[humanser] Paperwork

[Miranda B.]

Hi Rebecca,
You mention using a screen reader. Do you also happen to read Braille? If
so, could you read what's on your computer via a Braille display, instead of
repeating what the screen reader is saying? I'm not sure that I would use
dictation for the same concern you mentioned--editing. Moreover, I think
dictating notes little by little (as you're only given a few seconds per
dictation), editing, ETC would extend and not minimize the process.
What information is typically handwritten by the clients? Could this
information be communicated in a different format (orally, via computer,
ETC)? Also, I'm trying to interpret your comment about medication. Are you
saying that you need to log their medications? Or, do you need to ensure
that your clients' medications are being properly administered?
Thanks for the clarification, and have a wonderful weekend!

Best wishes, Miranda

Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to complete paperwork faster. We do not use an
EMR system but I am able to type my notes and intake reports. 

I am not sure if dictating my notes would be faster however you still need
to proofread that.  I know part of my intake report takes time because I am
having to try to read clients handwriting or guardian their medications they
are taking 

I am also trying to figure out how to be more efficient with my intake
process. Currently I have an outline in the word and I try to use my screen
reader to read me the question that I ask the client. Then I try to type
their response. For the most part this works for me however I know my other
coworkers typically take a hand written notes with their intake rather than
sitting at their computer. 

Thanks,
Rebecca Arrowood
