Emergency Department Scribes

Move Faster With Better Documentation.

In fast-paced, intense emergency medicine, documentation is critical. But taking care of a patient requiring immediate, concentrated care always takes first priority.

This means that the Emergency physician/provider must spend extra time after a shift or between patients to catch up on documentation, which can lead to frustration, fatigue, and errors.

That’s why many physicians and other medical staff turn to Mountain View Scribe Services for support. Our Scribes remove a burden by documenting information in real time, using the hospital’s EMR system. This improves quality of patient care and reduces medical professional burnout*. It also allows physicians and providers to move faster from patient to patient—often critical in an emergency medicine situation.

There is strong incentive to provide exceptional service to the physicians and other professionals in the ED.

Research from the ED’s we serve and from industry sources indicate that Scribe services are cost effective and contribute to institution efficiency in multiple ways: by freeing up physician/provider time, by reducing recording mistakes, by improving data entry, and by improving staff satisfaction.
