How can a user manage their Personal Dictionary in EMIS Web?

Care record
Intermediate

Managing your Personal Dictionary in EMIS Web is a straightforward process that can streamline your consultation workflow by ensuring that specific terms, especially those frequently used but not typically recognised in standard dictionaries, are correctly processed by the system's spellcheck.

Adding Words to Your Personal Dictionary

To add words to your Personal Dictionary:

  • Navigate to the Care Record section.
  • Select Consultations from the drop-down options.
  • Open the CR Config from the ribbon.
  • Within the configuration screen, select Personal Dictionary from the User Options on the left-hand pane.
  • Add any word you frequently use that is not recognised by the standard spellchecker to prevent it from being flagged.

Benefits of a Personal Dictionary

By customising your Personal Dictionary, you save time during consultations by reducing interruptions from unnecessary spellcheck alerts. This can improve both efficiency and focus when handling patient records.

Editing and Deleting Words

If you need to remove or edit words in your Personal Dictionary, return to the same Personal Dictionary settings within the CR Config and make the necessary changes.
