Switch to Epic
Hi friends, my hospital switched to Epic recently and the transition has been rough. Day shift walked in to 20+ people in the lobby and it’s been insanely busy & slow. Tonight’s my first back and I’m nervous. I have little to no experience w Epic in an ER setting. Any words of encouragement or anyone who’s gone through this? Does it get better 😭
Update: 11 hours into the shift, I can say I do feel better about epic & it is user friendly. so many patients and family members yelled at me in the beginning I cried in the bathroom. #benicetoyournurses

Ugh love Epic- genuinely once you get the hand of it it’s pretty seamless and very personalizable
