[HumanSer] Cerner EHR and PDF’s of faxed referrals with JAWS?

[43210 at Bellsouth.net]

A FAX &/or PDF document can be read using a scan & read app such as Openbook or using the function in JAWS: Insert-Space followed by O and W.  This will roughly read your document.

I do not know your EHR, but most need at least some tweaking by an access engineer, speak to your state blind services counselor for this as it is costly.,

Subject: [HumanSer] Cerner EHR and PDF’s of faxed referrals with JAWS?

Hi Everyone,
I hope you are all healthy and well during this difficult time. I just interviewed this morning for a mental health intake specialist position with our local hospital system. The mental health intake specialist is tasked with reviewing referrals and admitting patients into the hospital’s psychiatric unit. Much of this work is done via Microsoft Excel, but referrals are also faxed and converted to Adobe PDF documents. Moreover, this company uses the Cerner electronic health record system.
Does anyone have experience with this EHR or in handling faxed PDF documents with JAWS?
Thanks in advance for any insight, and have a safe and healthy weekend!

Best, Miranda
