The ability to deliver an informative and easy-to-follow medical chronology can boost your LNC business. Emily Flynn, an experienced emergency department nurse, has been a legal nurse consultant since 2006. She brings her expertise to the complex subject of preparing a chronology that meets her clients’ needs.
Emily describes how she uses basic software such as Word to build her chronologies, including specific color accents to highlight major points. She also keeps a file of medical and pharmaceutical definitions that she can cut and paste into chronologies.
Though this is her basic approach, she always determines the attorney’s preferred format for a chronology and also how much content the client wants. Emily finds it crucial to have a system for organizing the files and discovering when critical files are missing from the records.
Handling discrepancies is a vital part of writing a chronology. It may be necessary to delineate the variance of opinions among eyewitnesses, for example. Sometimes different doctors have varying opinions of a patient’s condition. Emily emphasizes that pointing out discrepancies is not expressing an opinion. Opinions aren’t part of an LNC’s work.
You’re sure to find valuable recommendations to use in your chronology work. Learn from Emily now.
