FUNDA LECTURE: Focus or DAR Charting

A 12-hour shift nurses’ duty starts from 7am to 7pm (Morning) and 7pm to 7am (Night). The purpose of presenting 7am to 6:59 pm and vice versa as 12-H shift is to distinguish what marking ink (red or black) will the nurse use when she makes her Focus charting. Correction: Sample Focus Charting Format 2: the date of the R (response) section should be March 13, 2020 because it was a 12-H night shift (7pm to 7am of the following day).
