If there was a preceding safety or observation check of any kind, it will be important to discontinue because the EHR system can only demonstrate one safety check at a time on the whiteboard. Therefore, create a safety check for the most restrictive scenario. If there is data that needs to be captured in a secondary type of check, then that entry can be inputted into associated flowsheet rather than from the whiteboard.
