  • Nursing UK | How to give a successful handover. Here are my tips for giving a successful handover. I'm mainly discussing the main handover done for all your patients but I have also included SBAR which can be used when handover one patient to another member of your MDT too. Hope this helps a little bit :)

    Oh this is brilliant, I'm in my final year now and I have only ever done 3 handovers during my training and I am so nervous about it especially when people think that I should know everything. Thank you x

    This is great! Thank you!
    For me, I have to create like a ‘nurses brain’ on a sheet of A4. With all my patients having a section each with everything from their presenting condition, to any investigations I did and the results of them, to their allergies, any meds they’ve had and last set of obs I did etc. I end up writing quite a lot of info, but by writing it, it actually sticks in my head more and I end up only needing my ‘nurses brain’ as a prompt if I think I’ve forgotten anything.

    This is good advice, and a great channel. Unfortunately during my early years as a Nurse,I was regularly made sport of for my nerve wracking handovers. It was horrible, I don't know how I ever stayed! Fortunately I developed a separate crib sheet for myself which I still use. SBAR is a great tool. Remember; focus on the important stuff & its ok to say 'I don't know'. You can't possibly know every single detail for 10 to 16 patients as was regularly expected of me.

    This was great help thank you. My nervousness from doing handover is not remembering what I need to say. I have never done handover yet so that probably makes me more nervous when it is my turn 😊😊

    Thank you, this is great. I just began my graduate year and have been finding it difficult to know what questions to ask the nurse who is giving the handover, some of them breeze threw it and I find myself writing to keep up and then having questions after they have left..... maybe if you could do another video on receiving handover and questions to ask, that would be fantastic!

    First year and first placement- the hardest part for me is the acronym (lots of them). And sometimes I can not hear what the nurses are saying because I am standing behind them trying to listen and learn

    • @ClaireCarmichael
      @ClaireCarmichael  Рік тому

      Morning!
      Oh no! That’s not good :( maybe ask the nurses to give you a list of the acronyms to help you? One of my mentors did that and it helped so much!
      Try and stand in front of the nurse handing over if you can as well :( I know it can be hard sometimes. But if you don’t hear the handover, how do you know what’s happening with your patients. Or maybe ask one of them to go over it with you after?

    Why i get scared is because nurses are very judgmental in someone who is training to do handovers.
