Are the Health Unit Coordinators Trained Properly? (Video)

This is the story of how I became a Health Unit Coordinator.

I applied for the job online and was called in for an interview. Before the interview, I had to take a typing test. I took the test and passed, then interviewed and got the job. 

For the first two weeks of the job, the rest of the new HUCs and I were in a room for eight hours, learning medical terminology. Once we passed the medical terminology course, we moved on to the unit we would be working on and were put into a room to complete the required Computer-Based Learning (CBLs). Then, we were allowed on the floor to start our orientation.



If you want to be a Unit Clerk, you must pass a background and drug test. And then, you are sent to the floor for a rushed-through orientation with multiple people. 

How can a new HUC process all of this information, some of which is right and some of which is wrong, depending on who trained them?

How is that being trained properly?
