Handover Notes
• notes are written by nurses as they transition in or out of their shift.
• They provide nurses, who are taking over the care of your patients, with key information
about a patient’s condition, treatment etc.
• Handover notes are very important because they pass on critical knowledge about your
patient to the incoming nurse.
