This book was ok, if you know nothing about charting in the first place. I was hoping it could give me some pointers on better charting, which it did not.
By Vivian K. Cherry
I used this book as a reference for a talk on medical charting. I was disappointed in it, and did not end up using any of the information. Perhaps someone who needs to use electronic medical records would be happier with this book than I was.
