We recently did a webinar on Shared Charting (a feature we recently released on EHR Tutor) and we thought that even the instructors who could not attend might appreciate one of the scenarios we covered.

Continuing Education Hours for Nursing License Renewal

One of our employees recently had to renew her nursing license and found herself stuck looking for continuing education credits to complete. It's amazing how quickly renewal years can sneak up and how elusive CE credits can be.
Latin Lessons and Medical Terminology?
Mar 27, 2014 6:11:00 PM / by user posted in medical terminology, free resources, Nursing Students
During the Pennsylvania HOSA State Leadership Conference, we met with a vendor who sold, in addition to other materials, Latin textbooks. Like he said, medical terminology seems to trip up even the most intelligent students. But when you boil all the terminology down to basics - most of it is based in Latin.
Free Patient Scenarios for Instructors

We love all things free (as you should know if you read our blog). One thing we've been searching for is a website with example Physician's Notes. Granted, all of our template patients in EHR Tutor have Physician's Notes already created for them, but we realize that instructors may want more charting to use in patient scenarios than any one system can provide.

We know that CNA programs don't cover the same material as LPN or RN programs, but reviewing electronic charts is just as important for CNAs as Nurses.
We're getting ready for the Pennsylvania HOSA conference tomorrow from 9am-4pm. If you're in the area be sure to catch one of our talks at the Lancaster Host Resort and Conference Center:
Vaccine Injection Teaching Idea: Did you read the chart?

We were recently talking to one of our schools with a Medical Assisting class and got a great idea for how to use an Academic EHR in a Nursing or Medical Assisting classroom when it comes to injections and vaccines.
Choose a patient to display during class and add a severe egg allergy to that patient's allergy list. Then, add an order for either a Flu or Yellow Fever vaccine.
Let's all take a break from being serious for a just a few minutes and have a laugh. Here are some funny sites and jokes you might all appreciate as a break from the regular education and EHR-related posts we typically have on this blog.
Introducing kids to Allied Health and Nursing professions while they're still young

At the IACTE Conference a few weeks ago, I met one of the creators of the Paige and Paxton series. For those of you who aren't familiar with the books, they're a way to introduce young minds to STEM fields using fun books, activities and puzzles.
