Psychiatry word book help...

The one from HPI is $18 and will be out of print soon. The publishing year is 1998. The one from Stedman's is $36 and published in 2002. Does anyone know if there's a big difference between the two? I've never done psychiatry before but will be soon. I much prefer the books from HPI but if the information in the Stedman's book is much more current then I'll go with them. Thanks!

Medical Word Book by Sloan, Surgical Word Book by sm
Tessier, Dorland's dictionary, BOS, and my very fave I think is now out of print but called Spellright by Rice.
Updating surgical references - new Stedmans Word Book, Tessier Surgery Book or others - best one in

I went from WP5.1 to Word with the help of this book. sm

Stedman's word book nm
The Surgical Word Book
is the best! I do almost exclusively OP notes and I couldn't do it without this book. Steadman's is also excellent, but if you get Steadmans you will have to get two books (Equipment Words and Surgery Words). The Surgical Word Book has both together in one book.

The Surgery Word Book can be ordered off this site.
If you mean the Surgical Word Book, it's the best! nm

Stedman's Word Book
I just started my first MT job about a month ago and I could not do without my Stedman's Orthopaedic & Rehab Words book. If in the future I get into something else I would definitely buy another one of these!
Also have Saunders Pharmaceutical Word Book, a Stedman's Medical Dictionary and The AAMT Book of Style - all very useful.
I just use the surgical word book. There
are three pages of bandages in there.
The Surgical Word Book is the Bomb for me!
It has so much in it besides surgical stuff. I then use Quick Look Drug Book, Stedman's Dictionary, and Sloane's Med Word Book. I love books but Google as well - usually double reference. And, let me not forget, the BOS2
I agree. Best surgical word book!!!!! nm

Sounds like my Surgical Word Book sm
by Claudia Tessier.
Was it the Surgery Word Book by Tessier? nm

Two: Dorlands and The Surgical Word Book -- SM
I use secure online reference sites for everything else.
If you only bought 1 stedman's word book, what would it be?
Just got a new job (!) and want to take advantage of discount books from my old job (!). Don't know what specialties I'll be working on, general acute care AFAIK. The only book I've ever owned is Dorland's dictionary. I'm leaning towards Medical and Surgical Equipment.... but would be really happy if anyone has any ideas for me, thanks!
And I may just Go Wild and buy two.
Surgical Word Book (Tessier, NOT Stedman's). nm

Tessier's as mentioned & Surgical Word Book
By far, Tessier Surgical Word Book! The Bomb!

Better than Word for Dummies is Cheryl Flanders' book.
www.cherylflanders.com
And no, I don't get anything for recommending it. It's just a great book for MTs that use MS Word.
Tessier's Surgical Word book is great for ops

Stedman's M&S Equipment Word Book is my bible. nm

Get a Stedman's Ortho & Rehab word book, . . .
and you can check. Put them into your word Expander correctly (capped or not), and you won't have to try to remember which tests are and aren't capped. :)
I agree, don't like the QLDB but I do like Saunders Pharmaceutical Word Book
That is one book I purchase yearly.
The Surgical Word Book by Claudia Tessier (see message)
is set up like that. It is black with silver and GREEN lettering.
Love, love, LOVE this book! Good luck!
Medical Transcriptionist's Guide to Microsoft Word book
Does anybody have this book? Is it worth the money to buy it if you are pretty comfortable creating macros and such in Word already? Just wondering.... I am always looking for new ways to increase my speed and make things easier. Any info would be great from someone who has this book. Thanks!
I have an ollllld Ortho word book circa 1995
that actually isn't too bad! I just got back into ortho and I need to update, but most of the basic anatomy terms don't really change, so I would think 2005 would work fine for you.
Also onelook.com as the Dorland's links right off there. Book would be Tessier's Surgical Word

I'm thinking about buying Saunders Pharmaceutical Word Book 2007 on CD/ROM...sm..
I've never bought a drug book on CD/ROM but I'd like to try it. I'm guessing it would be quicker than looking everything up in a book. I'm trying to get away from looking things up online because everytime I stop and look something up online I end up checking email, ebay, all the boards, etc., and not focusing on my work. They're so much temptation on the internet!
I've bought one book (QLDB) back in 2000 so I need an update! They sell the Saunders Drake & Drake Pharmaceutical Word Book on CD/ROM and in the book form as a package or you can buy them separately. I'm wondering why someone would buy both.
Any advice before I buy would be appreciated.
Psychiatry
Because so much of it is so unbelievable - it really gives you an insight into the human mind and human nature.
I like psychiatry, OB-GYN and PEDS. sm
I do not like cardiology or orthopedics.
Psychiatry Transcription
I posted regarding my daughter having done podiatry transcription for 5 years. She also did psychiatry transcription and is willing to help me with these terms. I am mostly looking for something part time. I work in administration for a small hospital and will be doing their Op Reports at night, but it is only 2 nights a week, and they are mostly stuff that can be done in "norms". I am trying to get back "in the grove" and would like to be able to work at home. My husband has COPD, and I would like to be close by for him.
Psychiatry format help
I am testing, so I can't really call for help. The way it is typed will make or break my score, and I have not been able to find any online exapmles to help me for sure.
The Dorland's Cardiology Word Book is good, too. Might find books at half.com even if a few years

Stedmans Med & Surgical Equip words and Tessiers Surgical Word Book (3rd Ed). I'd be lost
without them.
Just make a note in your book and go on. Every book I read you can find an error
or 2. Nobody is perfect. Lucky you only paid $60. New it is $80 or more.
I would buy book by Dog Whisperer. His TV shows covers things like this and would think his book mi

Stedmans Med $ Surgical Equip words, Path and Lab words, and Tessiers Surgical Word book (3rd
edition). I never buy drug books anymore. Waist of money in my opinion. New drugs come out so often, it's best to use the web.
Quick Look Drug Book (book & CD/ROM)..sm..
Does anyone use both. I'm definitely getting the CD/ROM and am debating about buying both. I don't see any reason to have both but there could be something I don't know.
I noticed CD/ROMs are on backorder but they're selling downloadable versions. I can handle that.
The Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words is probably my most used book and then the Lab Words book. GL! nm

Info/help on open Word 2007 docx with Word 2003.
I have a friend who sent me a document with .docx extension, presumably Word 2007. I can open it in Word 2003; however, all I see are musical notes and highlighting, no text (this is a document with words and highlighting only, no pictures, music notes, etc.). I tried to open this with Notepad and only see the usual gibberish.
I know I opened another 2007 Word doc before and I remember seeing the converter load at that time but that was probably a year ago. Is there something that has changed that I'm not aware of?
Darn Microsoft.
Is any one running ExText with Word 2000 and EditScript with Word 2003 sm
I am interested to know if anyone is running two platforms with a different version of Word on one computer.
I am running eScription's ES with Word 2003 and want to run ExText but their version of Word is 2000. Has anyone done this or doing it now. If so, have you run into any problems.
I can't seem to get a straightforward answer from the Techs at either company. I can't just load ExText and jeopardize it interfering with eScription.
I am interested to hear any and all comments. Thank you so much in advance for any help!
it is attached to your version of Word. Open Word and it'll be on your tool bar. NM

I type the letter "l" in IT and the word cholelithiasis is my word selected?Why?
I want to get rid of this. Entered left again but it is still giving me cholelithiasis as the only word option to select from.
This is why I find this program crazy. Everytime I sit down for the day, there is a whole new experience with it!!! I have to stop and think before each word!!!
