Medical charts are one side of the story and only from the perspective of medical providers. The power to shape outcomes lies between the words, commas, summaries and inrepretations of the person entering the notes. Together we will review chart notes for bias, racism, and misinformation. Words matter so much and we need to learn how to counter this bias for the people we are caring for.
