Imagine you are sending the patient to another provider, or unit, or facility, or clinic. You will need to fill in any information needed for a complete SBAR report.
You can be creative, but it must be accurate based on your understanding of problem and subjective and objective assessments. Use the text to help you and ensure accuracy. Use your experience. Use what you learned in this course!
You may need to add factors such as gender, age, appropriate vital signs, HPI, significant medical and/or family history, and physical examination outcomes. These are examples, there may be more or less based on the case.
Create an SBAR communication that gives a clear picture of the patient and their current status to the receiving provider.

Patient A.B. is a teen with scoliosis who has come with their mother to the ED. A.B complains of back pain from “sitting long hours”. You have provided care for A.B. and reporting to the oncoming nurse. Be sure to include your musculoskeletal assessment for this complaint. Consider the age related factors for assessing a teen client in your SBAR communication.
