The first similarly that I have found and it seems to be the same for most facilities would be that are their records are permanently anchored to their chart, this is a great idea because it prevent any miss happens like lost paper work or misplaced it’s also a great way to ensure that all paper work will be together at all times. It seem to me that the most common form of organization within the facilities regardless of the size they seem to use chronological order, although there are other forms of organized like by categories of chart which would include labs, specialist and so on, others use numeric form, alphabetized order or by date.
