While i completely understand and support the need for quality notes and records ,the introduction of ConnectCare has in my experience introduced new perils. The suggestion of expansion of documentation and smarttexts for improved quality will introduce note bloat making notes so long and cumbersome unlikely to be read by both author and others increasing risk of errors. Few now actually read all of their notes as most was smart texted in. The long-pasted note also leads to perpetuation of errors .i have encountered errors in gender where one person was referred to in same admission as he and then she and third author to save time uses they for everyone in their smattexts format notes hey .the same issue the same has occurred with right and left. Expanded longest notes most of which is pasted from others and seldom read carries many risks to author
