Shadowing

I've really enjoyed being in clinic these past couple of weeks working on "real" patients, except for maybe one thing...Axium.  I feel like that is definitely my weakest area, and just as we are ending the semester, I feel like I am starting to get better at it.  So, yesterday I shadowed a senior in clinic and I was able to enter everything into the computer for her.  I feel so much more confident now, and she was great at helping me through the things I was fuzzy on.  The seniors still have another week in clinic.  I know we have finals to study for, but anyone wanting a little extra help with Axium should definitely think about shadowing next week.  It was so helpful to me!  Anyway, I just hope I don't forget too much about the computer over the break! LOL

  1. I am right there with you. Axium is a whole other process in itself! My mentor let me chart in Axium each time I shadowed and it helped prepare me for when I had a patient. The Axium documents in the clinic folder on blackboard are also helpful. For me, I had to learn by doing and the seniors were the best resource.
