Cognitive function word help please - See Message

Posted: Mar 13, 2014

Nursing home patient has cognitive deficits: "Prior to discharge to long-term care, question raised regarding the patient's ability to reside at home independently outside of a supervised living context. Will request occupational therapy, perform a (s/l) "TELLS" assessment and follow up cognitive testing." Thanks.

Perhaps "ADL" assessment - Beach Glass Lover

for "activities of daily living"

I know what ADL stands for and that's not it. I heard "tells" - n/m

My psychic abilities about what you know and don't know are obviously on the fritz.

I wasn't mocking you. Just telling you that it wasn't ADL is all - no harm no foul

Are all caps yours - Or did doc spell out t-e-...

Just wondering if you're assuming all caps, or if the dictator said t-e-l-l-s. Or if dictator said "tells."

It sounded like "tells" I put it in all caps. Is it an abbreviation maybe? TELLS? - n/m

I took their test at the mttest testing site and failed the screening portion! Now I'm not one to toot my own horn, but I have been in the MT business for 18 years and have never failed a test and I have taken 100s of them on mttest. So I'm stumped. Anybody else take the screening test and fail. Right after I took their test and failed the screening, I took another company's test and sailed through each portion and second company's test had a lot of th ...

Have you ever used the break function simply because you had a dictator that was so horrible that you got frustrated and sent it back? I know that we are not supposed to do this and that MQ supposedly keeps track of how many breaks we use but I have to admit I have done this no occasion. I had a report so bad a couple of weeks ago which was over 1000 seconds long and an ESL doctor, not to mention scratchy sound, etc. About halfway through this thing I had already spent nearly 2 ...

Good morning ladies and gentleman from MQ. I need your help. On the ASR reports, how do you ALL CAPS a sentence? Here's the deal . . . Say under allergies, the MD dictates no known drug allergies. What I do is hilite the sentence and then Control, Shift, A. After I do that, the sentences comes out No Known Drug Allergies (initial caps only). Then I have to do the Control, Shift, A again and it will switch to ALL CAPS. Is there an easier way to do th ...

For *pain* scale (1-10), i was taught to add the range if not dictated. Example: D: Pain was a 5. T: Pain was a 5/10. I'm not familiar with *function* scale. This is a spine surgeon. This particular patient is having neck and shoulder issues (if that matters). Is there a specific *function* scale? If so, what is the range and do you add it like the pain scale, or do you guys just type as dictated without adding the range? ...

I must hit alt L 20 times a day instead of alt K. Seems like I do it when I'm in front of a word like "in" or "the" - you know, something that is in a document 1000 times.... I usually do alt z to undo it, but once that is done, the red box no longer works until it gets to the last occurrence of the word alt z corrected. How do I disable the alt L function? Is there a line to remove from a macro? ...
