Scribes in the ED

Can you tell me how you become a scribe? My son will be attending the local community college next year and that would be a great job for him while he's in school. What kind of training do you need?

DEPENDS ON THE SCRIBE. SOME ARE GREAT. SOME, ON THE OTHER HAND, THINK THEY CAN GIVE ME VERBAL ORDERS AND DO NOT LIKE IT NONE TO WELL WHEN I TELL THEM I DO NOT TAKE ORDERS FROM ANY ONE BUT A DOCTOR. ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT I HAVE RUN INTO BUT MUCH LESS FREQUENTLY IS WHEN THEY WRITE AN ORDER WITH AN ERROR IN IT. SOME ARE OBVIOUS AND SOME NOT SO MUCH. I THEN HAVE TO TRACK DOWN THE DOC AND GET CLARIFICATION WHICH WASTES EVERYONE'S TIME.
