We did round after rounds of practice charting in a controlled environment to improve our skills and confidence. However, most people who were hired as a scribe had some sort of medical background. For example, I had been EMT-certified in addition to countless hours of previous medical shadowing in various departments. Others had various types of research, BLS training, hospital tech, and other such medically-related positions. Also, our trick was we always had a google tab open on our COWs (or rather, WOWs). And the longer we were scribes, the more we picked up and remembered. It was a good experience!Christina C.
