[humanser] AccessibleTechnology Delay inInternship and Emplyment

[JD Townsend]

Hi:

As my hospital slowly moves into electronic records I am employing the 
state's blind services to engage a blindness software consultant to write 
scripts for my screen reader to enable it to fully access various documents. 
The hospital's electronic records database is a pieceworked application not 
using MSAA, so it is slow and sort of clunky.  It is not ideal, but we make 
it work.


For years I have used the hospital's forms, scanned, and edited into MS Word 
formatted documents.  That along with a picture of my signature plopped in 
the correct places, allowed me to do my work.

It takes some work on the agency's side and a lot of flexability on ours.


Best of luck.


JD
