This is regarding an incident at Mercy Hospital of Buffalo with a Dr. Darren Huffman, on May 11th, 2018 at approximately 4pm-6pm. I went through the double doors and entered the first room in the E.R to the right. I believe it is known as the triage room. I came to Mercy Hospital because of a hand injury I received at work. I brought a piece of paper from workers compensation with me because of the injury. I just switched insurance providers and never picked a primary care physician. My hand was and still is swollen since the injury happened on 12/24/2017, and figured going to the nearest hospital would be the quickest way to get it checked out before I go to a specialist on the 17th of May.

In 2004, Riverview Medical Center (RRMC), originally called The Holy Name of Jesus Hospital, was acquired and revamped by the Hospital Management Associates (HMA) and has become a state of art facility with improved efficiencies to ensure high quality care. “RRMC is a 281-licensed bed acute care facility accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, certified for participation in the Medicare Program, and contracted/participated in Blue Cross Plans” (Richards & Slovensky, 2004). The facility is one of the primary employers in the area and provides job opportunities to approximately 700 individuals” (Richards & Slovensky, 2004). RRMC encountered significant challenges against their competitors, Mountain View, Gadsden Regional and HealthSouth. A major challenge was the fact that they were not the sole or primary healthcare provider in the market service area. Secondly, many of RRMC’s key medical staff members and group practices were not in a central location within the vicinity of the hospital. Thirdly, RRMC’s emergency department was in great need of renovation and they lacked in the variety of clinical programs they offered in terms of cancer treatment, neurosurgery, psychiatry, obstetrics, rehabilitation and surgical outpatient care.

“What do you want to be when you grow up?” As a child, we have all been asked this question; and as unrealistic children, we all had dreams of being a superhero, princess, cowboy, or astronaut. Later on in life, as time went by, and as we became more knowledgeable, our answers became more serious. Some of us wanted to be teachers, business owners, or a veterinarian. However, I have always wanted to be a doctor, but not just any doctor. For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be a pediatrician. Now, half way through my junior year in high school, I have started to question the details of this career, and all the hard work it takes to become a part of the medical field.

It was almost midnight when I got the call from Dr. Seagraves. She told me to meet her in the physicians lounge at 7 am: we had a case. The next morning began like any other in the operating room. We met with the patient, I received permission to observe and then got suited up for case. The patient was an elderly African American woman, she called me handsome and smiled comfortably. When we made it into the OR I was asked to help lift the patient from bed to table, with a subtle warning of “watch out, it’s gooey.” Dr. Seagraves parted the patient’s gown, exposing a mass of raw tissue that somewhat resembled a leg. The patient had suffered a week’s worth of necrotizing fasciitis, more commonly known as flesh eating bacteria. The wound had a certain odor, a putrid smell you do not forget. Our hearts sank in unison as we realized what we were up against. We had to act fast. Dr. Seagraves began scrubbing the wounded tissue as the Anaestesiologist monitored the patient’s progress. I had observed Dr. Seagraves on multiple occasions and never did she express concern for the outcome. For the first time in our relationship I heard her mutter, “This is not good. This is not good at all.”

My dream as a child was to become a nurse, to help people. As a young child, I enjoyed helping my grandmother change my grandfather’s bed and diaper. Also I made sure he took his medications. Even though I loved playing his nurse, it caused me pain view my hero in pain. In my young childhood

I was working on the final project, looking for various biodegradable plastic containers prices that can serve as an alternative for Mercy College. I found a small company called Biobag located in California. they produce compostable bags made from a "resin derived from plants, vegetable oils, and compostable polymers." Not petroleum-based plastic bag. they are willing to send us samples, but I don't know what address to use. Below is the company link for CAMPUS SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM SAMPLE REQUEST. Would you provide them a specific address so that the samples be sent directly to our campus?

The hospital industry has seen a dramatic change since the 1960s. Millions of dollars were poured into the industry causing a huge boom in independent hospitals and respectively a large boom in insurance coverage. Eventually the government had to step back in and reassess their role in health care. Here is what you need to know about the industry. Types of Health Care Programs: - HMOs are Health Maintenance Organizations that provide health care for a fixed monthly fee. - PPOs are Preferred Provider Organizations are usually offered through large employers where patients can more options and not be as restricted as an HMO. Ambulatory health care services are those that are used on an

What do you want to be when you grow up? The go-to question that every single adult must awkwardly negotiate when forced to interact with toddlers who unequivocally proclaim their plans to be Batman or Michael Jordan. I was first faced with this daunting question when I went to work- at the age of 3. Early in the morning my mom helped dress me in a tiny suit with a perfectly matching zip-up-tie and slipped my even smaller white coat with “Dr. Isaac” embroidered across the pocket over my shoulders. Clipboard in hand I called to Mr. Smith in the waiting room, “the doctor will see you now!” The doctor I was referring to was my father. His Littmann stethoscope tripped my small feet as I ran down the hallway to his office, with Mr. Smith struggling

In April of 2000, the Downtown Health Clinic (DHC), which is run and overseen by Perpetual Mercy Hospital (PHC), found out some troubling news and was very concerned about it. Perpetual Mercy Hospital was concerned about the possibility of a establishing a similar clinic five blocks north of their facility. The main concerned are that the new and upcoming clinic may take away DHC’s current patients and that such a similar clinic so close could put a damper the DHC’s profitability and financial
