Any good resources out there on charting?
As I wrap up intern year, this is something I struggle with.
Been trying to see more patients and push myself, but charting really gets in the way.
Would like to become more efficient, without leaving a chart that is full of holes.
Still takes me too long. Probably documenting a bunch of crap that doesn't need to be there and missing stuff that should be.
I'd like to come up with some sort of more systematic approach for the more common complaints.
Our EMR sucks, which is part of the issue.
On a totally unrelated topic that may derail this thread.
Any good podcasts or resource that talks about doing a neuro exam on the altered or uncooperative patient, i.e. the ones who really need a good neuro exam.
Think demented nursing home patient sent in for AMS.
Thanks.
