swear words
Subject: swear words
What should I do if the doctor dictates, and didn't say to use quotes, ...patient says she still feels like sh**. ??!! The word even came up on the spell checker! I feel nervous about leaving the word there. I wonder if I should leave it as a blank.  The account is not verbatim. Just looking for some suggestions. I haven't had this happen before in 20+ years as an MT!

Categories however should always be arabic (1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 0)
