I work full time at a hospital and our work has also slowed down a bit - but when the winter comes we will pick up again. Its a seasonal thing, happens every year. I've done this for 15 years so I am speaking from experience. The break is a nice relief actually. Perhaps you can ask to be added to another acct as a backup.

This is FLU season.
Hospitals are packed. I don't see how it could be the slow time of year. March has always been one of the busiest seasons and I have been transcribing 15 years.

For all the 4 Season bashing, just want to say ower
x

This is normally a slow time of season
in this field. No one wants to be in the hospital during the holidays, a lot of doctors are out, etc. Also, I think many companies are just overwhelmed with the responses they get to an ad.

Not at all. It tends to be a slow season but I have plenty of work.
..

I also do that. I nearly always get a response if I send it "off season."
Good luck!

What season is THAT? Late spring/early summer? .. sm
or the figment of some MTSO's imagination or latest line of BS??

Why is work load at Webmedx suddenly low during peak flu/RSV season? sm
Accounts that were on OT for a couple of weeks now have single-digit jobs pending, not all, obviously, but most.

I've been totally swamped throughout the season, worked yesterday, doing double shift,,,,sm
tomorrow, working weekend, no slowdown here, I actually wish there was, I worked lots over OT to make $$ for the holidays and now can hardly find the time to enjoy with my family....oh well, THANKFUL FOR A GOOD STEADY JOB!
