Nurses are responsible for completing nursing histories, and it usually takes approximately 30 to 60 minutes to obtain data such as history of present illness, past medical history, support network, and other pertinent data. The physical is performed separately. Family members can offer valuable information as long as the client gives permission for them to remain present during the history taking.
