Hahaha....a dictator starting dictating the lab - Kiki
Posted: Apr 03, 2010
values and then just stopped....la la la.....dead space....papers shuffling.....
So you know when you get frustrated with a dictator and yell at the computer as if he can hear, like "will you hurry up!!!!" Well, that's what I did, and then some, and then he finally goes, "Oh, I'm so sorry; I appreciate your patience; you guys do a great job by the way." This was right after I shot my mouth off.....ahahhahaha. Felt bad just a little. But for real though, he could have used the pause button.....jeesh....haha
ASR Control M - planetspinz
[ In Reply To ..]If you are editing ASR and the dictator stops and shuffles, sneezes, whatever, just put your cursors about 4 or 5 words after the pause and click Control M and the cursor will go to where the dictation starts again
Thanks, but this wasn't an ASR report... - Kiki
[ In Reply To ..]But thanks for the tip.... :)

YAWNING AND DICTATING
Jul 13, 2010
I very seldom vent or complain, but it has just got to me today. This surgeon does such good dictation, EXCEPT when he yawns and continues to dictate. How in the world does he think we can understand him when he does this. It is not a little yawn either. It almost makes me shutter when he does it. I am sorry, I just had to finally vent after listening to him for 10 years. ...
Gah! Hang Up When You're Done Dictating!!!
Oct 01, 2010
He does this all the time...turns a 1.5-2 min dictation into a 15 minute dictation. I fast forward through it, but I still have to "listen" to the whole file before I can turn in the dictation. This is on top of being a horrible dictator; he whispers, shuffles papers, etc, and has extremely long pauses between words. Gah!!!! Okay, just had to get that out of my system. Thanks! ...
One Or 1 When Dictating Medication
Nov 06, 2010

Gum Chewing While Dictating

I'm going freaking nuts! I am trying to transcribe a resident's dictation (bad enough), but she's smacking and chewing gum throughout the whole thing.

RNs Dictating - GRrrrrr!
Apr 10, 2012
Okay, if you're going to have an RN, FNP, or PA dictate for you, at least make sure they know the terminology! I just suffered through at 10 minute discharge summary on a patient post CVA, and this lady was reading the CT scan and MRI reports of the brain into the record with clearly no idea at all of what she was reading or what it meant or how to pronounce the parts of the brain. Thank goodness I've been around long enough to be able to get and idea and fill in so ...

Eating While Dictating
Apr 18, 2014
Note to all doctors who eat while dictating... STOP IT! Okay, you jerks swore to do no harm. You violate that oath every single time you pick up a phone and dictate. Eating while dictating is just one of the many things you do. How would you like it if someone came up to you and started chewing their food right in your ears? Oh, you wouldn't? Gee, could have fooled me! What's that you say? No one would show a doctor that kind of disrespect? You are nothing but an over-educated, self in ...
Re-dictating By The MT Using Dragon Etc

Anyone have thoughts on using program such as Dragon to "re-dictate" reports to save some transcription time and hopefully save further wear and tear? Not an expensive program start-up but willing to spend some time to set up a more basic program to work. My shoulder is nearly frozen, again. Us old-schoolers are wearing out. Thanks! ...

Doc Ranting About Insurance While Dictating
Oct 16, 2010
a doc dictating on a teenager with new-onset seizures, numbness, slurred speech had ranted a little and made it clear he was angry in his report when an insurance company would not cover a brain MRI on this person. Family were worried enough to get one anyway and it found a glioma that the CT didn't pick up. I pay 750 a month for health insurance, I think I would make quite the stink if this happened to me. ...
Really?! Do You HAVE To Listen To The Radio While Dictating?
Nov 11, 2010
Honestly, this Dr. is always listening to the radio when he is doing his reports and it is up LOUD. So of course, since I do VRE, I have to delete TONS of song lyrics from every report he does. Can he seriously not live without his terrible 80's soft rock for 10 minutes?! ...
