Career Development Of The Healthcare Industry

After four years of learning to be a college student and meeting the requirements of each of my instructors, it is time for me to prepare for graduation and the move onto my career dreams. The creation of my career action plan is one of the many steps I will take to assess my goals, abilities, skills, weaknesses, and likelihood of landing gainful employment. My career action plan can be considered a roadmap of my change from college student to career professional. The action plan roadmap can help me see the trail that takes me to understanding my professional goals, and the health care position I should look for. This Roadmap can also help me

I began my career in the behavioral healthcare field when I was nineteen years old. Years later, when discussing my initial interview with my supervisor, she remarked the reason why she hired me was due to a statement I made “I’m not looking for a job, I’m seeking to begin a career”. Today, over a decade later that statement still rings true as I seek to further my skills and education with a Doctorate in Behavioral Healthcare focusing in management. Integrative Behavioral Healthcare is a burgeoning field within a changing marketplace. Possessing an increased knowledge of the primary care system, enhanced medical understanding and techniques to integrate behavioral healthcare services at a program level, will provide a great advantage in the

Sander does a great job of getting sources that are credible and informative. She has a variety of sources who, when put together, create a great picture of what is happening with these boomer students. She utilizes real people that are going back to school who give great personal experiences to give the reader a more in-depth look at the situation that these students are in. These personal experiences are accompanied by Jan Abushakrah, a sociology professor at Portland Community College; Susan Porter Robinson, vice president for lifelong learning at the American Council on Education; George Boggs, president of the American Association of Community Colleges; and Bernie Ronan, acting president of Mesa Community College. These perspectives give the reader a big picture look at the situation. For an even bigger picture of the situation, in numbers, Sander cites the Bureau of Labor Statistics to explain how many adults 55 and older will still be in the workplace. She also brings up a survey conducted by the MetLife Foundation and Civic Ventures who surveyed baby-boomers to determine how long they planned on continuing work. Sander gives the reader good information while assuring the reader that

As doctors are put into hospitals to keep patients alive and healthy, Hospital Administrators are put in hospitals to keep the facility alive and healthy. The day- to- day job of a Hospital Administrator is rigorous and detail oriented. He or she was chosen to keep the hospital operating efficiently, within budget while keeping many parties happy at the same time. Hospital Administrators work long and odd hours, possibly

After graduation, I committed myself to learning new things and more importantly to try things that intimidated and frightened me. While doing so, I searched for and found a way to make a change in the lives of those who needed help the most. I became a career advisor for one of Washington D.C’s largest workforce development projects. I was tasked with the responsibility of teaching DC’s welfare population the essential skills needed to progress in life, and succeed in the workforce. Having overcame being a learning disabled student, and traumatic brain injury I was

Using the SMART method, my long term goal is to continue my work as a CNA while applying for healthcare administrator positions. I would like to work as an administrator for at least 3 years for any medical setting. While working, I will be looking into ways on how I can own and operate a home healthcare agency. According to Marak, (2017), I really don’t need to have experience in the medical industry; I would just need to have the passion for providing care, the marketing savvy, an understanding of business knowledge, and integrity. With my CNA experience, along with my other work experiences, I am half way there.

Working within health and social care it might be different from another career path.

How is critical thinking used today? This is a typical question that a student in a non-nursing major may ask, but here at the Christ College, we would be happy to answer that for you. As a student nurse, I use and witness critical thinking and clinical reasoning in the clinical field every day. To better understand this topic, I found two articles to read and review. The first article I found is based on education and the second shows the view of a well-practiced nurse.

As people get older, life can get more complicated. When one ages, one is more prone to more negative experiences such as death of loved ones or an incident that is life changing. According to this article written by Jane E. Brody, such experiences can effect one’s ability to work the same job they have been working for 30 plus years (2016). However, many as a society hold the assumption that older adults lack the ability to recreate their vocational experience and instead should “settle down” and retire. Realistically, however, many older adults are not economically stable to retire. Jane E. Brody argues that changing your career to something that is fulfilling to an aging adult can not only be possible, but highly satisfying and beneficial.

It’s important that we should have this mentioned. I believe that there is a disconnect between educational standards and organizational demand for skills such as technical and engineering skills as well as soft skills that facilitate integration into the workforce. Therefore, if we look at the fact that the workforce currently has a lot of baby boomers in place. Baby boomers are ages 53-71. This group of people in most cases are equipped with soft skills. With that being said, the baby boomers have the ability to be a team player, the know how to communicate, in some instances able to show adaptability, problem-solving, and critical thinking capability. However, they may lack the educational, technical, and engineering skills need to maintain

As I join the many other adult students over forty going back to school and starting over with a certificate or degree for a new career all in the hopes of making more money for a better living. Pursuing a new career can be an easy call for people, whose old jobs have disappeared, forcing

The changing demographics in Canada are creating an older workforce. Policies and initiatives to engage older individuals are, therefore, in demand and need to be effectively integrated, targeted and adequately resourced. Flexibility in employment could help Canada address its changing social context as more “boomers” reach retirement. Furthermore, there are economic and social gains to be made by encouraging an extended work-life, many of which (including mentorship and knowledge-transfer) will also benefit younger cohorts. As a policy and practice instrument, PLAR also holds significant possibilities for encouraging experienced people to pursue encore careers and helping them assess a legacy of learning and experience. As a legacy planning tool, portfolio can be used creatively as a means to reflect on one’s purpose and accomplishments, and thus help illuminate a plan for the next stages of life as well as career direction.
