I’m sooo nervous and intimidated 😢 I got hired with a virtual scribe company with zero medica experience except for medical classes at school for the past year . I actually surprisingly passed the training final and they sent my equipment. I’m now doing the epic emr training and it’s sooo intimidating knowing that most of my coworkers have experience in the nursing field 😢 I’m trying hard not to give up , I literally just started
I just got hired as a medical scribe! Im completely nervous but coming across your channel really helped calm down a little. Thank you so much for providing so much information!
I just applied for a medical scribe position! I have to admit that I was nervous, but I saw your video and it calmed me. I have faith that I will do my best to become better everyday. Thank you for your video!!!
Thats great! CNA is an awesome patient care experience as well! I'm not sure when you plan on applying, but I definitely recommend keeping your options open for scribing if the opportunity presents itself. I have a feeling you'd love it. In the meantime, keep working hard girly! :)
This was very insightful and informative. The description of being a scribe was by far the most useful one I have listened to. Thank you hope everything is going well for you.
This was SO helpful!! Thank you so much. I'm working on getting a job as a scribe as it will give me experience for the field I'm going to school for. I had no idea what to expect, but now I do. Thank you so much for making this video!!
Hi Sarah! Thanks for taking the time to reach out and for watching my video! I’m so glad you found it helpful. I miss scribing even today, you will absolutely love it. Best of luck! Keep working hard 🤗
Just submitted my PA application, currently working as a float scribe (ophthalmology and pain management) with background in orthopaedics and general surgery. Your content has helped me so much through the application process! Please continue posting!
Hi Leah, thank you so much for your support and for watching my videos. I'm so glad you've found them helpful. Congrats on applying for PA school! That's incredibly exciting. I'll continue posting and hopefully will help shed light on how to navigate PA school. Wishing you the best of luck! :)
Unfortunately, the Scribe America training isn't live anymore as far as I know, I'm almost done with the Scribe America online course at the moment. and it's all pre-recorded videos. Yes, it is SO rigorous. Currently trying to cram my brain with information! Thanks for the video
Izze Drot Oh man, I remember that time clearly. It’s SO worth it though. It’s already helped immensely with didactic year of PA school.. and I’m sure it will pay of clinical year as well. Keep pushing through 🤗♥️
Thank you, great information. I'm actually a certified medical coder with little on the job experience. I got offered a position as a medical scribe and I am thinking maybe I should accept the position. It can't hurt!!! Thank you again!!
I’ve been an MA, CNA, PCT and recently got EKG certified but I’m so nervous lol. Been in this field since 2006. I’m scared, I’m a bad tester to become a newbie scribe
Please make a video on your experience volunteering in Mexico as a MA! I am a Mexican-American pre pa student and I would love to hear more about this experience!
That is a great question. Because of HIPAA, we weren’t allowed to use any of the aforementioned software. The note taking process varies from hospital to hospital, but where I worked we had a clipboard and manually took note of the patient-provider interview real time (we used a lot of short hand, and medical abbreviations). Then we went into the EMR system and added to the patient’s medical record from there. Oftentimes the physician would come by to tell us more information that they wanted to add to the note, and we would type it out abbreviated directly into the online medical note, then clean up the medical note from there (take out typos, change abbreviations to full words, etc). I hope that helps clarify! ☺️
New Subscribers! Thank you for this video. I have a virtual interview for an on-site scribe position. Would you know if this position will be helpful for those who are in a healthcare IT MBA program?
That is a really great question. I would say that while scribing provides great exposure for anyone interesting in a career in medicine, I would say certified nursing assistant may be the best first step on the path to being a registered nurse. I got certified as a CNA through the American Red Cross, although I don't believe a certification is necessary to start a job as a CNA for certain places. I hope that helps. Best of luck!
Many people hold that opinion, and that is fair... but as far as what I wanted from my time as a scribe and the knowledge I acquired on the job, as well as the opportunities that were presented to me through my scribe position, I would say Scribe America served me (personally) well. I have no qualms with the company, but I do know of many that hold your opinion and I think it’s entirely valid to feel that way. Hopefully you found a position that works better for you 👍🏼

Excellent information! Thank you very much 🙏🏼
Yess!! I was waiting for this video 😭💗 if I wasn’t currently a CNA, I’d definitely go for a scribing position. They’re so knowledgeable!!

Nervous to start in America scribe because i don’t have medical experience
Very helpful and informative
What do they ask you in the interview quiz? Thanks for the video. Very helpful!!
Hey Samantha, great video! As a scribe, are you allowed to use general software like MsWord, one Note, Excel etc? Thanks
That is a great question.

Do you think it’s possible to continue scribing after getting into PA school if you stay nearby your job for school?
Does medical scribe jobs exists in the USA for an experience indian scribes
Is this good even going to nursing school as well
That is a really great question.

Love your hair :) haha
Awe, thanks! hahaha.
scribe america is one of the worst scribing service out there

which one would you suggest?
Are there better companies youd reccomend? Or why is scribe america a bad company??
Are you married?
