Is there a way? No...and yes. I agree that "it sucks" and there should be a way to do it without what I describe below.
The way I do it on occasion takes a few clicks... The first is on Logmein Ignition, and the second is on the "back machine". That is the old machine that is on our network but is unassigned to any user, and has no monitor and no keyboard. I keep AC open on it, and in this circumstance, I open the patient's chart, see what I need, and come back to the sign-off.
Others may do it with a VM.
