It makes it easier for the charts to pile up:
When we had paper charts, I’d get freaked out if there were 10 on my desk. I’d quickly scribble out bare-bones histories, ROS, PE findings and plans. Now, it’s really easy to get behind very quickly. Part of the problem is the ability to be so darned thorough. I never felt that pressure with paper charts.
Templates are key. The thoroughness of an EMR note can make manual entry very tedious.
