incident reports
Formal occurrence logs
Incident reports are formal documents recording unusual events, accidents, injuries, or policy violations.
Organizations use them to create official records: The nurse filed an incident report after the patient fell.
They serve legal, safety, and administrative purposes—documenting what happened, when, and who was involved.
Common in healthcare, law enforcement, workplaces, and schools.
