What are the benchmarks for Day 2 of training?

The benchmark for Day 2 of training focuses on developing the scribe's independence in handling patient charts. Completing charts for 25% of patients independently demonstrates a significant step toward competency and confidence in a new scribe’s role. This level of independence indicates that the scribe is effectively applying the knowledge and skills learned in the initial stages of training, thus reinforcing their ability to navigate the electronic health record system and manage documentation autonomously.

Achieving this benchmark is crucial as it lays the foundation for further development in subsequent training days, allowing the scribe to gradually take on more complex tasks and increase their patient engagement. Setting an independence metric like this also ensures that trainees are not only learning through observation but are actively participating in the workflow, which is essential for retaining skills and knowledge.

Others may appear relevant, but they either do not directly measure the scribe's ability to handle charts or focus on collaborative learning rather than individual performance. This focus on independent completion is what makes it an appropriate benchmark for Day 2.
