im not sure if i should put this in the intern but oh well
i had quick question regarding documentation and would like some advice, i created templates for h and p's and soap notes that saved me alot of time on my sub-i rotation and other electives and thought about using them during my intern year medicine , i still print them on the hospital paper so they look like i typed them on hospital forms,
i emailed these to the chief res just to make sure it would be ok to use a few days ago. he emailed me back another soap note that the other residents use and told me it would be better to use that instead because "too many forms" would get confusing or whatever and that the h and p needed to hand written
i looked at the form that he sent me and it was really bad, if you want to copy and paste labs or meds it gets all messed up, i think they tried drawing in lines and pasting the hospital logo and then just print the note like that
do you think i should use my templates(which i think are more concise and organized, as well as neat) or just suck it up and do what im told?
thanks,
