Customization of the notes, orders, interface, saved favorites, shortcuts, etc.

Epic has a lot of features that make my job easier on a day-to-day basis. Coming from having to chart everything on paper to the ease of using Epic has made a world of difference. I did not have any influence on the setup of Epic for my particular company, but I like the options available to me when I chart. There are so many options for things I can chart on, broken down so that all I have to do a lot of the time is click a button to add an entry, but I can also type out my own words for more unique situations. The program also notes things that are frequently added to a patient's chart and then suggests them, so if nothing is changed I can just click a button instead of searching for the same entry over and over again.

Epic is easy to use. There are many shortcuts that are very useful while chart checking.
