Switching from EPIC to Meditech

Morning, I just wanted a few opinions on switching from using EPIC to Meditech. I have worked at a med-surg unit for 2 years using EPIC and loved using it. I got a new job at a different hospital (oncology) and they are using Meditech for charting. I was a brand new nurse at my old hospital and only know EPIC for charting. So far it's been almost 5 weeks at my new hospital and the system layout is so frustrating and it gives me a headache. It takes me forever to find simple things such as fingersticks, vital signs, and orders. This hospital also still does some paper orders too. I'm not sure how I can get accustomed to using Meditech. It feels as if I have gone back in time. Have any of you gone through this? Any tips? So far, I do enjoy this new job but feel as if I am not catching on. 

Thanks for reading!

    Yup. That's Meditech. You should get quicker at searching for basic information but it is a step back. And the system also doesn't share information well with other areas of the hospital. At least that has been my experience.
