I recommend Gregg Reference Manual for

There are many other good books out there too. It took me months in medical transcription school to stop making the same punctuation mistakes over and over again. My teacher told me repeatedly, but sometimes it just takes awhile to sink in, so you might be better off taking a class or reading a great book on the subject. There are also a lot of websites to help with that sort of thing if you want to Google it. Have you looked into joining AHDI (formerly AAMT)? I believe they offer help from mentors.

Can anyone recommend any good acute care reference books
I am thinking of changing from clinic to acute care transcription. Can anyone recommend any good reference books that I should have? TIA
I took Gregg Shorthand in H.S. too. (sm)
I didn't think there were any more of us dinosaurs around anymore! You gave me a few good ideas, though. Some of my favorites are "tpt" for "The patient tolerated the procedure well" or "Tpd" The patient denies any history of" I have mucho entries, but after reading on these boards, I am trying to add more. The problem with my old age is that I can't remember a lot of my new ones. I guess I just have to keep trying to use them. I know I will remember then eventually.
Good old Gregg
Here's to us dinos!!!! We can still handle whatever comes along. I use tpt for the patient and toly for the pt tolerated the procedure, blah, blah, blah. I hated taking shorthand but I did it. So, when PRD came along, I said FINALLY a good use for that crap.
Wish Escription would mention that when they recommend the adapters or just recommend the one. nm
Yeppers -- good ole Gregg
I did the same thing and if I expand the abbreviation it has an X on the end - HPIX is my header expansion for HISTORY OF -- ya know da rest :)

Does anyone have a CPhone manual? I have found where I can buy one but I was hoping that someone might have one here they might email me.. Money is on the tight side.

Anybody know where to find an EXText manual to download? Previous posts with website addresses do not work.
The help file IS the manual.

Well i found the manual but...
It is saying that you have to get the ID from the person who created the encruption and if they didn't do it in Scribe you may not be able to decrypt them. I don't know if you have access to another decrypttion type program and can open them and then copy??

Straight Talk manual
I had emailed you and asked you to contact me for information regarding a manual. You can download it at Dictaphone's website, but since it has been a week or two since I emailed you I can't remember exactly where on their website. I guess just do some looking around. I think it was in frequently asked questions or something like that.
I looked in my manual but could find nothing-sm
to mute the ringer; however on the bottom-underside- of the phone there is a volume control that can be lowered.

Maybe you have a shortcut that's interfering. Did you check the manual for
the program shortcuts that you might be hitting thinking it's for something else?
See Classifieds for free C-Phone manual
There is a URL for free download for dictaphone C-phone 0421 and 0424.
Read the policy and procedure manual, maybe something is in there.
I do not believe there is a law, but you could check with the labor department.

Dictaphone Digital Dictation Straight Talk System 7120 user manual
I had posted earlier about a manual for the Straight Talk System 7120. If anyone has a manual, please let me know. Apparently someone responded but now I can't find the original posted message. Thanks!
I would recommend this sm
Call and ask how many characters define a line. They should be able to tell you how many characters they consider a line. Most companies usually pay a gross line and characterize it as no more than 72 characters to a line. I hope I explained this correctly, but you really do need to call and ask the company who made you the offer. Then you will have your answer.
I would not recommend...
Breitner. They do not pay for headers/footers, you do not have any way of keeping your line count, etc., etc.
Recommend
I love my Dyson!! Absolutely love it. Have had it for a year and it is great at picking up cat hair, etc.
if you are new, I recommend
The Medical Phrase Index by Lorenzini & Lorenzini Ley. Try to get the latest edition. It is worth it if you are new as you can look up part of a phrase and ideas of what the rest of the phrase could be.
Also, if you are into CD versions, I like the Dorlands Medical Dictionary. It is cheap, too.
The Surgical Word Book is a must, I think, if you do op notes.
Good luck to you!
May I recommend
a STEDMANS reference book on pathology and virology, allergies, immunology?
