Medical Record Interpretation

Receiving hundreds of pages of medical records from a hospital stay or ER visit can be overwhelming to the untrained eye.  Putting together a time-line, understanding test results, medications and procedures can feel intimidating. Interpreting doctor and nurses notes can seem cryptic and overly complicated.  What if you could enlist a qualified Registered Nurse to sift through the these records and give you a concise interpretation of what happened, when and what may be written in between the lines?  

Don't waste your time and energy on this when you can get a qualified Board Certified Emergency Nurse to do this for you.  I offer quick, concise turn arounds.

Services I provide for a typical medical record review:

- Take your large stack of medical records and compress it down to only the useful pages (this is usually less than 5% of the original document)

- Return copies of all the important useful pages with hand written notes

- Create a time line of the records/hospital stay

- Write a narrative summary in common easy to understand terms with page references

- Explain complicated procedures, course of care, medications, etc.

- Interpret what is written "between the lines" in the doctors or nurses notes

- Find missing or incomplete information that may still need to be addressed.

- Suggest recommendations based on clients needs (for instance in child welfare cases, come up with suggestions that should be met to support reunification)

- Suggest long-term issue/needs that could arise

- Offer a verbal interpretation and answer questions if desired
