What goes wrong today.
The patient is on the trolley and the signed consent cannot be found.

OT staff keep phoning the ward to ask if the patient is ready.

- Ward ticks each itemNurses mark consent, fasting, site marking, tests and blood as done.
- Gaps show in redAnything still missing is flagged for the ward and the OT team.
- Shift when all clearOT calls for the patient once the list is complete.
