(every 10 years); measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) booster; influenza vaccine
(yearly); and hepatitis B vaccine (single or three-shot series). Smallpox
vaccinations ceased in 1972 after the World Health Organization (WHO) officially
declared the disease eradicated.

your patient care report.

B) "The patient's breath smelled strongly of alcohol."
C) "The patient's wife stated that he is drunk again."
D) "The patient requires inpatient psychiatric care." –

Documentation in the patient care report (PCR) should be factual, objective,
and free of personal opinion. Statements made by the patient, family members,
or bystanders should be included, but should be placed in quotation marks
exactly as they were spoken. Notation of the odor of alcohol on a patient's
breath
is an objective assessment finding. On the other hand, stating that a patient is
drunk would be subjective because you cannot make that legal determination.
Stating that a patient requires inpatient psychiatric care is also a subjective
statement that is reflective of one's personal opinion.

needed. After you have called for assistance, you should begin triaging and
caring
for the patients to the best of your ability.
