HAS 105A Army Admissions and Disposition Practice Test

Ward rosters organized by ward and arranged alphabetically are used to help nursing staff track every inpatient in that ward. The Ward Nursing Report is designed for this purpose: it lists all inpatients assigned to a specific ward and puts them in alphabetical order, making it quick to locate a patient, check their bed or room assignment, and coordinate care during rounds, handoffs, or medication administration. Other reports serve different functions—one tracks patients who are out or leaving the ward, another records patients who have died, and another projects future disposition by military specialty—so they don’t provide the straightforward alphabetical ward roster that supports efficient inpatient management.
