Hello all,
I have recently accepted a job offer at a community mental health agency. I went down today to test jaws with their electronic medical system. It turns out that their system is written in Java script. I believe cobalt and Java were also used. The problem is the jaws will read none of the screens on their electronic medical record system. My question: is there any screen reading software out there that will work with JavaScript? My other option is a reasonable accommodation is to ask for a reader scribe to help with reading electronic charts and documentation. Along the same lines, I know that sharp desk will extract text from images. Is there any kind of software that might be able to extract the text from the JavaScript screen or any kind of iPhone app I can read the screen with. I know I'll still need help documenting the least I could try to read the charts  that way.



Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
