How to use this module

Fill every model note and smart phrase with the shift’s actual values and the resident’s current orders — these are structured examples to edit, never phrases to copy. The universal writing rules in Foundations (the necessity sentence, quantified outcomes, teach-back, closed-loop coordination, MDS-supportive documentation, and care-plan linkage) apply throughout and are not reprinted here. Disease-specific days route to the overlays. Verify each threshold and citation against the current source before use.
