I started this new job about 3 to 4 weeks back. Wonderful job. However, they use acronyms that I am not acustomed to.

I have many books on documetation, medical terminology, and so forth. I have to ask "what is this?"
So, my question is, does anyone know of a web site that has a listing of common, basic acronyms used in a LTC?
Thanks

I found this site... http://www.medilexicon.com/
Hope it helps, I tried some of the acronyms that I didnt know when I first started in LTC and they were there...

THANK-YOU! I went there, and it helped a lot. You know you get tired of asking co-workers questions. This should do the trick.
