Starting out in CDI: Learn as much as you can

by Carolyn Riel
CDI professionals come to the field from a myriad of backgrounds. While ACDIS’ previous survey data shows that most of our members arrive at CDI from a clinical background beginning in bedside nursing, the ranks are filled out by those from coding/health information management (HIM) and other clinical fields. No two paths are the same, even if they end in the same location.
