hey,
I just finished up ~3rd training shift, and for this weekends back to back shifts I was being trained by a complete dingus, and so I'm not sure if I'm actually behind in my skill level or if he was just being an ass. I'm pretty slow at writing my HPI, and have a hard time deciphering whats pertinent and whats not, and how much information to write. I also need to work on turning it into a "story" with a nice flow.
I also miss out on a lot of information thats being said in the patient's room, either because im lagging behing the doctor and my trainer with the damn cart which causes me to miss out on the first 2-3 sentences the patient says, OR because I get too sucked into the conversation and forget to continue writing stuff down.
I want to say that most of these issues will be resolved with more practice, but IDK maybe I'm wrong? How can I improve?
I'm working on my medical terminology, and its a work in progress, but other than that I don't really konw how to improve when im not working.
Please help. I'm afraid my trainer is going to give me a couple of bad reviews, and I really need to improve before my next shift on saturday, which, thankfully, is with a different trainer.
also, can anyone pelase tell me what my skill level should be at this point in the game? I'm working with physassist (7 trainig shifts and then the 8th shift is a mock sol0).
I'm also having a hard time keeping track of all the menus and submenus of the mckesson program , but i do feel like im improving.
sorry this is extrmeley disjointed, but im really frustrated. i want to be one of the best scribes, but according to my trainer, I'm extremely bad. since i dont have anything to compare my skill level to, I'm sort of panicking.
thanks.
