Internship Interflection

My internship experience proved to be valuable in terms of exposure and knowledge. Attending the M-1 Rail Community Advisory Council meetings were very rewarding. I was able to observe and interact with the public on their thoughts about M-1 Rail. The internship has taught me that it is important to learn how to demonstrate professionalism but courteous behavior at all times. My internship has definitely given me a better understanding of my skill, but most importantly, I’ve come to learn that I am not alone. This job has taught me that almost everybody is in my same position. Thanks to my I know that if I continue to work hard things will fall into place. Being my first position in an office atmosphere, I didn’t know exactly what to expect.

The situation that brought me from my first internship to the second one was frustrating and difficult. Nonetheless, it provided me with beneficial learning experiences for my career and life in general. One of the silver linings of interning at these two considerably different internship experiences was increasing my knowledge of two different types of business. The first of these areas was in the Non-Profit organization at PACS, where their mission is to empower individuals who are struggling. The nonprofit industry has always deeply interested me, and what I learned at PACS only fueled that interest. The time I spent at PACS was brief and ended abruptly. Nonetheless, I learned valuable and significant information and gained an understanding of the various business characteristics that are essential in nonprofit organizations.

Students receive on-the-job experience prior to graduation, and the internship assists them in obtaining permanent employment. Facilities benefit from the opportunity to participate in and improve the formal education process. Quite often, students who complete professional practice experiences are later employed by the facility at which they completed the internship.

I started my internship with the De Pere Area Chamber of Commerce in the first week of June. Beginning my internship I wasn’t sure what to expect. I had ideas about what I was going to be doing, but wasn’t sure. Whether the task was big or small I knew I wanted to contribute.

I used many of my previous skills, to complete my internship. My education knowledge was put to the test; which is what I expected. The power-point related to Healthcare Management within the following courses: Managed Care, Quality Healthcare, Org. & Del Healthcare, Principles of Management, Adv.

This summer has by far been the most meaningful due to my internship at the Lloyd Moss Free Clinic. I had a wonderful opportunity to use my summer before college to explore healthcare professions and learn how a free clinic functions. Throughout my experience, I was exposed to many different professions within a clinic. My daily task consists of a wide variety of activities. I would begin by sorting and filing patient document, gathering charts for upcoming appointments, and helping the clinical operations director with projects regarding referrals. Then, I would continue my day at the call center. While assisting at the call center, I was able to learn what exactly each department handles at the clinic and I was exposed to a variety of terms

This internship experience at Superdome Sports has allowed me to build on many skills needed to develop my professional career. For starters, it has given me the opportunity to effectively communicate with peers and professionals, both orally and in writing. My responsibilities included a lot of communication with the customers at the front desk, where I helped them with any questions or issues they may have had. I was able to build my customer service skills by helping them in the best possible way with the most clear and correct answers. I also worked with many employees. It was my responsibility to clearly communicate the schedule for the week as well as the staff schedule for the counselors. Not only that, but whenever there was a

I feel that this really opened the door for my yearning to do something within the medical field. During this internship I watched Dr. Morin perform total knee replacements, total hips, and other minor orthopedic surgeries. While the surgery was going on, I would stand next to the Nurse Anesthetist. I had told Dr. Morin that I had an interest in Anesthesia, so he had the Nurse Anesthetist

Through internships I have had the opportunity work with largest medical group in western Montana, Providence Medical Group, and with The University of Montana health care center, which serves 15,000 students. I completed market research that aided wide rebranding efforts. My ability to collect and analyze market data to develop strategies and make informed decisions will be useful as I establish and maintain and update a filing system for the accounting department and assist in maintain a contact database.

It was an amazing feeling being a part of the community of small non-profits agencies helping low income communities. At these health fairs, I would hand out flyers and talked to people interested in VCC: The Gary Center. At a small agency like the VCC: The Gary Center it was important to receive donations from local businesses. I had to contact many restaurants and grocery stores to donate food and gift card donations. This process was nerve wracking, because I never did outreach to businesses. However, I was quickly able to learn about the process of getting items donated. Many stores have a lengthy process that requires a statement about the agency and the event where the items will be donated too. Going through this process for multiple donation applications made me proficient in my writing skills and communication skills. Despite not working in the counseling program for VCC: The Gary Center, I was able to gain extensive experience in issues that low-income families need help with and important office skills that are necessary for agencies. An internship that goes in line with my future career is being a co-leader for a Human Services class named Character and Conflict.

Different aspects of this internship were interesting. For instance, I enjoyed learning how to work with different management styles that I did not work with before. I learned how to ask my supervisor specific questions in order to meet important deadlines. I also learned about my strengths and weaknesses.

First and foremost, the most important skill I have learned so far is knowledge of the hospital environment.

Throughout my internship, I learned skills to work in any field of study. I learned many redirecting strategies, and expanded my communication skills both with professional staffing and students. My time at Carbondale Elementary School taught me many values, how to respect and accommodate to the students’ unique needs and disabilities, and how to teach in a way that is a appropriate for many different grade levels in order to get the most successful results. I also learned the importance of teamwork not only have open communication with professional staffing, but having open communication with the population being taught in the classroom. Its important to engage in questions and make sure not only the students are getting the best learning experience possible but also myself in order to successfully reach their needs and expectations. Also establishing a relationship with other people in your department and school is key. In order for a

While in this internship I experienced an issue that I have never experienced before. The issue that was experienced was the students being switched during the middle of the year and thus the classroom becoming all spanish instead of 80% Spanish and 20% English. Another issue that I struggled with during the internship was that the cooperating teacher truly only wanted myself there to help with the cleaning and with little situations when needed. Although I tired to be hands on It felt as though I was limited to what I could do in the classroom without the teacher telling me to do something that had nothing to do with helping the students. One of the main issue that I struggled with this internship in how to deal and help the students with the situation at hand. Although this was an issue the staff in the classroom tried to make the students feel welcome and that they were wanted in the classroom.However and problem with the new students coming into the classroom was that they used their hands to get your attention. And the two teachers in the classroom didn’t want the students to touch them. Thus a way that that this situation could have been fixed it to talk to the students and tell them that they shouldn't touch certain bodies parts but they could still use their hands and words to get the attention of the teacher. The teachers needed to understand that some students can’t or aren't able to express themselves with words so they use the next best thing and that is touching
