**Who this is for:** Nurses, Physicians, Clinical Managers, Health Informaticists
## When to Use This Skill
Transfer patient care using Identify-Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation so nothing critical drops between shifts.
Use it whenever a matching task appears in conversation — the agent loads these instructions on demand.
## Steps
1. Identify: name, age, location, attending team for each patient
2. Situation: current diagnosis and reason for admission in one sentence
3. Background: relevant history, allergies, code status, isolation needs
4. Assessment: latest vitals trends and your clinical concern level
5. Recommendation: pending tasks, watch-fors, escalation thresholds
6. Receiver reads back action items before closing each handoff
## Common Pitfalls
- Social chat interleaved with handoff losing structure
- Vague watch-fors like 'if worse, call' without thresholds
