Nervously, I walked into the hospital like I do every year to get my yearly checkup. I was so afraid of what they were going to tell me because every time for the past five years that I have gone I have gained ten pounds each checkup and it feels as if for every every pound I gain there’s another health problem that comes with it. After waiting fifteen minutes in the waiting room it was finally my turn to get my checkup. My doctor, Dr.Miami told me to step on the scale before anything else to see how much weight I gained since my last checkup. I stepped on the scale and to my surprise I went from weighing two hundred and fifty pounds to two hundred and seventy pounds! “Wow” he said, “ I can already tell you that this checkup won’t turn out well.” Feeling both insulted and embarrassed we …show more content…
That’s easy I thought to myself as I tried with all my might to do so, but sadly I couldn’t. I couldn’t do any of the simple task he asked me to do.next he checks my heart rate and blood pressure. He tells me I have a heart rate of one hundred and twenty beats per minute and a high blood pressure of one hundred and sixty over eighty! He tells me that if I don’t start taking better care of myself that I was going to die. After the checkup was over I went to my car and I sat there thinking about what he said. I decided that it was time for me to lose some weight and start working out. The only problem is I have no idea what I’m suppose to do. I get home and I go sit on my couch as I try to think of ways to lose weight when it hits me. I decided to order a treadmill online so I can use it everyday and lose weight. Three weeks later the treadmill gets here and I have gained five pounds just waiting for it to get here. Sadly I have no idea how to set it up so I decided to get a membership at planet fitness instead and workout there. I get to planet fitness and I see an unoccupied treadmill just calling my name to use

Soaked under sweat, I stood on the running machine, took a deep breath, and counted in my mind, one…two… three, GO! With renewed power and confidence, I started to run again with satisfaction. This moment happened every day in last summer at a gym and I lost 62pounds. Had persisted for five months, I am so proud of myself that I am able to achieve the goal of losing weight and established high self-discipline. In addition, I have gained great appreciation for the challenges. However, I also have grown up from this, on the other hand, frustrated experience. Not because the process of losing weight was painful, but because my by-product of the weight loss journey, my online team.
My kids have had no childhood illnesses other than chickenpox, which they both contracted while still breastfeeding. They too grew up on a healthy diet, homegrown organics etc. Not to the same extent as I did, though, as I was not quite as strict as my mother, but they are both healthier than I have ever
On 08/03/17, at approximately 2:54pm, I Deputy Warden N. Christian with Franklin County Animal Care and Control (FCACC) was dispatched to 38 S Wheatland Ave on an injury-possible dangerous or vicious dog. I arrived at the location and saw a small terrier mix (black/brown) loose on the front porch of that location. I approached the location. I slowly approached the front porch, where I placed a leash on the small terrier mix. I knocked on the door. Caller Lisa Vanskle came outside and I asked if this was the dog that bite someone. She stated it was. I advised her that I would return after I placed the small terrier mix in my vehicle. I returned to the above location and spoke to Ms. Vanskle and her son (victim) Travis Vanskle. I asked
One fateful day at the end of June in 1998 when I was spending some time at home; my mother came to me with the bad news: my parent's best friend, Tommy, had been diagnosed with brain cancer. He had been sick for some time and we all had anxiously been awaiting a prognosis. But none of us were ready for the bumpy roads that lay ahead: testing, surgery, chemotherapy, nausea, headaches, and fatigue. Even loud music would induce vomiting. He just felt all around lousy.
Over Thanksgiving Break, I had scheduled a doctor's appointment. The hospital that I go to is not big, but its the only one around so I knew there would be a good amount of people around to see me humiliate myself. I dressed for the occasion! Green jacket, and red tights. Of course I could never look like Buddy the Elf, but I got pretty close. When I walked into the hospital lobby, I noticed that there wasn’t anybody around, so I figured I would just have to do it a couple time in order to get some pretty good results. I...
The doctor's office was crowded as I checked in at the front desk. "Do you have insurance?" the lady at the window asks several times before I realized she was talking to me. "I'm just here to talk to the doctor about my lab results" I squeaked, "Sign here, Please."
Annette was performing her usual head, neck, and oral exam on a patient and she found an enlarged thyroid. She recommended to the patient that she go see her primary care physician to get a better diagnosis. The patient went to her primary care physician and was told it was probably nothing. Later the patient returned to the dental office and saw Annette and told her what the physician said. Annette could not take that as a final answer and told her that she would not just leave it and should get a second opinion and have other test run. The patient went back
Back then, I didn’t understand why he needed all the paperwork and permission to help me out. It wasn’t until now that I took this class and learned that trainers need to be careful with paperwork, or they can get sued. I learned that there are many other reasons for which he couldn’t help me right away. As soon as he received all the paperwork that he needed, he gave me exercises to work on.
It was 3:00 pm when the built up excitement occurred. The last bell of the day stroked the clock, I would always be in a rush to place my materials away and meet my father always with a smile at the front of the school. The trip from my elementary school to the clinic felt like a decade. My dad was a dental surgeon who worked in a particular clinic composed of different doctors. At the entrance there was the help desk, Carmen siting behind it and always greeting you with a smile “Good afternoon Doctor.” Behind the front desk there was a hallway that hosted two doors on the right and two doors on the left. Through those doors there was a different kind doctor. The first door on the left contained a neurosurgeon doctor and the door behind it had a pediatric doctor. The first room on the right contained an orthodontic dentist
It was a doctor looking for Kamryn which was my name, he asked me if I knew anyone named Olivia Hudspeth. I said yes “Do you have any news about her?” “Yes I found her” He replied. “Some of the ceiling had fallen on her legs.” The man said, “Is she okay?”
Health care administration provides a person with an opportunity to lead guide and manage in health systems. Health care administrators are not engaged in treating the patients in person, but they work actively behind the scenes making their best possible efforts for the betterment of the people. I got myself enrolled into this course because this was the only program that could challenge and bring the best in me refining my leadership, communication, administrative skills.
We have learned about lung sounds, bowel sounds, heart sounds in lecture and I got to listen for them on a real person today and it was different than the sim lab and neat. I also got to put an IV in today and when we were in sim lab we lectured over that and practiced. I was very nervous before entering the room, but the patient was grateful enough to let me a, student, stick her so I made sure when I entered that room my nerves could not be seen. When I practiced in sim, even on the arm, I was super shaky. Giving the IV today in clinical my hand was steady, and I stuck her once and I went a little too far through the vein, so my preceptor told me to back out a little and lower the needle toward the skin then advance and I got a flash of blood.
