feeling right now.
The same people who were the top students, best in the class.
A students. Honors students. AP students. The creme de la creme.
The ones who had so much pride on graduation day and now feel like this too often.
What happened?!?!
It doesn’t have to be this way.
