Hello fellow case managers! Any of you using electronic signatures From Mds for documents? We are running around the hospital finding doctors to sign forms for oxygen, dme etc and wondering what others are using . I know there are programs such as docusign, can you tell me what you are using?

Not sure but my friends in home health make more money than I do. And we work for the same hospital! lol

O dear god no, I'm not starting an agency lol. I am transferring to the home health department for a large hospital. So it really takes that long to chart and see everyone, wow. My friends who work there say that they usually see 6-7 patients, get home by 4-5pm and spend a few hours charting. Average 40 hours per week and get paid a lot more than I do on the floor. Is this totally unrealistic?!

Hello! I will be starting home health nursing very soon and have heard from my manager that oasis charting was horrendous however she was using a paper charting system over 10 years ago. Now it's all electronic. I'm wondering if it is much easier? I would work 4 10 hr shifts, 7-8 hrs to see patients and then the rest of the time to chart.
