Guest guest Posted February 14, 2002 Report Share Posted February 14, 2002 This morning, I made a discovery, which really threw me for a loop. I backspaced in my report into the previous report transcribed last night for class and found a whole line I didn't hear last night. I am in my last semester and just finally made this discovery. This ought to get my B's up into the A's a little more often. Was wondering if IC's are doing this usually or do you just do a " once through " on the report, because you just don't have the time to doddle? I have a part time job waiting for me and I would like to " play it again Sam " and get into that routine. Good thing to do or just get all I can the first time through and leave it at that -- go for the quanity 1st? This morning's discovery is like Col. discovering his chicken recipe at 65 or 69 years of age. Eeek! Thanks for the feedback. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 14, 2002 Report Share Posted February 14, 2002 When beginning a new job, I always try to listen to the dictation a 2nd time. Then as I get more accustomed to the dictator, I only go through once. By listening a 2nd time on a new dictator, I sometimes hear something that I didn't the 1st time or it helps clarify things that might not have been really clear the 1st time around. Furthermore, it makes me feel more confident that I am giving my best. Play It Again Sam :-) This morning, I made a discovery, which really threw me for a loop.

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 I doubt that you very often miss a whole line. But, I set my backspace so that I'm always rehearing what I've done. This alone helps a great deal and you may readjust that with each doc you do. Yes, when doing a new doc, always relisten a second time until you're used to them. It's time consuming but wonderful for quality! I proofread for my Ic's and listen to the whole tape while I read their work. I've only caught one where a whole line was missed and it was a short line. Oh, one Ic, not one report, she's famous for missing things. Be assured, by discovering this, you will be way more careful in the future - that's why they call it school. And we just keep learning! Sounds like you're doing great to me!

Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 I think when you are new, you should listen twice. After you have more experience, you should still proof, but shouldn't have to listen twice. Yes, always go for quality first!! My 2 cents...

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2012 Report Share Posted February 17, 2012 I am blessed. The doctor I transcribe for the most tells me if she is adding more. She is constantly reviewing, though, and this can be a nuisance as the machine is always clicking on and off. But she will say, end of dictation, or she will say, the rest of this tape is not valid as I forgot to erase. She is a gem. Aliceanne.
