Correct documentation of a telephone order is as follows: 09/02/16 0845 morphine 4 mg intravenously q 1 hour prn pain T.O.: Dr. D. Kelly/Kay Andrews, RN (date, time, medication, route, frequency of dose, circumstances under which it is to be given, prescriber's name and title, nurses name and title.) The other options demonstrate incomplete documentation of a telephone order.
