Sorry about the non starters, I had not signed in. I was thinking about that thread on medical records last night and lost notes would infuriate me and I would refused to see patients without their notes, but now, I presume. the notes are typed into the PC by the doctor after each visit. I DEMANDED the notes be brought into me before seeing the patient as then I could read what I said last time. Also I would put in "tit bits" like "going on a cruise" or Auntie moving house", so that when they cam in I would say "How did the cruise go?" or "has Auntie settled into her new home" and they would say "Fancy Mr. sqad remembering that.
Of course I on;y did that for private patients and NHS patients that might come private...LOL

Indeed....! Preferential treatment for your privates eh? Nothing's changed... :-)
Despite this impractical idea of a 'paperless Practice' - some GPs, mostly old school, still like to have the Lloyd George notes in front of them. We still have them of course, but are encouraged to encourage computer records. I used to like the personal comments & abbreviations that were used - when summarising notes it's hilarious sometimes to read the comments, which of course no doctor dare put these days. Along the lines of "this strange-looking rather dense man..." "Mrs Heartsink."

Do they still have "three Wise Men " in hospitals to settle disputes among the medical staff?
One Consultant always took the notes home and left them in his car, so any other dept was bu99ered if they wanted the notes. I asked one of my colleagues who were the three Wise Men so that I could make a complaint and was told that I was one of them........I didn't even know....NHS?

Three Wise Men? I don't think these days in a NHS Hospital they're allowed to have more than One. Cutbacks 'n all that...
We had a GP who, when he changed his car, brought in two cardboard boxes of notes he had in the boot of his old car. He had been denying for months any knowledge of their existence. Computer records are therefore good in that instance - at least the info is always readily available.
