Pt has hypotension and is started on s/l *tri-dur* drip. NM. TIA

Same patient as below who needed the sternal rubbing. He has massive GI bleeding and in the ER the doc says: "Protonix and s/l senospirin drip will be initiated."

I have been looking for a MT job since April when I finished my course training with MTatHome out of Texas. I apply for spots that areposted as open but then get email back saying that they have no openings. I have been in the Medical profession for 6 years as a CNA and I am getting ready for nursing school in the Fall of 2010. I am just wanting to know what it will take to get my foot in the door in the MT field and get a job. If anyone has any suggestion or can help me ...

I just finished my FIRST shift and when I checked my line count I was shocked. Twice as much as I can do with MQ. There is something seriously wrong at MQ. At my new job, my CPL is a little less than MQ but not much. ...

I understand schools are going to say that the MT field is growing, but those of you that have been out there awhile, is it realll ...

Hello everyone! I just found this forum. I currently work part-time as a legal virtual assistant. My background is in personal injury law and would like to get my feet wet and start medical and legal transcribing. Would anyone be so kind as to advise how I start. I already hold a B.A. in political science and do not think I need to go through a AA program. Bottom line, I am confused and don't know where to begin. Please help! Thank you! ...

Hello all! It has been some time since I have posted here but used to visit quite often. My daughter-in-law is just about to finish my transcription course materials (she has finished the book work and is working on transcribing the voice files). She has already started applying to companies, however she is running up against the same issue we have all run up against as newbies "experience required." I am willing to sign a confidentiality agreement, have her work beside ...

Hey everybody, I just needed to vent a little bit. I started my first day on my first job, and it went absolutely horrible. I was using the Emdat InScribe platform, which seems easy enough, but they have sooo many templates that the doctor should be using and isn't. My first few reports were okay, but then everything went downhill. I'm supposed to use the templates, but half the time, I had to erase 3/4 of them because it wasn't what he was saying. The wrong templates would load, ...

Hello All! I have recently decided to begin a career in MT, and am trying to weigh my education options. I have a bachelor's degree in Hearing, Speech & Language Sciences, so I'm great with interpreting speech/language and am also pretty good at deciphering English as a second language. I've also worked for a hospital scheduling outpatient testing for the past three years, so I have a bit of a background in medical terminology (still so much to learn!) and the inner workings ...

I just wanted to post that I completed my first week of college. The first day was scary, but by the second day I felt much more at ease. My first class happened to algebra, so wish me luck. I know that I am making the right decision, so I am hoping that I can start counting the days to when I can just give my notice. It is going to be tough, but it definitely is going to be worth it. ...

STILL out there. And I only sent out about 4 resumes. I am averaging 25.00 an hour TRAINING. I am NOT kidding. Don't give up just yet. Keep looking. There are jobs out there. You just need to find them. I would give you the name of this awesome place, but unfortunately, I'm not going to do that just yet. I know I took the last spot they were hiring for. BUT, I'm also having A LOT of family issues going on right now, so if I decide not to go past my training period wit ...

I am totally worn out. I have never in my life worked so hard for so little money. They nit-pick everything to death and there are so many pages of instructions that you just can't remember everything. I don't know how these companies expect us to manage a gazillion accounts, each with different directions, etc., but they do. McDonald's is looking better all the time. ...

Gathering information, for the life of me my mind has blocked out that trainwreck.. ...

Well folks, email today regarding yet another MQ program- Account Trustee- those of us with good quality scores have the HONOR of sending reports directly through to the client with 2 blanks or less, thus bypassing QA. Instead of addressing the issue WHY QA is so backlogged (could it be because so many QA were underpaid and have left) this is the new decision. ...

If we do not check our screen where patient name, info, attending, date of birth, blah blah blah is not correct or we did not check to make sure the dictator name is correct or attending name in the screen, of did not fill in attending or dictator for, this will have to be notified to HIPAA. If company does not notify HIPAA that an MT made a mistake and did not correct patient name, dictator name, attending, etc., my company will be fined big time and possibly the MT too. Honestly, ...

I finally graduated from MT training and wonder if anyone is willing to give a new graduate a beginning chance. I have filled out many applications but the bottom line is that they want 3-5 years of experience. How does one get a foot in the door. Thanks celloman ...
