I suppose you have a German keyboard?
If you want to type an Umlaut on an English keyboard you type oe.
Or tell me your secret!

it may also be your word expander not being compatible with your platform, if you work on one. sometimes my expander acts screwy when changing between two different platforms. I have to turn it off and then reopen the expander program and then all is fine. good luck.

Wondering if anyone is still up. Need an answer before I go to bed. Please??? Where does it state in BOS, or anywhere, that the expanded form of DNR is DO NOT RESUSCITATE, versus Do Not Resuscitate, unless stated in the client profile? QA took points from me on this one, and I want to complain to my PS (If I'm not wrong of course).
Thanks for your help!

Hi, Newbie!
Guess they haven't taught you about homonyms yet. Sight, site, and cite are a good example of them. The correct one is site (location).
Also try ophthalmology specialty book, Surgical Word Book, and whatever hospital you're working for does have a list of the instruments used. I used to call Sterile Supply directly (in a former lifetime when we worked in hospitals) and then check their spelling.
Good luck.

telling us that the apostrophe is the same as saying "of," as in 17 weeks of gestation, which would be okay. Or you can say a 17-week gestation. Either way would be okay I would think. Not 17-weeks gestation though.
