Day 1: Shortness of Breath — CHF Exacerbation

Quick report before you head in on East Wing Room 12. Your patient is Mr. Jones, 82 years old — Mr. Jones reports sudden shortness of breath that started about an hour ago and is getting worse. Your job right now: walk through the assessment findings, pick out the ones that actually matter, then get Dr. Patel on the phone with a clean SBAR. One tip — don't dump every finding. Providers act on what you say first, so lead with what's changed. You've got this. I'll be right here when you're done.
