Nuance - Escription - "Special" Foot Pedal - MidwestMT
Posted: Jul 11, 2013
Hi!!
We had our meeting at the hospital today with Nuance about being onboarded with them. We were told by HR that the hospital will let us keep the computers we have been working on, but that Nuance will be sending us the "special" Escription foot pedals. Is this true? I have never worked on Escription before. Does it require its own pedal?
I am so heartsick about this transition but at this time, I have no other options. I am going to go into this with the thought of doing my work, not paying attention to the demeaning emails, etc. like some of you say on here, and just try to get through it as best I can. Not sure what else I can do at this point. I am 55 years old. Kind of an old dog kind of thing.....
Good luck to you and keep your eyes open for - other opportunities.

Read the posts about the TAA program that we are petitioning. Especially good for us that are over 50!
I saw the petition was denied last I checked. - nm

Sending Nuance's Foot Pedal Back Jul 03, 2013Hi,
Anyone else recently quit this ridiculous farce of a company called Nuisance... I mean Nuance, and they never mentioned one word about having you ship back the foot pedal? Do they eventually send out a notice to ship it back or you won't get your last paycheck? Just curious... No big loss, my paycheck that is, as I was earning less than minimum wage. Got a pacycheck for 80 hours that was less than $200 a week. Seems they have it set up to purposely m ...

TIA ...
