...levels started early on and I witnessed it from the beginning. I was assigned to be in the front office. All the second years were there early in the morning with their patients in the waiting area. I helped greet all the patients. The clinicians were reviewing all the documents, took vitals and explained to their patients what was going to happen during the exam. Some of the clinicians were stressed out because their patients did not show up. I called them several times and some patients did not answer. At that moment I knew exactly how important it is to have a back up patient. I did not get to see what was happening during the examination time since most of the time I was in front office. I tried to go back to help out. However, I did hear that some clinicians did not have the correct set up because they thought everything was in the cassette when they sterilized it. There is no room for “thought” at an exam. It’s crucial to follow directions given by the instructors. Check, double check, triple check everything. Some forms were not filled out correctly according to the criteria so the patients got rejected. There were specifics about probing the exact quadrant that you are going to scale, not the entire mouth. They had to complete dental charting as well in that quadrant. At the end, all of the data would be calibrated. It was interesting to see all the patients having assigned numbers instead of their names. I enjoyed being a part of the Mock Board. At...

...businesses are going bankrupt from not changing with the times and poor customer service skills to name a few. Many are converting people to online shopping, so they don't have to deal with the rudeness and attitudes from retailers. They also can save money on gas and shop in the privacy of there own home. There are a few good retailers left Nordstrom, Best Buy, ULTA, Saks Fifth Avenue and Dicks to name a few that go out of their way, to give their customers a perfect shopping experience, which in turn keeps the consumer loyal always. With this in mind, one day I decided to purchase the Note II, since it has the features I was interested in. There was a screen lager than the average phone so I could stream movies and watch personal videos of family and friends. I able take notes in class or write a quick shopping list when needed with the cool stylus. Then I called Best Buy customer service to see if they can check the Winchester Best Buy to if they had the 32 gigabyte note II in stock .The customer service lady was very attentive to my needs and was a active listener, automatically restating everything correctly, that I said. Then she put me on hold for about 2 minutes or so to check Winchester Best Buy inventory in her computer. She responded it “looks like they have it”, but let me call the store to make sure, since it could be a computer error”. I was pleased with how she took the extra initiative to double check. Then she came back to the phone and responded, “they...

...1. Describe the production and judgment phases that you discern in Carlson’s invention. 2. What obstacles and hindrances did Carlson encounter as he creatively and critically worked on his new idea? 3. Citing a recent problem you have solved (or issue you tackled), briefly describe these two phases of thinking in your problem-solving. The production phase of Carlson’s invention would be the determination he had for finding a simpler way of making copies. He knew there had to be an easier way to make copies other than the length of time it took to retype and double check for typos or mistakes. Carlson did encounter different obstacles during the production of the Xerox machine. One obstacle was finding the chemicals to do it the best and simplest way. Two was funding and time. He was funding the invention his self and on his spare time. Third was finding a company that believed in his invention and help make this idea, a reality. To be perfectly honest, the latest issue that I tackled was figuring out how to save money on daycare. We were paying $175 every two weeks for my son to go to before and after care at his daycare. The before care is necessary because I have to be at work at 7 am, his dad has to be at work at 5 am, and his school doesn’t start until 8 am, but I would have to wait on him to get there in the evenings. I would get there about 3:30 and he wouldn’t get there until 4. I changed him to mornings only, wish is only $70 every two weeks, and he rides the...

...STEP 01: First you want to select a topic; the issue MUST be related to your field. Consider some ideas/issues that relate to your major. Consider what controversial (has more than one side / answer / opinion / etc) issues exist in your discipline / major and which are most interesting to you and/or relevant in your field today. To help you with that, you may want to move through the brainstorm / freewrite below to see if you can develop some of those ideas. You should use this to help you come up with ideas that you could discuss and develop on the DB. You may even want to post portions of what you came up with here on the DB. Thoughtful interaction could earn you some BONUS in the CE column and allow you to SPIN some ideas and nail down some solid topics. With that in mind, each student’s essay is to be unique with regards to its TOPIC / ISSUE / STANCE / ETC; therefore, the Board is meant to be a place to help shape ideas, not see one and “steal” it for your own essay. Topics will be reserved for those individuals who first bring them up and if similarities exist it will be the responsibility of the students to determine what different aspects of the issue will be explored by each (first poster gets first choice). I will NOT allow the “casual” student (one who is hanging around on the roster but not really submitting assignments and/or participating on the previous Boards) tell me at the last minute that “X” is his/her project when a conscientious student already articulated...

...of the event so we could start promptly. The student arrived on time as I did. We went straight to the operating theatre where we were going to be working for the day. On arriving in that theatre I discovered it had been used prior and was left in an untidy state so I had to tidy it up before we could proceed. Had I have thought before hand I could have checked the day before to ensure this was not the case. I started by showing the student the anaesthetic machine we were going to use, explained the different parts and how they function. The student looked a bit perplexed at the terminology I used so I tried more simple terminology and explanations and that seemed to help. After the brief explanation of how the anaesthetic machine worked I described The checks we were going to carry out. I showed the student the 2012 guide to checking the machine produced by the College of Anaesthetists which is the one we currently use. We started to check the machine going through the guide step by step as described. It took quiet a while to complete the check. Afterwards I asked the student if they followed what we had done, the student commented it was a bit too much to go through in one session. I think looking back that I should have broken down the process into perhaps two or more sessions allowing the student time to take in and question the information. For future teaching I will definitely allocate more time in more separate sessions as not to bombard the student with what...

...& Smith, CPAs, about their previous engagements. This limits us on the information on the 10-K previously filed. Considering that the auditors expressed concerns about “mutually incongruent goals”, it raises many red flags about what these particular goals are therefore it would be helpful if we are able to speak with them to learn exactly what those red flags are. Looking through the control procedure manual, the treasurer signs the checks. She also inspects any voided and spoiled checks. This may become an issue because she is the person signing the checks as well as reviewing the voided making it easier to commit fraud. Another thing that looks a little suspicious is the personal loan of $1,000,000 made to Mr. Lancaster’s personal secretary which is supposed to be for an employee advancement. Mr. Lancaster recorded the loan as “Other receivables” rather than Employee “Employee advances”. Mr. Lancaster wants the check written to him instead of his secretary. That’s a fairly large amount of money to give someone in cash instead of a check. There is a new information systems that was purchased in early 2010 that has still not been set up by January 2012 (two years later) and when asked about it, Mr. Lancaster stated that “the machinery would be set up soon”. Those are just a few instances that where fraud may be occurring within...

I very slowly introduced myself and colleague’s name that we will be giving her a wash and dress in bed. Mrs. B smiled. * Preparation(b) We disinfected our hands and dried (it was provided on the wall dispenser) and put the gloves on. I asked Mrs. B whether she will dress anything particular, she said “no”. I opened Mrs. B’s wardrobe and took out two pairs of cloths and showed her which one of them she likes, she pointed to blue trouser and top. I then looked for a net kinkier, a pair of socks and placed on a chair. I switched on the light and closed door, window and curtains. I asked my colleague to double check whether we have all the necessary things to start the washing; she said “everything is in place”. I once again checked any possible harm that may directly or indirectly effect on our work. * Carrying out I told Mrs. B that we are ready now; she said you can start now. I took a basin, which her name written on it. Run the tap, checked the water temperature with my hand and filled warm water half and added some soap.

...Writing a Book Report Summary: This resource discusses book reports and how to write them. Contributors: Purdue OWL (owl.English.purdue.edu) Book reports are informative reports that discuss a book from an objective stance. They are similar to book reviews but focus more on a summary of the work than an evaluation of it. Book reports commonly describe what happens in a work; their focus is primarily on giving an account of the major plot, characters, thesis, and/or main idea of the work. Most often, book reports range from 250 to 500 words. Before You Read Before you begin to read, consider what types of things you will need to write your book report. First, you will need to get some basic information from the book: • Author • Title • Publisher location, name of publisher, year published • Number of Pages You can either begin your report with some sort of citation, or you can incorporate some of these items into the report itself. Next, try to answer the following questions to get you started thinking about the book: • Author: Who is the author? Have you read any other works by this author? • Genre: What type of book is this: fiction, nonfiction, biography, etc.? What types of people would like to read this kind of book? Do you typically read these kinds of books? Do you like them? • Title: What does the title do for you? Does it spark your interest? Does it fit well with the text of the book? • Pictures/Book Jacket/Cover/Printing:...

...pills from the automated dispensing cabinet. The nurse proceeded to administer the medication before using the barcode scanning system. Not using the barcode was her first mistake. The nurse scanned the barcode after the patient had already consumed the pills. A pop up error came up saying "medication not found" because the daily dose of hydrochlorothiazide had already been given that day. Thankfully, the patient survived this incorrect administration of medication with no side effects to report. The nurse in this scenario administered the wrong medication that ended up being four times the prescribed dose of something that had already been given that day. Although this patient survived this overdose, there are numerous amounts of other medications that could have easily killed this patient within minutes. The nurse made a serious mistake and gave the wrong dose of the wrong medication at the wrong time, putting the patients life in jeopardy. There were many incidences leading up to this error including how similar the two drug names...

...probation period of four months, during these four months an employee cannot call in sick without a doctor’s note, cannot be late to a shift more than twice, and cannot call in to be absent. One day I had a really bad migraine and ear ache and decided to call in sick. The next day when I went back to work I had forgotten to get a doctor’s note to take to work and my supervisor had advice me to get one the following day or my job could be in jeopardy. The week went by and I had forgotten about the note, when my probation evaluation was up that incident came up and the department supervisor decided I had to be terminated. About three days earlier my husband was also terminated from his job due to our childcare issues. Now that it happened and time has passed to reflect on what went wrong I believe a way to solve this problem in a persuasive thinking manner would have been for myself to go to work that day and speak with my supervisor and explain to him that I knew the rules of calling in sick during the probation period. I would of also gone straight to the doctor’s right after to get the a note in regards to my sickness. If my husband would have sought an outside source for our son’s childcare, for example family members or friends then the outcome of that day would have been different. If we would have placed this type of thinking into our week then we would have had a better conclusion....
