Personal Statement : Health Coaches

Coaches need to have certain skills and knowledge to undertake the role. In my opinion a coach needs to be patient, supportive, interested, aware of others as well as self, attentive and perceptive. Such elements underpin effective coaching and a genuine interest in the person being coached.

The profession that I am interested in is an Athletic Trainer. I have chosen this career because it is something that I have recently become passionate about within the last two years. I have never been the kind of person to struggle with weight, however after having my 3rd and last child, weight has become an issue. I mention my personal struggle to give insight on why I have chosen an Athletic Trainer. This profession’s main goal is physical fitness. As a trainer you become responsible for another person’s physical active lifestyle. Assisting clients from injury to recovery, evaluating their bodies and advising the individual what is best. Athletic Trainers has many responsibilities. AT’s are professionals in the health care world who mainly caters to athletes. An AT however isn’t limited to just athletes. They work with just about anyone. Ages ranging from a child to an adult. Different skill and jobs, people such as soldiers, high school athletes, and professional athletes.

I am a sophomore student at Shepherd University. Although I am not a student athlete, I am an intern with the football team in the position of Quality Control Coach. I needed an additional credit hour to complete this semester as a rising Junior and my advisor felt this would be a good course because I essentially have the same schedule as a student athlete.

Wellness Coach called Robin Stevens HudVash Field Manager to ask for assistance in retaining information on Richard Bellamy. Ms. Stevens was not able to gain information from the Manhattan VA via phone either. Ms. Stevens expressed to Wellness Coach Teresa Cain that she will be going to the Manhattan VA today or tomorrow (11/28/16 or 11/29/16) to see how Mr. Bellamy is doing since he submitted himself into the hospital. Mr. Bellamy stated that he had lice, was using crack cocaine, fell under a depression, and informed the hospital that he was evicted. Wellness Coach also called Detective Newton at the 75th precinct to update him on the location of Richard Bellamy. However Dectective Newton did not pick up, wellness coach left a voicemail.

On the other end of the spectrum, there are many coaches who are not only well-trained in the core coaching skills, but also have dozens of other qualifications and/or relevant personal experience in leadership issues. Let 's call this the "expertise" end of the spectrum. These coaches typically have training in a wide variety of assessments, team intervention protocols, or other specific competencies of common interest to leaders or their organizations. At this end of the spectrum, coaching is often kicked off with some form of assessment, or more elaborate intake process, which sets the learning agenda for the subsequent coaching.

I have been very involved in HOSA (Future Health Professionals) which has allowed me to discover and pursue my interest in the medical field. HOSA has health career competitions, where I was able to compete at the state level in Sports Medicine, win 2nd Place in state level Pathophysiology and compete internationally in Pathophysiology. At HOSA conferences I have gotten to meet professionals and learn more about their fields, ranging from cardiothoracic surgery to chiropractic medicine. HOSA has influenced my future in a way that inspired me to help others pursue their interest in the medical field because of that I became the VP of Service. As VP of Service, I lead volunteer activities including the school blood drive and decorating the Northeast

My academic goals are to complete my coursework at UIW with a AS degree in Health Science with a focus on nutrition by the summer of 2017. Since UIW only offers a AS online for ADCAP students, I plan to transfer my credits to Arizona State University Online program for Healthy Lifestyle Coaching to get my BS in nutrition education. I am a sophomore now at UIW with credits that can be transferred to an accredited school, in which I will need to be able to take my exam for licensing in the state of Texas for a registered Dietitian/Nutrition.

Health coaching intervention research aims can be explored using either a theoretical or conceptual model approach since this novel intervention is relevant to several existing perspectives, therefore conflicting views can arise in determining what is the most appropriate model adaptation. Currently, a model consensus on the use of health coaches has not been established, but based on this review it appears to be most grounded to the CCM, a theoretical framework. Implications for future research concerning health coaching include further exploration of this intervention and its influence and relevance to existing viewpoints.

As the health care field grows, the need for physicians grow. As society grows and as our communities diversify, the various perspectives and experiences of a diverse group of physicians are integral aspects of health care. The restless drive and determination of a doctor to make sure his/her patients are well are one of the utmost showcases of altruism, humility, and humanitarianism. I want to contribute to my community in this way and positively impact patients' and their families lives. In addition, applying science, research, and innovation to medicine intrigues me.

Through my experience with sports, particularly volleyball, I always knew I wanted to work with athletes, like myself. My ideal post-graduate job would be an athletic trainer. The dream is to work at the training booths at sports tournaments and camps helping athletes with minor injuries. My decision to become an athletic trainer has stemmed from my desire to remain in the sports world long after my college volleyball career is has completed. I have always been strong in Science and Mathematics, I am so glad that I was able to finally pick a major based on my athlete’s schedule, career goals, and academic strengths. Along with athletic training, I want to be a coach. Not only do I want to be a coach, but a phenomenal coach; someone that

The requirements to be a coach I have to have a bachelor's or master's degree depending on the state requirements. Field of study required is secondary education and coaching.

Working to find creative, fun , and effective ways to empower people to manage their health is a passion for me, and one that I intend to pursue as I continue my education to become a Family Nurse

On Friday October 28, 2016 Wellness Coach Teresa Cain went to knock on Richard Bellamy apartment door but there was no answer from Mr. Bellamy. It has been over three weeks since staff has seen Mr. Bellamy. The next step was to do a missing person’s report.
