This.

Every hospital I’ve worked at has used Epic and every one has a different “custom” version with different UI and user role configuration.

Even within the same hospital the UI and default displays widely varies based on context and role selection when logging in.

Nursing notes are definitely accessible in every version I’ve used and I also read them fairly frequently (often more useful than MD progress notes) so your hospital may be hiding non-provider notes from you. It would be strange though, are you sure you don’t have “show provider notes only” checked off (or that box hidden)?

I've looked under the Notes tab, and under Chart Review -> Notes, and turned off all filters. Nope. I get nursing "plan of care" notes, but not their regular floor notes.

Strange, I'm a radiologist and this happened to us at the very beginning of the Epic transition as well (they also dropped ER MD notes from our profile) but we gave that feedback and they changed it within a few weeks as we used the magic words of "impacting patient care".

This limitation isn't an Epic default feature and must have been set by your institution or whoever created the anesthesia role for some inexplicable reason, there wasn't actually a justification or privacy concern for why this was set this way for radiologists at my institution and seemingly was set by someone in IT thinking it was extraneous to us.

That's the vibe I get. "You don't need to change it"... yes, we do.

Dunno, at this point I'd settle for being able to establish custom filters for my status board. But I've learned that a lot of weirdnesses have to do with interfacing with other software.
