...Helping Field Summary Lynda McCarthy, Charline Meeks, Debbie Warnke, Marcial Wiggins BSH/305: Historical Development of Human Services: An Introduction August 31, 2014 Mary Newhams Why Professionals Choose the Helping Field Written by Debbie Warnke I believe the reason professionals choose the helping field is because of a sense of accomplishment and the idea of being able to make a difference. Many human service professionals refer to this type of work as a “calling” and having the ability to show an individual or family how to become self-sufficient is a satisfaction that only someone in the helping field can describe. Why Choose the Helping Field Many of the individuals in the helping field are known as “idealists.” They have what is known as a NF (iNtuitive /Feeling) temperament. This temperament gives an individual a sense of purpose and they are known to be more creative, more empathetic, and have a tendency to focus on feelings more than facts. An individual with the NF temperament are often impatient with the business world, policies, and procedures, and are more likely to focus ultimately on the bottom line ( Myers, et al.,1998). Other reasons professionals chose to enter the helping field is because they know someone with a mental illness or addiction, they have other family members that are in the same/similar field, they like to help people that are in high risk situations such as substance...

...Reflective Summary Ashley Winn BSHS 375 September 20, 2015 University of Phoenix Reflective Summary Technology has positively affected the field of human services in my opinion. It has improved services as well as access to benefits. Technology advances has made it easier to reach those who are need and provide services that will meet their needs. The use of mobile technology such as laptops, smartphones, and tablets, allows staff to access information needed to assist clients while out in the field. Technology has also allowed clients the option of applying and managing services and benefits from the privacy of their own homes. This option helps to eliminate the stigma and challenges that are associated with those who apply and receive services and benefits. Technology allows various programs and agencies to collaborate with one another in order to deliver services to their clients more efficiently. As with almost anything, there will be advantages as well as disadvantages that come along. Technology is rapidly changing and therefore it is important that not only the human service provider but also the client stay up to date with technology, this will allow them to work together much easier. I hope to learn more about the privacy and security issues that come along with the use of technology. I hope to learn ways on how to ensure that I will be able to keep my clients information safe. Another thing that I hope to learn is creative ways to incorporate technology to...

...domestic animals, they also have to have a knowledge of exotic animals as well. They strive to improve public health. Their job is to diagnose, treat and research medical conditions and diseases of pets, livestock and all other animals (Summary). There is not a set schedule for a veterinarian so be prepared to work a lot of additional hours, such as nights and weekends. They must also be available for those emergencies that sometimes pop up (Veterinarians). Much like an MD, a veterinarian is never off the clock! Veterinarians make a very decent salary, and if research is done correctly, the pay scale varies for this particular career. In May of 2015, the median annual wage for veterinarians was $88,490. The lowest ten percent earned less than $53, 210 and the highest ten percent earned more than $158,260 (Veterinarians). A Lot of this is based on certain locations. For instance, a veterinarian in New York has an average salary of $91,160 per year. Whereas in Alabama, the average salary is only $74, 540 per year. Both are decent but quite different as well. Employment of veterinarians is expected to have a projected growth rate of nine percent from 2104 to 2024. This is faster than the average for all occupations (Summary). The veterinary field has a wide range of options when it comes to work. Most veterinarians work on their own in private clinics and hospitals. Some even make house calls to farms or homes. Some of them work in laboratories or classrooms. While others work...

...events in a widely presentable form. Written reports are documents which present focused, salient content to a specific audience. Reports are often used to display the result of an experiment, investigation, or inquiry. The audience may be public or private, an individual or the public in general. Reports are used in government, business, education, science, and other fields. Reports use features such as graphics, images, voice, or specialized vocabulary in order to persuade that specific audience to undertake an action. One of the most common formats for presenting reports is IMRAD: Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion. This structure is standard for the genre because it mirrors the traditional publication of scientific research and summons the ethos and credibility of that discipline. Reports are not required to follow this pattern, and may use alternative patterns like the problem-solution format. Additional elements often used to persuade readers include: headings to indicate topics, to more complex formats including charts, tables, figures, pictures, tables of contents, abstracts,and nouns summaries, appendices, footnotes, hyperlinks, and references. Some examples of reports are: scientific reports, recommendation reports, white papers, annual reports, auditor's reports, workplace reports, censusreports, trip reports, progress reports, investigative reports, budget reports, policy reports, demographic reports, credit reports, appraisal reports, inspection reports...

...Social Work Pioneer Biography Monica Quinn University of Southern Mississippi Abstract Mary Ellen Richmond and Whitney M. Young, Jr. were both social work pioneers that changed the face of the social work profession. This essay discusses their backgrounds, challenges they faced, and the road to their success. It also discusses the contributions they made to the field of social work as well as their awards and achievements. Their backgrounds, though very different, led them both to the same calling - helping those in need. Social Work Pioneers Introduction of Pioneer Mary Ellen Richmond, an essential part in the organization of the Social Work profession, was born in Belleville, Illinois in 1861 to Henry and Lavina Richmond. At the age of three, she was sent to live with her maternal grandmother and two aunts after both her parents died of tuberculosis. Richmond's grandmother was a spiritualist and a radical therefore; Richmond was exposed to "discussions of suffrage, racial problems, spiritualism, and a variety of liberal religious, social, and political beliefs" (Szymoniak, n.d.). Her family disapproved of the traditional education system so Richmond was home-schooled until the age of eleven. According to Rev. Phyllis L. Hubbell, the only reported education she received while being home-schooled was from reading books that were loaned to her by an aunt with the requirement that she would give an account of what she had read (2007). Surprisingly, her dedication...

If I make a mistake on the job, I can’t just restart or erase the problem. Someone dies.
