This study was done with an aim to check the quality of nursing documentation in different areas and reasons for lack of proper nursing reports at Yasuj Shahid Beheshti hospital. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted during year 2013. Samples were 120 records of admitted patients and 100 nurses, who were randomly selected. Research tools included the check-list of common reports, admission, discharge, and pre-postoperative records. Other check-lists were reasons of incorrect nursing documentation. Data were analyzed with the SPSS 16 software. Results: Percentage of correct records was 56% on admission, 82% at discharge, 44% before surgery, and 68% after surgery. The nurses' lack of time, high workload, and fatigue were the most important reasons for correct documentation. Conclusions: The results of this study therefore provide an opportunity for nurses and administrators to pay more attention to items with weak documentation, and help promote nursing reports. Nurses' workload and fatigue must be reduced, leading to a lack of accurate documentation.
