1. Types of positions you expect to pursue I would like to expand on my current position as a coordinator of the Four County SART (sexual assault response team) program. This is a brand-new program located in North West (NW) Ohio. Right now, we can only do acute exams with evidence collection for pediatric sexual assault, that is within 72 hours’ range. I would like to be able to provide non-acute exams for the pediatric population at our clinic. 2. Client populations with whom you expect to interface Working at the clinic I encounter all ages of the human population from infants to elderly patients in the rural countryside, villages, and small towns. These patients are usually very family oriented with strong generational connections. …show more content…
We currently are in a donated space within a medical building. This has been good for us to start out with, but we may have to look for another facility as we expand. I believe that it is imperative that we keep it away from the typical sexual assault exam setting of Emergency Departments (ER). From my experience our patients are better off in quiet, confidential, and more personal surrounding than an ER provides. We have had interest from another adjoining county looking to join the team. Because we are rural our clients are spread out, and transportation to our clinic may be a problem for many. Offering gas cards and volunteers to help with transport is something I will need to continue to provide for my …show more content…
In my 5-year career plan of completing my BSN, I am offering my patients the knowledge I have gained during the pursuit of higher education. By continuing to attend conferences and seeking out the best new standards of care, I am committed to providing the best possible care to my patients. I will treat each patient fairly and offer them the same skills no matter what background or area they come from. I cannot make judgements on my patients, or their history, as I know that my presentation may have a direct effect on the way that they view their sexual
To effectively provide health care services to my patients, I undertake to listen to issues raised by patients and their relatives. During the process of interacting with my clients I will first of all introduce myself to
Before 2012 El Paso, TX never had a children’s hospital. In fact it was the largest metropolis city that did have a pediatric hospital according to (El Paso Childrens Hospital, 2016). El Paso Children’s Hospital serves a dramatically underserved pediatric region where there are approximately 222,000 children that are enrolled with Medicaid in 2011. This statistic demonstrates the magnitude of having a skilled specialty of pediatric services.

Thank you for your response regards to "Rolling Meadows Community Hospital". John did not act in a fairly manner by not giving the intern the position. Even though John did confess his truly feelings it still ended up being an altercation not only for him but the hospital as well. I agree where you stated "This provide an understanding that just because one doesn’t physically touch or ask for physical contact doesn’t mean you can’t get in trouble for comment." I believe John felt like he could get away with this case just because he was the CEO of the hospital but it obviously does not matter what type of position you hold in a work environment; this should not be tolerated at any work environment.
Generational gaps can be found when doing a heritage assessment. Things such as if the patient speaks their native language at home and also whether they currently follow traditional methods of their culture or have picked up American culture. Also, another important thing to look at is religion as this helps us to know if someone is going to turn to religion and praying to seek out healing power through that or if they will be totally relying on traditional medicine. If a patient has close ties to a religious community making sure that this
Comparing the three interviews, it is apparent that all three cultures could require a different healthcare approach. It is interesting to see the family dynamics, and pasts all play a role in their healthcare decision-making and thoughts. Being aware that each family dynamic is unique it is important to avoid stereotypes, and get
As part of an ongoing effort to improve access to healthcare in rural areas, WeCARE Family Clinic are proposing the start-up of our new family medicine practice in Plains, Georgia. The business will be owned and managed by myself, Dr. Ieshia O. Roberts, MD as a sole proprietorship. I will be responsible for ensuring the general health of my patients and creating a viable and profitable medical practice. Throughout the year, my staff and I will work closely with advisors from Phoebe-Sumter Medical Center to get the clinic on a sound financial and operational footing, using this medical clinic business plan as a guiding management tool.
I went into the Inglewood Neighborhood Health Clinic to switch my PCP back to them. There was a misunderstanding of who I had chosen to be my PCP. I have been have severe pain upper left abdomen area just under the ribs as well as in my back in the same area as the front also accompanying upper inner thigh area of my leg. I had been to the E.R. a few times and also did a walk in at the Inglewood Clinic and the Internal Medicine Clinic at Nashville Metro General Hospital. Yet still no one has figured out what is causing my pain. Needless to say, I went to Nashville Metro General to get a letter stating that I wanted Latrina Blakemore to be my PCP because she was the only one trying to do the test in order to figure out my pain. But the nurse there Sandi in the front lobby wants to talk very loudly about my health and my situation where as everyone
PER REPORTER: Kristen said a report was made on Sonny by another registered nurse (Becca) who also works for the Pediatric Clinic on January 5, 2018. Kristen said she tried calling to follow up on the report which was made by Becca by called CPS in Forrest County. However, Kristen said there were no Social Workers there for her to speak with regarding the report. Kristen said Sonny was scheduled to come into the clinic on yesterday January 15, 2018 to have his weight checked. Kristen said Sonny has poor weight gain due to his mother not waking up in the middle of the night to feed him. Kristen said the child’s mother was a no show for the child’s appointment on yesterday. Kristen also said there is history documented in the family’s hospital
seph, I personally don’t have children yet but I think that responding to a pediatric patient will be the hardest call behind responding to family and friends. Going back to my first year of being a lifeguard, there was a child that was left unattended by his parents and he injured himself. immediately after he injured himself we activated our emergency action plan and I responded and assisted with back boarding the child, just as we were putting on the last strap the child’s mother came up from behind and started yelling and attacking the lifeguards thinking we were injuring her child. After talking with the women she demanded that we release her child even with the possibly of major head trauma, so we had her sign the paper work and released
My second field site of observation, or the Suitcase General Clinic, a large gym area situated in a church near campus, though also relatively run-down and dilapidated, was markedly different, as rather than possessing a waiting lobby surrounded by cubicles which defined the appropriate location of where patient-volunteer interaction “should” take place, the Suitcase General Clinic had a large common room where volunteers and clients alike interacted and moved freely around. Furthermore, though this field site also had various different stations like the Berkeley Free Clinic, such as a housing division, legal consultation team, hair-cutting services, and foot-washing, these stations were all relatively “open” to the clients, not sealed off or necessarily restrictive in their scope of access; one did not have to make an appointment prior to coming into clinic. My last field site, or the Suitcase Youth/LGBTQ+ Clinic, was relatively similar to the General Clinic, its only difference being that it was held in a smaller gym area, it had different, distinct decorations (LBGT flags), and that the music played appealed to a younger
The SickKids Hospital is mainly aimed at maintaining a suitable and financial status. The graphs provided above provide a suitable outlook of the hospital’s main source of revenue, available assets, and the specific areas as well as percentage of funds invested in children’s health. The main sources of revenue as presented in the pie chart include events, corporate partnerships, direct marketing, individual giving, net lottery, and parking fees. With the funds collected, a great percentage of the investment is directed towards child care, research, education, national and international relations. Through profitability generated from the performance, SickKids Hospital invests the remaining section of its funds to asset acquisition.
Cons: Potential for damage to our image. Could become known as a "woman's clinic." Some men might not feel comfortable knowing this type of service might be in the room next to them. Might change the atmosphere of the clinic. I also don't think this is something you could advertise in the paper. I think this is a good idea, however might cause more long-term harm than good to the clinic.

The significance of community hospitals such as Community Hospital in Monmouth County, New Jersey, is greater than one may expect for primary and secondary care services provided to the local communities around the United States. Community Hospital’s mission is to provide exceptional primary care. However, with the declination of profitability in primary care, Community Hospital has had to compete with Shore University Medical Center (SUMC) and University Hospital (UH) for revenue restoration. The decline of Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements and the steady progression toward specialty care vs. primary care require a core alteration to the mission statement to adjust to the changes within the current healthcare system. A newly modified mission and vision statement will prove that Community Hospital has the ability to regain its relevance within the healthcare industry as a leading primary care provider in the community and increase its revenue. The implementation of the new mission and vision for Community Hospital is expected to be upheld without compromising the core values of compassion, advancement, reputation, efficiency, and physician integration. A few proposed strategies to help Community Hospital create a new and improved business model, may seem cumbersome and challenging, however could greatly improve the overall direction of Community Hospital.
