We've been doing computer charting for a few months, w/ the computerized MAR for the last few weeks. We have the COWs (didn't realize the name might be a problem), but they are really slow. We have a laptop in the med room, but it's slower still. So far, I've been doing most of my charting on the same computer I've always used. Granted, we don't have bar-coded meds. We're a tiny hospital- we dont' even have a pharmacist. They say eventually we'll have all those things. We'll see.
