Getting behind on charting after a long and busy day can happen in any practice, and this is especially true for urology residents in training. Your interviewers ask a question regarding your experience and exposure to patient charting and dictation to hear how you will prioritize these tasks during a busy day and that you can do what is necessary for a patient's record, even on the busiest days of residency training.

"I feel fortunate that I was able to get hands-on experience in a few EMRs during my medical school rotations and learn the ins and outs of each system. Being computer savvy, I was able to pick up any program quickly. I was allowed to chart patient notes, send prescriptions, and even submit for inpatient admissions on a few patients. As a resident of your urology program, I know that timely charting is necessary because nursing staff and other providers need documentation quickly. If I was caught in a busy day in clinic or rounding, I would make sure that my notes are entered before the end of my shift."

Speak openly and honestly about your exposure to working in different EMRs and charting during your medical school rotations. While your interviewers know that the students they interview will have varying experience, it is important to stress that you would always be timely with your charting and that you understand why doing so is vital to their overall care.
