my hospital just made the switch. am having a tough time adjusting to the massive amount of clicking and typing. have had overuse thumb issues in the past and that's only part of it.... takes forever!
scribes are still in training, hospital is not getting Dragon to the ED docs for at least 3 more months.
any tips? i know, macro this, dot phrase that.... but HPI and MDM is not so easy to "macro"
i have colleagues who bring a laptop or computer on wheels in the room, but i cannot practice medicine with a computer in my face. terrible, terrible for the dr-patient interactions. i DO still like taking care of people!!!
and FWIW i used Cerner w/ Dragon previously and it was so much easier - i think the key factor was the "precompleted notes".
any advice is welcome, thanks!!! (40 charts in the hole)
