Instructions

Guidelines for Audit Leaders

1. Set up an audit date and time. You will need at least one hour (best would be 1.5 hrs) for entire audit.

2. Meet in one room before the audit so that instruction/discussion can take place. Discuss the audit process and make sure to give all auditors the website www.auditspot.ca address and generic username & password.

   1. Note that an auditor will need to switch between the EMR and the online Audit Tool on a computer to do the audit unless they have their own laptop (i.e. a separate device for input). Note that the online Audit Tool is compatible with the Apple IPAD.

3. Everyone goes to their individual workstations to do the audit. It will take about 10-20 minutes to audit one chart.

4. Each resident should be expected to do at least 2 chart audits.

5. Make sure to instruct the residents to do only 1 feedback submission and sign out.

6. After the chart audit, everyone should regroup in 1 room to go over any learning points. The Results could be projected as well. It's best to schedule another date for the results after the chart audit time has closed. By doing this, all the other centre's results will be in for comparison.

7. Bring any comments to our Record & Quality of Care Meetings.
