Maintaining accurate records is important in any organisation as it provides data which is used as feedback to the community within and outside of the organisation. It is also useful for the management of the organisation when making decisions and reviewing procedures.Records of medication and nappy chart form a basis of communicating care which should or have been given to children. Portifolios serve to communicate the children's progress and work to the whole community. Without proper record keeping some issues may fall under the radar and some opportunities to improve on service delivery may be missed. Records are also useful to understand the daily occurances and how a programme is run, they are also used to build a shared understanding of what is valued and valuable for a group (community ). It is through maintaining accurate records in our room as a team that we have been able to communicate with each other and also with the parents using different documentation, portifolios, nappy chart, accident reports.
