Now there are so many people with no work trying to make up their lines, that as soon as the work comes in, it goes out!!!

11 am is peak time for docs to start dictating. - If you have ever worked in a

hospital you would know that there are certain times during the day where work flow peaks: 11am, 5pm - 8pm are usually peak times.

I don't buy it - mona

I have been here forever and have worked at a hospital before that. I don't buy that at all

Really? Think about it, not a lot of dictation coming - in between 12am to 6pm. It does

Physicians usually do not start to dictate until after 9am and by 11am thats when it really picks up. The last hopsital I worked at was like that. But actually, its common sense. Unless its ER notes, you just dont get a lot of dictation between midnight and 6am and even after 6am its not nearly as much as mid-morning/early afternoon. Thats when doctors are making their rounds, dictating procedures, doing admits, diagnostic tests etc. How many patients do you know getting diagnostic tests done between 8pm and 6am? Not a whole lot, its pretty much common sense, but I also speak from my own personal experience.
I do ER reports mostly and just haven't had work when it used to come in - mona

My main acct is ER so still doesn't make sense to me.
Right, you still just are'nt gonna get much 3rd shift - dictation unless its ER. Mid-morning/early aftern

when dictation starts to really pick up. Not sure why that does not make sense to you. We live in the US, most people sleep during 3rd shift hours, not a whole lot of activity going on overnight with the exception of emergency room. Really is a no-brainer that work picks up around 11am and early evenings.
If you've worked here for years, though - - sm

You would know that there was always work at ALL times.
I understand that, but the OP asked why it comes in - at 11 and I answered to my knowledge.

Not sure if I did something or not, but all of the sudden my ASR headings are not like they have been.  The blue lines are gone and the next heading is directly below the text of the previous.  I  think this was how it was when a new version came out, but I was able to "fix" it to the old way.

I'm getting so tired of having a report or two, then NJA, then while waiting another report comes, then NJA, etc., etc., early in my shift.  Sure, we have been encouraged to just check back later on and work then.  I really don't know why they suggest or even allow this to happen.  When you log on during another shift, all you're doing is taking work from those folks who normall work then.  They in turn are then told to work later too and this cycle of NJA just ...
