a period after "dysfunction" and no comma after "although" unless that phrase introduces the next sentence. It cannot stand alone as you have it. Can't tell from here. Check medication list to see if you can find something that could hint at your s/l. As a very wild guess, can you hear "acetaminophen intake?"

This MT shows promise, and a little mentoring won't hurt any of you, so relax. She's doing a great job on her own, and working hard, too.

If you all worked in a hospital setting, you would get this kind of help, too. I did, and I won't ever forget the help I received and how much I learned.

On the psych evaluations I get, and this is probably account specific, but we show these as headings. Not that it is required, but the dictators really seem to prefer that type of formatting. There is even one who asks for many of these same terms (including things like "he had an Full Scaled Score of..." within the body of her text. So, I always just capitalize or put things in ALL caps when she says to.

Big ditto on siren's post. Even if you could please EMAIL me, would really like to know where you work and for what facility. I LOVE psych work and both my major primaries which were ALL psych work were lost to other companies (left the one I am at) and I miss it. Glad to help though and see above post on your blank before status! Bye!

by the administrator??? I am giving my point of view and no I am not repeating anything. I am saying it differently and it cannot hurt. Is it okay for posters to give WRONG ANSWERS? why are you not telling them enough already and give it a rest???

How come when you see the same answer on the help board over and over again, why are you not piping in telling them they are giving redundant anwers?

This subject must have hit a nerve with you.

I will not give anything a rest. Thank you. Have a nice day.
