Nursing Shift Handover

The video explains and demonstrates a nursing shift handover (timbang terima), in which the outgoing nurse passes responsibility and relevant patient information to the incoming team. Handover is presented as an essential nursing competency for maintaining continuity of care.

Handover process

1. Prepare for the handover. Confirm that the incoming nurses have arrived, identify the outgoing and incoming teams, and gather the patient’s medical and nursing-care records.
2. Meet at the nursing station. The outgoing nurse gives a report to the incoming team before they go to the patient’s bedside.
3. Give a structured patient report. In the example, the morning-shift nurse reports:
   • The patient’s current symptoms and condition, including coughing, difficulty breathing, and feeling more comfortable in a semi-Fowler’s position.
   • Relevant observations and vital signs.
   • The patient’s admission history and medical diagnosis of COPD.
   • Treatments given and actions taken during the shift.
   • The identified nursing problem: ineffective breathing pattern.
   • A follow-up item for the incoming team: check with the doctor whether the oxygen level should be maintained or reduced.
4. Clarify the plan. The afternoon team asks whether the patient should remain in a semi-Fowler’s position; the outgoing nurse confirms that she should.
5. Check on the patient at the bedside. The teams introduce themselves, ask how the patient is feeling, and confirm details such as whether she has eaten and taken her medication. The incoming nurses introduce themselves, and the patient is encouraged to recover.
6. Return to the nursing station and close. The teams conclude the handover, express thanks, and finish with a prayer and well-wishes.

The demonstration emphasizes clear communication, checking information directly with the patient, and ensuring that the incoming team understands the patient’s current condition and follow-up needs. Some medication names and details in the auto-generated subtitles are unclear.
