They were pretty good! I especially liked the third one. :)
Submitted By: Sharolyn Suek Medical Transcription I have three girls, ages 11, 9, and 6, and they get the general idea of what Mommy s job is all about. Recently, they were playing Hospital and drug out my electric typewriter for Monica, my 11 year old, to use as she was the secretary. I found one of their medical records later that day and have typed it here with spelling errors included. The names used are their made up names and not the names of real people (even they are aware of the HIPPA concerns, apparently). Dear Dr. Car Gender: Girl Name: Lusie Last Name: Harver Hair color: Brown Heith: 5 feet 2 inches Wieght: 100 pounds Lusie has got problems in her left ear. Her ear could possibly be inffected. If her ear is an ear infectison, it could be a pretty dramatic infetion. The parent are ablolutely feared, nervis,, and breathless.Truly, hop for Lusie to feel less stressed. She has also got somthing fearsly rong and somthing in her stomach.Parents are also absolutely nervis on this sugery. Have hope for the Harvers. She is also pretty yong for this surgery. Lusie is only at 1 years right now and surgans have got to be very careful Clearly, She has lots of prayers coming her way. Lusie Harveer has VERY high blood pressure. Has an 105 fever. Her parent can t believe what kind of mess Lussie is in and how harsh she looks. Certainly, Dr. Car better be absolutly careful. Sincerly, Carly Clasin (WINNER: Sharolyn S)

Roused from my bed before the break of dawn, I stumble to my desk and turn my computer on. The house is still dark, my toe I might stub As I begin the day’s work to earn daily grub. The doctors are chattering, my keyboard is clattering. The medical words across the screen are smattering. Oh, no. What’s this A doctor is mumbling and now my fast flying fingers are stumbling. Never fear, for trusty Google is on call Ready to rescue the day after all. I search, I paste, I cut, and I copy. Was that word really gastroesophagoduodenoscopy Soon my shift is complete, the work day is ended. My e time is logged, my hours are tended. The doctors are happy, line quotas are met. I ll relax with my honey, my best time of day yet. I reflect on my day and the job that I love. Transcription and I fit like a hand in a glove. But just as I think I can leave it like that, A last check of my email reveals jobs out of TAT. (WINNER: Janice M)

MY EXPERIENCE/JOURNEY IN MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION: In 1968, in a very poorly lit, almost dark little room about 6 x6 , a manual typewriter, an old Dictabelt transcriber machine with clonker type foot pedal, an uncomfortable typist chair (rollery type), an almost elderly, tiny lady, whose father was one of the first African American doctors in Chicago, in practice, introduced me to Medical Transcription, and it took me a while to get into transcription, but here I am 40 years later. From Manual, to Electric, to Electronic, to MT/ST, Mag/Card, CPT Word Processor (numerous Word Processors), Personal Computers, to Internet Driven Platform. From Dictabelts, Magnetic belts, Cassette tapes (all sizes/speeds), Transcribers (all types), C Phones to USB ports to the Internet. In Hospitals, Offices, Doctor s Offices, Home, Home, Home, Home..... Dictation from Americans only to current United Nations variety of dictators, and the ability to take a Foot Pedal and work from any State in the USA via High Speed Internet. I have witnessed the Evolution of Transcription to High Tech, State of the Art Automated Transcription to include Automated Speech Recognition, and that is like coming from COVERED WAGON to SUPERSONIC JETS..... My only regret is not keeping at least a photo of every Transcription Set Up that I have used. I would have a Transcriber s Museum.. (smile) An ever learning ever rewarding occupation.

You will never be bored. You will always be frustrated. You will be surrounded by challenge. You will carry immense responsibilities and very little authority. You will step into people’s lives that you have never even met, but your quality in work makes a huge difference in their lives. You will love the voice of some doctors and hate the voice of other doctors, but you will always do your best with what you have to work with. You will type life ending ~ and will type life beginning. You will experience resounding triumphs and some devastating failures. You will cry a lot ~ you will laugh a lot. You will know what it is to be human and to be humane. (WINNER: Alisha R)

THE PERFECT SHIFT Waking up to Internet connection first try... Starting off good. My first report, my favorite account... Smiling before first cup of coffee down. Next report, new account. Short client profile, Dr John Smith AND he wants a standard inserted.... Doesn t get any better than that. End of shift, schedule worked, line requirement met... Happy face from my production supervisor. Working for Medquist PRICELESS. (WINNER: Vicki K) |
