don't care for it. too many fields to fill
Posted By: dcc on 2005-11-03
In Reply to: EMDAT - Wondering..
in because it seems like the demo's are never there and of course you don't get paid for that, then you have to wait for extra screens to come up before you can select the dr/cc/patient name/etc. there's no way to drop the normals in directly without using the menu, the Expander is more hassel than good. it's straight forward to use but I feel it is a slow process since you can't just start typing without filling in numerous fields.

Isn't it time to go to the fields?
Please Amish lady, go pick the pumpkins and the gourds, isn't it that time of year? Then hitch up your horse and buggy and take them down to Wal-Mart to try to sell them.
But there are lots of fields where you can come right out
what you get a degree in. Something like sociology, anthropology, etc. - no, probably not many jobs. Psychology you really need a graduate degree. Social work you can find jobs with a bachelor's but not that well paying, so would need a graduate degree.
But look at a lot of the medical professions - heck, nursing, physical therapy, respiratory therapy, medical technology (except they call it something else now), radiology, pharmacy, etc. etc. - all are BOOMING. Just gotta be smart about what you get your degree in.
Have not in MT field, but in other fields
and how many of us women are the sole support of our families? Many...
Alt + F9 toggles fields on and off.

You need two commands for fields.
You need to add the End command after each Ctrl + F or all your text after the field will be inside the field when you expand it.
switching fields
Many big nationals have every specialty now. If you work for one, ask them if you could just do rad and path. You might find path interesting but rad could be a tad boring.
switching MT fields
I've been doing acute care for almost 30 years, but I would really like to do radiology and/or pathology. What's the best way(s) to get into these fields?
Jumping to fields
Hi everyone! For years I have been jumping to fields in Word by using the F11 key. Does anyone know if I can customize my keyboard to use alt/c to jump around and how to set that up?
Thanks!
I have never seen a white man/woman in the fields.
Who would want to stand in 100 plus degree temps or, in winter, nonstop rain, chilly temps, working the fields or tending the cattle? No one who was raised with sliced bread; they'd probably starve first.
I was married to an ag man (cattle). The immigrants come and go across the border often (visiting family). It is not difficult.
They are keeping the price of the food you eat down.
Admin: I get cut off a lot in the subject/name fields.
nm
If you are gpod, you can make a LOT more doing MT than either of those fields.

Wherever you want the field, do ctrl F9. Once you have all the fields....sm
in you do F11 to "jump" to each field. Makes life a lot easier.
Hit Alt F9 after you insert your file and you should see your fields. nm

Inscribe help... QA marker and fields
On my acct I am supposed to put brackets and put the time of the marker inside [1.12] for QA to review.
When I put this in and continue, my typing jumps to that field and erases over and over.
Can someone tell me how to prevent this??? It is driving me insane.
Using fields in Instant Text
If you are typing in MSWord you can create fields for the places where you want to fill in the different type of phrases using shortcuts.
See post:
http://fitaly.com/board/itmainforum/posts/5849.html
Add fields with Ctrl + F9 and jump to them with F11. sm
Shift + F11 will take you back to a previous field.
F12 is the shortcut for opening SaveAs.
Does anyone use SmarType and Word using text fields {}? When I F11..sm
to the next field {} it causes SmarType to lock up. Does anyone know how to fix this?
thanks so much
Make 12 cpl but constantly rewinding, going in/out of fields
If you can utilize speed typing engines, have same docs, the format is user friendly, it is possible, in the long run, to make as much as I do at 12 cpl.
I think you should try it for two weeks and consider that after three months you will be twice as fast due to familiarity.
I understand your frustration but this is happening in all fields.
It affects every work situation as technology advances, etc.
The fact is one cannot expect to have a lifelong career in any one line of work without experiencing some times of either changing with the flow or stepping into another line of work.
hit insert button before filling in fields.
see if that works for you. You will need enough space in between or you will type over the next field.
you also can do columns but I am not good at those; hopefully someone else will come along with info on that.
There are ESL specialists in all fields & all over the country. You've just been extremely lucky
s
The easiest way for this one is to insert blank fields with Ctrl + F9. You jump to
each field with F11. You use Shift+F11 if you skip a field and need to go back. If you don't see your fields in the doc, hit Alt+F9 to show or hide fields.
Bookmarks and cross-reference fields are used when you have static information you need to pull into a field. That isn't the case when you are dealing with variable info.
You'll hear this claim in all fields by "the suits"
I've said it before and I'll say it again...back that sh^t up with a specific name or a place so there can be actual consequences. I can throw anything in quotes and say I heard it from somewhere or someone. It holds no water and only serves to get people workedup for an invisible fight.
Am I doubting what she heard is true? Maybe, maybe not. It can't be proven because there is no factual evidence provided. However, my mother was an LPN and she always said her higherups referred to her as nothing more than an overpaid candystriper or overpaid a$$ wiper. My father, a machine mechanic, said he was referred to as an overpaid janitor. It's a wicked old and wicked lame argument to get the reader or listener riled up to basically do nothing and it's amateur stuff. But, that's just me.
SHOW US THE NAMES! Then we can gather our pitchforks, burning keyboards, and Betty Crocker aprons and go to war!
maybe just let them fill it in?
It's a long blank for just time ???
I think she has probably just had her fill
More than hate sounds like she has had 1 too many ESLs to listen to. Know 1 plenty, every report time after time is a little much. I csn understand the feeling, some.
Can someone fill me in?
Where is the new site/what transpired?
If you're trying to fill several
positions, why don't you list the name of your company? If you had a company you wouldn't be on this board trying to get someone to type 3 reports. Why don't you let one of your current transcriptionists type them. YA BIG FAT LIAR!
I MISSED IT-CAN YOU FILL ME IN?

Fill us in, we are in the dark...sm
What are you talking about, I am lost and am a Country fan.
Fill in work
I occasionally do fill-in opticianry work for local eye doctors.
Kinship care versus foster care/adoption
Having been placed in a position where I now have custody of my 3 YO granddaughter and going through the legal system, I sought an online network of relative caregivers for children. I would encourage you, especially since you are in Georgia, that if you take any children into foster care with the idea of adopting them, there is federal law that requires the state to take certain actions in a specific time frame. When a child is removed from it's bio parent(s), the state is required to investigate any possible relatives who can take the child before foster care is considered, but even before that, reunification with the parents is the priority. Once a child enters the system and is in the system for 15 out of any 22 months, the state is required to find permanent placement for the child.
The problem with this is that there are case workers who may favor a foster family and do not seek out relative care. I have a good friend in Georgia who had to fight all the way to the state level to get custody of her grandson after the child was placed from the hospital into a foster care home with the promise that the foster parents would be allowed to adopt. She has now adopted her grandson, but it was a long, hard battle to get the state to admit their own interests were placed above those of the child and/or family.
If you get a child placed through the state, please make certain there is not a relative who wants that child before you get your hopes up. The courts are now favoring return of children to relatives even after a child has spent years with a foster family who hoped to adopt them.
States get bonus federal funds by complying with the time lines and being able to close the case, so some states place children in foster care because it is easier than trying to locate relatives.
Didn't mean to go off on a tangent, but I can't imagine my sweet bella going to someone outside her family.
We do have our QA fill in names & addresses
All of our clients provide us names and addresses of referring physicians. Our QA maintains the lists, and we only ask that our MTs spell them phonetically. QA then corrects any mistakes.
As far as patient names, some doctors spell them for us and some do not. For those that don't, they get their reports back with their patient names spelled phonetically, and it's up to them to correct any mistakes.
Fill in the blank: You know you're getting old when....sm
1. For me, when a person I used to babysit from infancy until school age has completed his internal medicine residency and is in a private medical practice.
2. When I get up in the morning my knees and back crack so much that you can hear them at times in the next room (daughter asks "what's that cracking noise" will confirm this!)
But where in the world do you find someone to fill in? nm

FILL OUT THE FASA-YOU WILL BE SUPRISED
Make sure you fill out those FASA forms and private colleges want the Profile which helps. When my daughter was applying three years ago to college. I told her that she would have to take out student loans. She was looking into college at 40,000 a year. We filled out the FASA and profile. She is now going to a $35,000 a year college and we are only responsible for $13,000. She is on grants and scholarships. She still is taking out loans because she is a nursing student and her income will be greater than mine and my husband together. My 18 year old who is looking in colleges will have to do the same. I put braces on their teeth, paid for dancing, sports, activities, illnesses that we did not expect. I feel we gave them everything they needed and if they want to go college bad enough they will. My daughter has a 4.0 GPA. She had a 3.4 in High School We are there to support, we pay for car repairs, give her money for clothes etc. She is also on workstudy which gives her $50.00 a week spending money. Don't let the college tuitions scare you until you fill out those forms.
I had to miss it last night..Please fill me in?
I know who got voted off last night, but the radio station I listen to while driving to work was talking about how "drunk" Paula was last night and how she was making really off-the-wall comments. Boy, sounds like I really missed something! Did any of you feel like she was on something or drinking too much?
HA!! This sure would fill her time, wouldn't it?

Have you tried given your life to God. He can fill the void. nm

probably place of business and that is for them to fill in. nm

Yes, it will get buggy like that as you fill it up with entries sm
It's time to think of buying a real expander. My recommendation is Shorthand. They have a web site where you can purchase it. It is a wonderful program, much better than the autocorrect/autotext.
A shift differencial would help fill some of

Me too! Working at home, I fill up every 2 wks.

I haven't had to fill up in a couple of weeks.
I don't go anywhere too often during the summer or I ride my bike. I think it's about $2.29 for the cheap stuff.
It would be just as arbitrary to penalize QA for not being able to fill in the blank. (sm)
The assumption is that all blanks are understandable. They are not.
Classy my ____--you fill in the blank....
--I saw the clip of Walters announcing Jones' failure to return. That was very practiced and classy, I'll hand her that; but then she's had lots of experience and people to help her craft such an announcement.
--I also saw the King show when Jones talked about what had been going on and why she did what she did. I thought that hat was very classy as well. Her being a lawyer certainly helped her craft her statement.
--Overall, I totally believe Jones' accounting of what happened, when, where, why and who knew what and who knew it when. She was quite clear, her timeline precise.
Her reasons for handling her announcement at the time and in the way that she did also made perfect sense if you listened to her closely and carefully.
I was in her situation once--unfairly "let go" and for totally bogus reasons from a large local San Francisco, CA, foundation.
I was told that I could tell anyone at the foundation anything I liked about my departure.
I was in shock at what had just happened, left my supervisor's office, wandered into the kitchen for something to eat/drink.
A co-worker (high level staff) was there and I spoke to him that I had just been let go. We talked briefly, he offered his sympathy.
After he left the room, my supervisor swooped in, telling me that it was not a good idea to talk about it the way I did...blah, blah, blah....she could only have been in the hallway, listening at the door.
Yeah, Walters, et. al. did do what Jones said they did. And the way Walters handled everything did indeed look "classy"--with time, experience, and help, how could Walters go wrong?
Jones told the truth from start to finish on King's show and the View Crew and network couldn't/wouldn't handle it and did not want to face the fall out; and, they didn't want to lose face.
The further complicating problem was that as a public personality, Jones had additional public outlets to tell the truth.
IF Walters had: Simply kept her mouth shut, just weathered Jones' early initial announcement on air that day, deferred all questions of why Jones' contract had not been renewed to Jones' (citing privacy and confidentiality), responding to all askers with a 'no comment', and referring all explanations to Jones'she wouldn't be in the uncomfortable position she is in now. Walters would not have been so exposed, AND she would not have needed to get to Larry King in advance to cover her ____, to explain anything, and trying to look good, thereby maintaining her "classy" reputation.
Yeah, it was a business decision all right, handled badly and then it came back to bite Walters, et. al. in the butt.
Whether you like Jones or not, she chose to tell the truth and, as such, she had nothing to hide. Brava.
We DO listen to the dictation! How else would we fill in blanks?

was this university account you had to fill in demos for?

How do you fill out forms in Adobe Reader 8.
I am referring an MT to a company I work for and to get the referral bonus I have to fill out this form in Adobe Reader and E-mail it to HR. Well, I don't know how to do that. One friend said to copy it in Word and fill it out that way. It won't let me do that.
If it was a clinic, it might have been urgent care, but it was NOT acute care. sm
Acute care refers to work in an acute care setting, a hospital, doing at least History and Physicals, Discharge Summaries, Consultations, Surgery notes, Emergency Department notes, and much more, including GI procedures, Cardiology procedures, Neurological procedures, Pulmonary Function Studies. It goes on and on and it means and acute care hospital setting, not a clinic.
That's true. My parents refused to fill out the FAFSA
because they weren't going to help me go to college at all. The school counselor just blew me off after hearing that. They wouldn't even talk to me at all and I couldn't qualify for anything on my own without my parents filling out that stupid form. "Adult" children are considered dependents by the government for financial aid considerations until they are either 22, have been married for a year, or have children. I was 18 and a high school graduate but still couldn't afford to go to college working two part-time jobs for a total of 50 hours per week. I wasn't able to go to college until after I was married with two kids to qualify for student loans.
The actual operation you're performing is Fill Down.
I should have mentioned that before. It's a shortcut that eliminates the need to copy and paste. It's one of many and is located under the Edit menu. For example, series can be used to increase in increments, like for dates.
