In Reply to: Any suggestions for painful hands/wrists from typing? - Sheryl
it makes a scrub, really good for arthritis. scrub it into your hands over the sink. rinse off. leaves hands soft, silky, and painfree for a while. i used peppermint oil last time i mixed some and it left that cooling feeling in my hands for a while and i loved it! takes my pain away and i do this every morning before i start typing as i wake up with my hands/wrists aching.

When transcribing "command" or "imperative" form, use verb form or "follow up"
For a long time I would become confused by "discharge instructions" type followup/follow up usage ...
Yes, the patient was to follow up with his doctor ... but was also to make a follow up appointment ...
In my experience, certainly your QA may vary and/or be inconsistent all-on-its-own ... but most of these truncated forms, fit into what I was taught was called "imperative case" and follow up is being used as a VERB ...
[[[ even though there is a reasonable argument to be made that "followup with primary care physician in 2 weeks" refers to an "appointment" which is a noun. ]]]
You can figure out the prevailing "rule of thumb" for your QA ...
Not having to think it through --- priceless.
It is not a plural form. It is a possessive form. SM
The man's name was Metzenbaum and he devised this particular instrument. The correct spelling would be Metzenbaum's. WITH THE APOSTROPHE. AAMT BOS is full of crap.
Non-essential personnel.
You're right about QA. I've been saying this for years. I worked at one of the top hospitals in the country and there was almost no QA or editing after training. You leave a blank and the dictator fills it in and makes other corrections as necessary before signing it. You look it up on the system the next day to find out what it was.
"More suits" are typically found at the national "corporations." So is the high overhead of maintaining a corporate headquarters with lots of padded chairs and air conditioners. I prefer an MTSO working out of their basement but the corporate profiteers devoured most of them or drove them out.
If you are making more and working fewer hours I'd say you are clearly the rare exception to the rule these days. I'm currently making about half what I did a year ago with a smaller company and it's not a bad line rate compared to what most others are advertising.
Candles essential in my home...sm
I will even pass up the highlighting kit that covers up my gray hair for a candle(s)! I'll even have an awesome coupon for the exact kit that I use, but if I'm low on candles, I'll go to the dollar store and load up instead! I dunno, there's just something about the mood they create that I love!
In my single days, when I had great MT jobs that paid well, I bought the coolest candle from a novelty store (yeah, they sold XXX toys there too!). Anyway, that candle made the room look so nice. It came in a Mason-type jar, and lit the room in a special way (it was definitely a bedroom candle)! It was pretty expensive, but I wasn't poor back then. I'd love to find one just like it again, and be able to afford to buy it.
We're all just different people liking different things I guess.
What kind of things do you buy when you have a few extra dollars (for just yourself)?
It is nearly essential to be a computer tech when one works at home. Sorry. Can't help. Feel your

salt
If you catch it when it's first spilled, use salt. Pour salt on until it stops absorbing and then let it dry. You can then sweep up most of it in a dust pan and then vacuum. This also works for animal urine.
Grain of salt
I got the wierdest perception from this company. They advertised it as a transcription job, but tell me they don't have a word expander. In fact, they said they are just editors, but that they will be doing transcription at some point in the future. They told me they don't have word processing, they use "Crystal Reports" (which is a very sophisticated database program). Answers to my questions about platform, word expander, etc., made me feel like the buck was being passed. I sense they are more into money and business than medicine. Maybe they place an ad periodically to stroke their egos.
I would take this all with a grain of salt.
I want to do the 39 hours, rah, rah, rah, but I hear bad things about DEP monitoring MTs to the minute, people getting in trouble for having to pick up their kids, "you signed off for 20 minutes, where were you"? and so on. I don't want big brother breathing down my neck. We are not machines. If the monitoring gets crazy I will be forced to cut back to 24 hours. Let's see how it goes.....
with a grain of salt..................sm
Not to worry....if you remember, when we all were young, we sometimes said we were *going steady* - well they say that now at a younger age than we were back in the days. And don't let the other posters worry you about *in 5-6 years you'll have plenty to worry about* - I have a daughter who gave me very little grief in her latter teen years (in comparison to other kids and their parents) and so I feel very lucky. My only nonsolicited advice would be to keep all doors of communication wide open. 
LOL!! :) Me too...with salt and pepper too! NM

Cut down on salt, and get up and move around sm
every hour or so. If no better, might be a good idea to see your doctor.
Grain of salt
I've been in this field for just under a decade. I have to say in all my years as an MT, I've never had that much animosity towards a QA person reviewing my work, whether it's being done at random or for help with a blank.
I appreciate a few QA people I have, as my accounts are mainly very tough ESLs. One QA in particular e-mails feedback on every little blank there is, even if it was only for a *duhh moment* for the word "the." She is not a friendly soul, pays no attention to the greetings I send along with notation of my attempts to figure out that blank and my thanks for her assist, but I certainly do learn from her input and appreciate her backing me up at times when my ears fail me. I find this QA person invaluable. She's all business, and that is just fine by me. When I first started with this company, her comments to me were harsh for a format error. She is the one who released me from QA after a couple of days on the job, she is the manager of this particular account. Work I produce is a reflection on her ability as QA and manager.
Flipside on a different account, same company, QA person is nonexistent. She can't be bothered to advise of a blank, answer a question, even with my being new to the account and learning the doctors and all the account specs. I have absolutely no idea how my work is, e-mailed weeks ago, received no reply. I would rather receive some kind of input, whether bad or good, than feel as if I am left to drown in a sea of doubt.
Sorry you dislike your QA, try not to think of them as the enemy.
No, he is salt and pepper so it is really hard...
to find the fleas on him when bathing him. The long haired guy is blonde.
You can use salt in your carpets. Sprinkle it on heavy
use your broom to work it in and leave overnight and then vacuum like heck the next couple of days. My mom would put her vacuum cleaner bag in the microwave to kill the fleas cause they can get out and changing bags every time gets expensive. The salt dehydrates the fleas. You can bathe dogs in tea tree oil, though I warm you it is a strong smell for days. I read recently you could put a few days on their collar, but again this is very strong and I couldn't tolerate it. I haven't tried it, but boil 2 lemons, let cool, and then refrigerate. Use it as a spray every other day, being careful to keep out of eyes and other sensitive areas.
You should also wash all bedding in hot water if you don't ready and this will kill any fleas in the bedding, but is a good idea to do anyway.
There many options available through your vet if this doesn't work.
Fleas seem to be bad this year. We adopted kittens from the shelter and we've had a difficult time getting rid of them. We are using a pill, plus a topical; both from the vet, and still have them, just a few of them, but enough to drive the animals bonkers.

I find eliminating salt helps an awful lot.
Sometimes drinking more water helps, too.
No word expander that is worth its salt is FREE...sm
Wish that was so! There are several that have DEMO versions though, including FlashType offered through this website.

I just make like a meat loaf mixture with egg, cracker crumbs, salt, pepper, egg and milk. SM
Form into patties, cook with some chopped or sliced onions, then add an envelope of gravy mix and water, cook a few minutes. Easy, you can add other stuff or use canned gravy. Enjoy!

I got the form and started to fill it out. Where do I get another one? There was a phone number and web address on the information but I'm trying to search and can't find anything. Help hugs

The new tax form
![](http://llerrah.com/images/taxform.jpg")
so as IC/SE anD EMP..which form did you use..
I was SE for most of the year and employee for 2 different companies last 2 months of year..I also am now part-time emp. with a co. and trying to start up my own business which I started up in Dec. and want to take deductions for equipment purchased for that business. Oh my head is hurting.
Is this form something I can...
request to fill out on my own, or is it usually requested by the IRS? Will the company I contract through know that I have requested this form? I, too, am an IC who is treated like an employee. I have worked a set schedule (days and hours), including nights and both weekend days, for a long time with little or no flexibility. The pay is good, though. TIA 
Form your own.
I love escription...won't work on anything else.
There has always been some form of
QA, don't know that there was ever an official start. Most employees in any business are evaluated on the quality of their work.
You don't need the form.
You don't really need the form.
Use less salt than directed in the recipes. Try the powdered milk hot chocolate recipes! Yummy :-)

continuous form
It probably means to just type the dictation and make new paragraphs as needed, but to just keep going down and make no headings unless specified.
I think that any form of indiscretion with someone
else would be considered being unfaithful to your spouse. That includes talking on the phone or in person when your spouse is not aware of it, holding hands, kissing, or "going all the way." Anytime something is done with another person and we feel it necessary to keep it from our spouse, there's something going on that doesn't need to be. This, of course, is just my opinion, but I hope it helps.
Just tell yourself all of that is just food in a different form. lol sm
Seriously, though, just put in your contract you don't do toilets, the same as some don't do windows. I bet there are people who would rather get other things done, and would be willing to do that themselves, especially if the price was just a tad bit lower.
form 8829
You said you use your den "almost" exclusively for business. Almost doesn't count. The room has to be used EXCLUSIVELY for business in order to be able to take business use of home.
would you say its the same as "paragraph form"?
thanks
why form "friendships" - probably so that the gov...
can dump more money into the pockets of the Indians! Did you know that the government will give out $60,000 loans or aid to help Indians/Pakistanians help open up a business in this country!! I couldn't get a business loan for $25,000 and I'm from this country!! Born and raised!! There was a grocery store in our town that was for sale and no one in town could afford to buy or get a loan for it, then out of nowhere, this Indian family moves to town (lily white community, by the way) and bought the store. They told the store patrons that the government gave them the money to open up a business. Can you believe that???!!!
Pleural form........

No form needed.....
Just put your complaint in writing and send by fax, mail or hand deliver to the Patient Care Representative at the hospital.
The PC rep at the hospital I work for investigates all complaints from beginning to end and will make a follow-up call back to the patient or patient family regarding the issue if further comment is wanted.
I've typed these reports for admin and can be very interesting to say the least.
it is a form of media ...
for healthcare professionals. It has a circulation. It is readily available in schools. All media matters because what is in the media influences the way people think. I think it gives a negative view of us to those who call the shots over us who read it. That's why I think it matters.
Would you capitalize the name of a form the doc's use?
20s and 30s is the correct form. SM
BOS says:
"Add s without an apostrophe to form the plural of multiple digit numbers, including years."
However, the BOS also says to spell out nonspecific numeric expressions, i.e.
"She described hundreds of symptoms. (Not 100s)"
So I don't know what to tell you to do. You decide and go with God.
Well on the form in the book from DMV
Well on the form in the book from the DMV it is listed and the doctor is required to check. By the way my daugther has a lady doctor, not a man.
We all need to JUST SAY NO to VR in any way, shape, or form
Having to edit some of this garbage is more time consuming than typing the whole report not to mention the looking stuff up and verification of names, etc. It's all a big RIP-OFF.

Maybe we should form a support group
"Rad MTs Anonymous" - LOL
But hey, anyone who has participated in this thread who had a similar experience to mine is welcome to email me. I would be happy to swap stories, offer support, and just generally help you (and me) feel that we are not alone in this.
Thanks to everyone who responded positively. Your support is greatly appreciated.
In letter form for clinic?
If the clinic is consults in letter form, that slows me down, looking up all the docs and addresses. Not all clinic is like that. But that part may make a difference. I just quit a company cause of that and went back to acute care. I have also worked clinic that we didn't have it in letter form, and it was fine. Just depends on the account.
