During initial interviews with staff, you hear complaints of staffing shortages and poor relationships with other facilities in the system. There are so few trained medical staff that guards and some record technicians have taken on responsibility for documenting inmate histories. Members of the medical staff know they are performing duplicate lab tests, but the medical records are not available to verify previous tests and corroborate inmate complaints. You also learn that several inmates are filing lawsuits claiming deliberate indifference because a tuberculosis test was not performed on another inmate who infected his cellmates after being transferred from your facility. Since the medical records are stored by the discharging facility, they are not available to the reception center. You know by law that the staff must complete a health status within 24 hours and a physical exam within seven days, but most inmates are transferred after four days which does not provide enough time to transfer records. A quick examination of the electronic information system indicates that it lacks relevant data on prescription drugs, dates of tests, HIV status and allergies, and therefore cannot compensate for a lack of physical medical records. The staff turnover rate at the facility is averages 40% (From: Peden, Ann H.

Introduction
The proper keeping of records is critical in an organization because it helps one have an
adequately arranged information system in place that can help when you want to compare or
