I'm planning an overnight trip to the Cleveland Zoo with my 6-year-old daughter. We'll go to the zoo on Tuesday because I'm told Monday is way too crowded, but what can we do Monday and where should we stay? Someone from the zoo suggested the Lake Erie Science Center, the Natural history museum, the Science Center (different from the Lake Erie Science Center???), or the Botanical Gardens. A fun hotel would be nice too. Thanks a bunch.

Cleveland is, for sure.
Not sure about any other cities in Ohio. Haven't heard.
Cleveland
was making $15.88/hour before MadQuist took over our hospital. excellent health benefits, 401K so-so.
The Cleveland Zoo is a great zoo...sm
We visit several times a year. I am sorry I cant help with hotels to stay at, as we live about 1 1/2 hours away so we just drive home! I definitely suggest Lake Erie Science Center too. Or you might want to look into one of the waterpark hotels in Cleveland. They are awsome too. It is an indoor waterpark with a hotel in it. And the drive to the zoo the next day wouldnt be all that far. I have 3 girls ages 4, 7 and 10 and they love the zoo and rainforest and the science center and indoor waterpark. Hope this was some help. Have fun and enjoy the day!
Cleveland evacuees
Just heard that has been put on hold for now, on the news. The people do not want to leave to go so far away from their homes (or what was their home).
Cleveland Clinic was advertising for MTs for their Fla
the Ohio (main) clinic was at one time being transcribed by "that" other company but don't know if they do it any more.
I'm with you - a face transplant is very interesting!
Look up their clinic in Florida (extension) and see if they are still hiring. Let us know. :))
Does any one know who has the Cleveland Clinic Transcription Contract? sm
I saw where they did a face transplant today. I would love to transcribe that operative report! Anyone know who has their transcription contract? I want to work for them - I think, depending on who it is.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!
Hi - my DD goes to college in Cleveland, SIL/family are in Gainesvile :)

and so it appears( x 3) the prestigious Cleveland Clinic does too.

Regarding new residents...sm
This post peaked my interested, how would you obtain a new residents list? I am a five year MT working at home. Thank you for any information. Dobin
Residents
Just have to scream for a minute...Arrrrrrrrrrg...Ok a little better. Have been working on a simple H&H being dictated by an American resident, 2 year, that is almost at 800+ simply because she cannot dictate, does not know how to pronounce meds, has trouble with medical terms, ad nauseum......I've worked in med schools and around residents nearly all my working life, but this crop we have now are at least to me the dumbest I've ever run across. We have a good split of ELS and Americans. Don't know which is worse. Oh well, more fun to come when a new group comes in around the first of July. Can't wait. Just had to get that off my chest. Would love to hear others comments.
Change of residents
They always change in July, so you get a "new batch". They start off being long-winded because they want to look like they are doing a good job and covering everything. However, as the year progresses, they get tired of doing it, so their reports get shorter and shorter. I just wish they were English-speaking but unfortunately the majority of them are Indians, Arabs, etc., who "no habla Ingles". I think our job title needs to be changed to "medical translator". 
Same thing goes for residents of
Florida, Mississippi, Alabama, Carolinas, etc., who get hurricanes. They should get nothing because they chose to live where they are.
Everyone enjoying their new residents?
I LOVE mine - they are sooo polite and articulate. One even said "Transcriptionist I am so sorry to impose on you but I need to make a correction." Boy will that change once they get over being "new" and then they will join the rest of the foul mumblers and slurrers, but at the moment I'm LOVIN' it!   
Have you ever noticed that residents/NP etc.
do not know the definition of the word "briefly." Some of the longest reports I do start the first paragraph with "Briefly, the patient is ..........." and then they ramble on for 10 or so minutes.
I do a lot of psych and I have residents that
go on and on. Many different headings, nonrepetitive, very hard to make lines. I have one ESL doc who does long dictations, but 90% of it is spent flipping pages, so very few lines for the dictation. I use an Expander and based on 65 characters and I'd be hard pressed to do 1500 lines a day.
Teaching hospitals & residents...
I work for a very large university hospital account and hate how long-winded some of these residents can be! Argh! Especially 1st year - just a plain chest xray turns into a thesis! And the attendings aren't much better - they love to "teach" on my time! What is your preference - teaching hospitals (which admittedly are great teaching grounds for MT's) or regular, plain old boring regular hospitals? These residents make me want to........
RE: Teaching hospitals & residents...
Teaching hospitals.
MA passed law stating all residents MUST
or they will be fined $1,000 per year. Poverty level up to 4 times poverty level (for family of four) you will receive free or subsidized care. All other residents must either have health insurance through their employer or individual policy. My question is, what if you just cannot afford it???? There are many reasons some above poverty level cannot afford coverage, such as family history. This law stinks. I'm sure there was heavy insurance company lobbying on this one. Once again the little guy gets  .
On my account the residents and students are better than
Line Rates for Michigan residents
For all of you who live in Michigan what is the line rate you are paid? I want to get an average of the industry here is Michigan.
TransTech does this group, too. Awful foreign residents! nm

Unproductive work types continually, for me, DS with ESLs and residents. nm
