• A. Admission note
• B. Assessment note
• C. Discharge note
• D. Change of shift report

Hint:

Always give a clear and complete shift report to avoid errors in patient care.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

A change of shift report is a vital handover tool in nursing practice.
It ensures that important patient information is passed to the next shift.
This helps maintain continuity of care and patient safety.
Admission, assessment, and discharge notes are separate documentation tasks.
Only the change of shift report directly involves communication at shift changeover.
Therefore, the correct answer is Change of shift report.
