Punishing the right person - Sick of ESL dictators Posted: May 5th, 2016 - 10:10 pm
If a doctor/dictator does not have the ability to speak clear, correct English, then maybe they should not be working in medicine. It is not fair that an MT gets punished for leaving a blank or making a mistake because the dictation was not clear English. It is time that ESL dictators and doctors become responsible for their poor English and be at blame when the medical record is not correct due to their inability to speak clear, proper English.
To me, not being able to speak clear, correct English puts a patient's care in great jeopardy. ESL doctors and dictators should not be allowed to dictate reports.
