Navigating Hospital Audits: Key Tips for Nurses

Tips for surviving an audit:

Know Your Policies: Familiarize yourself with the hospital's specific policies, procedures, and protocols. Ensure that you can describe how you apply them in your daily nursing practice.
Be Honest: If you're unsure about something, it’s okay to admit it and let the auditor know that you will seek clarification or further training on that topic.
Provide Examples: If you’re asked how you handle specific situations, be ready to provide concrete examples from your experience.
