My goodness is it really Thursday again?! I totally forgot to write in here yesterday!


Now I am working on a specific account so I'm paying special attention to names, format, procedures, etc. I think the doctors as a whole are pretty easy to understand. I'm getting used to them anyway. Today was the third full day I've been working on this account. When you have other reports to compare, it makes our job sooooo much easier!


I really like how there is a mixture of different specialties. When I first heard the word "account" I wasn't really sure what to expect. An account, from what I understand, is the specific facility. So, as we work on our acute care experience it will usually be a hospital I think. I am working on a hospital now, I have the website for the hospital and it's really cool to know that these dictations were just done a few days ago and that it's a real person talking! Somehow seeing a picture of the hospital made it really real for me.


More sympathetic too. Sometimes when I hear the doctors burping in my ear I get really mad. Today I was thinking about their job. They work all day in a crazy hospital and then at the end of their long day, they have to pick up a phone or machine and tell it what they did to every patient. That has to be pretty annoying. So--while I still don't really enjoy being burped at, I guess it's acceptable that they're yawning in my ear. (How forgiving of me!!)
