Using Specific Words to Help Document Skilled Care

Use Action Words

When thinking about documenting skilled care it always helps me to include an action word.

This makes me really analyze why I did something.

Words to Include

Some words that are great to use and show skilled care are:

• Progressed
• Modified
• Assessed
• Challenged
• Facilitated
• Monitored
• Updated
• Instructed
• Stabilized

All of those words help strengthen your documentation to showed skilled care!

So next time you write a note ask yourself how you can incorporate one of these words and you will see how much easier it is to show your skill!
