title: Multidisciplinary case notes: an audit.
abstract: Patient records must be comprehensive, clear, accurate and updated on a regular basis. A pilot study which introduced multidisciplinary case notes to a mental health-care unit found they fulfilled these requirements. Staff who used the multidisciplinary case notes preferred them to traditional methods of record-keeping.
