When I worked in the Ambulatory Facility, I was the happiest person ever. Walking in every morning through those metal doors, smelling the freshly made coffee and those warm bagels already delivered, ready to start our day at the surgical center. Patients walking in, signing in and waiting to be called in next. One by one going in and making sure that they’re names were spelled correctly and screening them one last time before going in. That was my job. Speaking to patients was something that I loved. Especially Spanish speaking patients. Once they were done, I would be called into PACU to check on patients and to see if they needed anything. This is what I loved. It felt like I was one step closer to my dreams in becoming a nurse. It was amazing.
My mom has worked in hospitals since before I was born. From being a nurse to becoming a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist, she spent a lot of time in hospitals, which meant her family did too. After spending many nights and even holidays at them, hospitals became like a second home to me; and the staff, a family. I learned to love everything about hospitals: the smell, cleanliness, layout, and even the chaos. I saw how controlled yet sincere everything was. I saw and learned things wandering around hospitals that many others will never understand.
Being a CNA is hard and taxing on people mentally and physically. It a tiresome job that turns most people off from the start. But, I do think joy can be found in this job. Most will say that being a CNA is like being a glorified butt wiper which I mean yes we do wipe butts but there is a lot more to the job then that. There is relationships that are built with the residents and patients that is unique to a CNA. My job is hard and sometimes I just want to throw in the towel. But then there's that moment that changes it all and makes you love the job even though it very hard. Being a CNA is all about the passion, relationships with people and hard work.
As a nurse working in the home healthcare field for many years, I have enjoyed being an
The hands on experience I get in the classrooms is incredibly fun. I am enjoying learning skills that will be of value to me for the rest of my career. Whats’s more exciting is having the opportunity to put those skill to practice in the hospital with patients. So much knowledge is gained from interacting with the nurses and pateitns, something that can’t be learned in a classroom. Another aspect of the nursing program I enjoy is working with my fellow peers. The nursing program has a small group of people which allows us to become close. We struggle, cry and succeed together. It feels like I am part of a family we area learning together and learning from each other as
My passion for medicine continues to grow with each patient that I’ve had the privilege of caring for through shadowing, volunteering and my job as a CNA. Being my grandma’s translator has inspired me to pursue a career as a physician assistant, and beyond becoming a physician assistant, I aspire to practice in underserved populations so that everyone has an equal opportunity to access the health care they need.
Learning to becoming a CNA was the greatest opportunity and experience I could have done for myself. It has changed me as a person and as a caregiver. I have built amazing relationships with my residents non like any other. They have become my family. Because of my residents, I have learned a great lesson. The best way to give the best quality care is to treat people as if they were family; and that is what has brought me to become a great certified nursing assistant. I have such great relationships with my residents and because of that I am able to see the impacts I have on people. I am able to see their faces light up when I walk into their rooms. Everyday has brought great joy to my life and to be a part of a person’s life, like I have been,
I am also a cheer coach for children, ages eight to ten, which has taught me how to treat little ones. I want to be able to make children feel comfortable and safe when they're at the doctors. I want them to feel as if there is always someone there that can help them no matter the severity of the problem. I have always taken a pleasure in meeting new people and I know being a nurse will guarantee that. Being in healthcare, I will be able to interact with all different types of people everyday. Working at Rita's during the summer has given the chance to engage with people that I have never met. I was relate to adapt so quickly with customers and coworkers and I feel like I have become a more open person. Having the opportunity to work with more people on a daily basis would teach me countless valuable life
I feel like this experience helped make me the nurse that I am today- one who is adaptable to less than ideal circumstances, able to deal with challenging family dynamics, and capable of working with a team to achieve great patient outcomes.
I went to the hospital several times to attend the orientation as well as to fulfill the requirements to volunteer and I was glad when I was finally deemed ready to volunteer at this hospital. I had two jobs consisting of helping out in the ICU and sending flowers to the patients throughout the hospital. I learned many things in the hospital that I had not known before through the friendliness and the supportive nature of all the staff. I learned how to basics of reading the heartbeat on the EKG, that leeches are still currently used to help circulate the blood in a certain portion of a patient’s body, and many other things. It was a very interesting experience and I enjoyed the opportunity
I loved the idea of working with others, interacting with patients, and creating treatment plans. The patients I encountered had the largest effect on my experience as a Hospice Volunteer. Their liveliness and pleasant disposition despite their prognosis truly inspired me.
I worked as a CNA (certified nurse’s assistant) for Creekside Village Nursing Home for what seemed like the longest two years of my life. When I got hired, I was eager at the chance to gain first-hand experience in patient care, seeing as I aspired to become a registered nurse someday. But the feelings of happiness I felt in the beginning, sad to say, didn’t last long. I was starting to hate it, more and more with every passing day. . . .
and problem-solve. I especially enjoyed my rotation in the mental health hospital and hope to one day specialize in this area. I work well as part of a team, communicate well, and have excellent attention to detail. I strive to offer the best customer service to patients and always ensure safe practice on the
Health care organizations are motivated by social transformations that occur in their environment that affect economic, demographic and technological aspect of care and services in a positive way. More so, health system innovation process is directly linked to the degree of consistency of professional, technological, organizational, personal and social skills. The combination of this process and management will help create a valid strategic plan that will be based on measure of performance, benchmarking, and continuous improvement. Every health care organization clinical support must be consistent with the organization mission and strategic plan; which can be determined by its annual goals that are approve by the governing board. This report covers the concept of Ambulatory care center that will be using a free market perspective as a pattern to design the new
A. Health is the component of the consumption that we spent a much greater percentage in 2011 in comparison to 1967. During the 21st century, health care systems throughout the world are concentrating strategy efforts on enhancing the aspect of healthcare provided to the society. The health care quality that have improved during the years accommodated with the adjustment of output variables such as morbidity rate, mortality rate (also during infancy), and life expectancy of a certain population. Inputs such as healthcare consumption and services, and the amount of healthcare professions and facilities also developed throughout those years. For example, ambulatory healthcare facilities are so prevalent today because it creates competition in the market with hospitals care facilities. It is more convenient, as it is likely easier to be found and make appointments rather than going into a large health care facility to get the care people need. It is also efficient with the cost of getting the treatments and care patients seek with an offer of a lower co-payment in comparison to hospitals. The development in these given inputs and outputs regulates the percentage of GDP.
Ambulatory care is a type of medical care that is provided to patients who do not need to be admitted to a hospital for treatment. It is often referred to as “outpatient care”. It includes diagnosis, observation, consultation, treatment, intervention, and rehabilitation services. Ambulatory care can be delivered in a variety of settings, including doctor’s offices, clinics, hospitals, emergency departments, eye doctors, etc. This type of care tends to be preferred because most people want to avoid staying in a hospital more than needed, and it is also less expensive. Most hospitals encourage patients to choose outpatient care if it is possible, that way the facilities will be free for more critical patients and to cut down on overall expenses.
