Career As A Physician In The Emergency Room

S (situation): Hi, my name Kelsey and I am a nurse in the emergency department. I am calling about Shannon O’Reilly’s most recent laboratory results.

Throughout the majority of my life, I had dreams of becoming an attorney and did not consider medicine as a profession until much later in my academic career. I had previously pictured myself pursuing a career in intellectual property rights and hoped to become a patent attorney, given my interest in the scientific field. My interest in patent law led me to take science courses that piqued my curiosity. I soon found myself involved in undergraduate laboratory research, focused on discovering new drugs to treat chronic pain syndromes while preventing drug tolerance and limiting the side effects of conventionally used narcotic pain medications. During my last year of college, I was accepted into law school, however I ultimately did not feel that I was truly pursuing my passion and decided to withdraw my acceptance. I then found myself with a college degree and an unclear direction in life, unsure of what new career I wanted to pursue. Shortly after graduating, I discovered a medical scribe vacancy in my hometown's Emergency Department (ED). Working as a scribe in the ED was a profound experience that undoubtedly shaped my career path and inspired me to become a physician and apply to medical school.

Historical data and participant observation were the two primary methods of research. It is observed that in addition to the patient acuity levels nurses perceive insufficient staffing related to the non-nursing work they are expected to perform such as delivering food trays, housekeeping responsibilities, and performing ancillary services. Many different views of the nurse to patient ratio are explored, and it was sufficiently established that the redundancy of the data was reached. It was not established whether or not informed consent was obtained.

"You are truly benefit from the content you are studying, you may have to learn at a higher level than the mode of teaching in a class requires of you" ( Paul & Elder 2012,p.144). The purpose of my education is simple to prepare me for dealing with better educated individuals whether in an office or out in the field and compliment my twenty-five years of field experience. The quote I began my with is truly fitting for the degree which I am working towards in Emergency Services Medical Administration. This information that I learn from this class specifically will help me think before I speak and allow me to better focused not only on the situation but also the questions and answers that are constantly being asked. There are many questions

Emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and paramedics are the most at risk to sustain injury and the most critical short term health care provider because of the nature of their job, because of the scope of their skills, and because of the skills they have and procedures they are authorized to perform.

According to the Urgent Care Association of America (UCAOA), it was found that approximately 71% of ER visits are non-life-or-limb threatening, and could be handled appropriately in an urgent care facility. Nine of the most common conditions that prompt ER visits nationally -- allergies, acute bronchitis, earache, sore throat, pink eye, sinusitis, strep throat, upper respiratory infection, and urinary tract infection -- are urgent, but non-emergency situations.

Now days I believe it is essential for people to have good computer skills and knowledge. Including all computer software’s like Word, Excel and Power Point. I am mainly interested in working as a medical office administrator. Office administrators are responsible for all information management and organizing medical records. Excel can be used to keep track of medications, prescriptions, payments and many other health information. Because of this I believe anyone seeking a career in medical office administration should really take excel as part of their curriculum.

I worked in the emergency department for eight months before I first saw someone die. I watched how his eyes rolled back on the stretcher and within moments, I was staring at how the man’s chest would still forcefully rebound with each compression of his limp, naked body. I had not even realized forty minutes had passed. Looking down at my clipboard, I had still managed to get down the time points for each epinephrine that was fruitlessly pushed. Why was I nauseous?

In ten years I hope to be an accomplished nurse working in a hospital in either pediatrics or in the emergency room. My goal is by the time I am twenty six I will have a masters degree in nursing as a physician's assistant and a nurse practitioner. I hope that I will be good at my job and I am very passionate about my career choice. The reason I want to become a nurse is so I can be the one to help my pack ants not only medically but with there spirits too. Having a good nurse and medical team can make your worst day not as bad as it could be and can help the passant become a healthy person faster. I hope that in ten years I will be make a difference in people's lives. Whether it be in my patients or my coworkers lives, either way I want to

This exercise would prove to be very helpful in my job now as well as my future career. I deal with patients every day as the arrive and leave the family practice I work in. I could not even give you a number as to how many faces I see in one day. I am currently in school to become a radiographer. In this line of work, which is in healthcare as well, I will be dealing with many patients on a day to day basis. Even though I am not aware of it non-verbal channels, the various behavioral forms that nonverbal communication takes (Floyd 180), assist me in effectively doing my job.

They also answer phones and emails and maintain medical files in the office. Medical office specialist can work anywhere from physician's office, hospitals and nursing homes. Medical office specialist is like a receptionist and need certifications. Some job titles that maybe apply are: medical coder, medical billing/claims, and medical transcriptionists.

The documentary of 24/7/365-The evolution of Emergency Medicine is about the chronological story of the creation of the residency in emergency medicine, the struggles the early emergency doctors had to overcome and their achievement in patient care. The documentary presented a strong statement in defense of the importance of an emergency department and doctors trained in this field, for the benefit of the patient. What bothers me the most of the documentary was the fight between doctors for the defense of their field they practice and for money, and the dumping of patient because they had not payed his last visit. The view of medicine has to change, we need to avoid

As part of this Externship at Urgent care clinic, Plano, I was involved in taking a detailed patient history, formulate a plan of management and present the same to the attending physician; participate in elaborate case discussions with the attending doctor. I learnt the concepts of treatment and management of breathing difficulties and bleeding

As a prerequisite to composing my phase one-semester paper, I interviewed two colleagues of mine. Beginning with the interviewee who is female and sixty-three years old, and has recently had two memorable health experiences. Which were with her primary care physician and an emergency room physician. The primary care physician was the most pleasant memorable experience. Moving from Texas to Massachusetts was difficult in itself, however now she needed to locate a new primary care physician. Not to mention it was challenging because she cherished her previous primary care physician. She had never been to the new health care professional office and this was her first time, which can create a range of emotions. She called the office beforehand to make an appointment and the receptionist was kind and personable through the telephone and provided her with the information she needed to come prepared with, for example, a form of identification, insurance card, and copay.

A senior high-ranking American military officer was caught communicating with a suspect terrorist organizations in an undisclosed country in the Middle East. Based on the limited information provided during the intercept this does not meet the threshold of an “impending incident and does not justify burning the field operatives and the safe house. The intercept will be exfiltrated through normal dead drop procedures to the U.S. Embassy’s station chief with a special notice written “time-sensitive”. The risk associated with communicating through open channels is too great. The involvement of the U.S Central Command could jeopardize a proper investigation on possible treason charges involving a high ranking military official.
