Another resident assistant that I interviewed was Patrick Fullerton who serves Blanton Hall. His attention to carrying out the position in its entirety showed how I will also need to prioritize my commitments. A resident assistant is first a student and a worker second, so being able to carry out the demands of a RA but acknowledging that school is equally as important is crucial. Patrick’s excitement about encouraging residents exploration of the campus and the Red Hawk experience showed how a resident assistant’s job is never ending. You’re always recreating new ways to redefine the experience at MSU worthwhile especially for first-year and younger students. He spoke so proudly about the various programs, either social or educational, that

Kate, was my RA and really helped to make the transition a positive experience rather than a negative one. Which really made me feel like part of the community around campus and in the dorm, honestly she is what made me apply to become a RA myself. If I could help anyone else create a positive experience for someone else in a daunting situation, that would really give me a lot of joy. Moreover, I was part of Student Leadership for a year at my last college and it has given me a lot of experience with helping to navigate students along with helping them in anyway I can as a
That revelation came during Robinson’s sophomore year of college and now, 26, she is still living in residence halls interacting with students like she did with Charlotte. Robinson is in charge of more than 400 students and their RAs. “I didn’t even know that my job existed until I was a sophomore in college,” she said. Robinson has been a hall director at State U....
I was excited to see your job opening for Human Resource Assistant on Mesa County Workforce Center page.
I have recently started working as an interpreter at Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio. Through this job, I have become my patients' voice. The experience has made me live their pain, feel their sadness, and revel in their willingness to heal; reinforcing, in my eyes, that we are not treating disease but the patient as a
“So, when I didn’t get it my next goal was to get it.” Adrianna stated with a gleam in her eyes, as if the thought of rejection was motivation to move forward. Apart from being involved in housing, a few clubs and programs she has done has been Key Club as well as being a discussion leader for Undecided and Undeclared. It was becoming a discussion leader that led her to want to focus her intention to becoming a Resident Advisor specifically for students under Undecided/Undeclared majors. “I identify as one as well, so when I was applying my second time I was a lot more intentional to when I was applying to that sort of audience.” Adrianna, is currently a triple major in Criminology, Law and Society, Political Science, and Education. Her second
One recent group I was member of was the trainer for newly hired medical assistants at work. The group consisted of 10 members. The 10 members each represented one of the ten doctors who practice at the clinic where I am employed. As a member of the team we were encouraged to train each new person hired as a medical assistant for each specific doctor. The training consisted of introducing the new hires to each department, familiarizing them with the daily tasks for the specific doctor the new employee was hired to work for, and helping them transition into their position. In some ways this team was similar to a mentorship program. The members were all encouraged to communicate with one another if there were any difficulties. We generally
As the interview came to a close, the resident remained comfortable and seemed to be open to yet more questions. I feel that the interview was a success not only for myself but for her as well. She learned a few simple safety tips and most of all, enjoyed the company.
My role as a Resident Assistant requires a set of multifaceted skills and abilities. These skills are paramount in order to make Loyola a second home for residents and to support their growth through the year. The Resident Assistant position requires the ability to perform conflict management, support the academic and socio-emotional needs of students, and to assist in crisis or duty situations. In addition, the job requires programming that engages residents in both the hall community as well as the larger Loyola and Chicago communities.
Today was a lot more exciting than Tuesday, we had a good number of patients scheduled for different things. I went on both sides of the operatory and saw more interesting stuff on Dr. Williams side. The dental assistant was taking some impressions for a full set of dentures and basically showed me everything that needed to be done for the full set of dentures to be made. The next patient was a doctor and he could not hear for nothing. So, the whole time me and the hygienist was talking he could not hear anything we had to say. At the very end after he was all done, he looked up at the hygienist and said were you guys talking crap about me. I was like no sir we were not. The next patient on the assistant’s side just came in for Invisalign impressions
I had a very rewarding experience with my interview. I interviewed a lady named Jody Dawson. She is a nurse educator at Mckay Dee Hospital. I learned a lot of important information about working as a public health educator at for intermountain healthcare. She explained to me that people in this position are focused on improving employee and community health. They made a bold statement about a month ago by going sugar free. They did this to make it a more healthy and healing environment. She told me that my experience working in a hospital will improve my chances of recovering a job there.
I have been taking Nursing Assistant classes full-time this year through Eastern Arizona College. Apart of the process includes a clinical trial. Four Saturdays of this semester I shadowed Certified Nursing Assistants (CNA) at our local Nursing Facility, Haven of Safford. These clinicals are for the length of a ten hour period. I have the opportunity to observe and assist the CNAs as they accomplish their daily workload. A few of the tasks that need to be accomplished daily include waking up and providing care for the residents, showering the resident, feeding the resident, and assisting them with any other personal needs. Clinicals have been something I have come to enjoy. I have loved interacting with the people in the facility, and helping
As a resident adviser (RA) on campus, I am required to stay later and complete room checks for my floor before the start of each break. Back in March, I signed the offer and one of the conditions is that I am required to be available on specific dates in order to perform certain duties. Additionally, the job puts a strong emphasis on prioritizing the RA position and because the terms were clear in the contract and we received it well in advanced, we were held accountable to their dates and duties (unless there is a case of emergency).
My role as a geriatric nursing assistant created the beautiful experience of caring for the elderly in an assistant living facility. I learned, observe, and empathize with the seniors who are at the end stage of life. Through my experiences, I’ve witness loneliness, financial struggles, health challenges and a sense of belonging. Out of those top four, I would say loneliness is the biggest challenge that consumes their well-being. I’ve had conversations where one can feel the emptiness that filled these human beings heart. They want love, compassion, care and the feel that they matter. Some are lucky enough to have family members visit them every week, whereas others are on their own. The point of sitting in their rooms for hours when they
I started my Independent Study at Young Child Associates. I worked as an assistant teacher there for two years. I left Young Child Associate in July of 2016 and joined the Community Action Agency team in August of 2016. I have been an assistant teacher since I joined the early childhood education field in 2014. I am currently in the role of active lead teacher, because the lead teacher is on maternity leave. Throughout my journey as an assistant teacher I have learned the importance of trying new things and becoming flexible.
