When soluble fibers trap nutrients and delay their transit through the GI tract, glucose absorption is slowed, which helps to prevent the glucose surge and rebound that seem to be associated with diabetes onset. *Increasing Dietary Fiber- 1.

...Unfortunately, the workers’ compensation system is subject to fraud by both employers and employees. On the employer side, some companies try to avoid the cost of paying workers’ compensation premiums by simply breaking the law and not insuring their employees. An audit in Florida, for example, found that 13 percent of employers did not have workers’ compensation insurance. Because premiums are based on payroll, some employers underreport their payroll.9 Employee fraud also occurs and can involve collecting benefits for exaggerated or nonexistent injuries. Fraudulent claims by employees can also include real injuries that were not work-related or stretching out recovery time so that disability payments continue for longer than is really warranted.10 To keep workers’ compensation rates under control, companies are becoming more aware of fraud and many are contesting claims they believe to be fraudulent (see the Manager’s Notebook, “Make Sure Workers’ Comp Claims Are on the Up-and-Up”). Some states have law enforcement units that focus on helping to combat workers’ compensation fraud, but they operate with limited staff and budget.11 CHAPTER 16 • MANAGING WORKPLACE SAFETY AND HEALTH 513 In another attempt to control and reduce workers’ compensation costs, some employers are using on-site occupational health centers that provide immediate evaluation and treatment of injured workers. These on-site centers offer faster treatment of occupational injuries and can...

...Part A In the first scenario Kayla Christianson is a CMA that has received her education from CAAHEP. Kayla has also received hands-on training performing ECGs during her externship. She has worked for three physicians including Dr. Hsu for six years. Recently Kayla completed an ECG ordered by Dr. Hsu for 76 year old patient, Mrs. Warner. Dr. Hsu telephoned Kayla asking her to interpret Mrs. Warner’s ECG, sign his name, and fax the report to her referring internist. Although Kayla has extensive training performing ECGs it is not within her scope of practice to interpret ECG and sign a medical document on behalf of a physician. However, she is licensed to perform ECG. Without any formal education or license she is unable to interpret an ECG. Performing ECG is much different then interpreting one. Performing an ECG is taking an order from a physician to perform a task. Signing on behalf of a physician would be against AAMA guidelines. A medical assistant is a skilled professional and a valuable asset to a physician. They are an integral part of the healthcare team assisting in patient care management. They perform several functions including communications between physicians. Dr. Hsu asking Kayla to fax the report to Mrs. Warner’s referring internist would fall under her scope of...

...For this assignment, I interviewed Kayla Chambers, a case worker at Department of Human Services (DHS) in Tulsa. Kayla received her Masters in Social Work from the University of Oklahoma, and has since worked in case management. When asked why she chose to go into the field of social work, Kayla stated that she didn’t chose social work, but rather social work chose her. She stated that this typically happens for most people, they don’t simply decide to go into social work on a whim, it’s normally due to a personal inspiration that leads to passion for the career field. Specifically, Kayla said that social work was never in her sights for a career. She had originally intended to go into occupational therapy, and applied for the program twice, but wasn’t accepted.

My girlfriend Kayla is one of the most amazing people I have ever known in my lifetime. For the short period of time that we've known each other,we've been through quite a lot together. Kayla and I are basically like siblings in a way. We met our first day of junior year in high-school. If I can remember correctly, we were both to some extent terrified about the coming year. I was relieved to know that she had a locker close to mine. I had a feeling that she didn't know that many people in our school, and I remember her casually mentioning that she didn't know anyone in our class. I told her everything would...

...In an E:60 feature presentation called “Catching Kalya”, Tom Rinaldi (2014) expressed what it took for Kayla Montgomery to get the feeling back in her legs after being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) on October 2010. He stated the following: “For eight agonizing months Kayla lacked all filling in her legs. With the help of medication, slowly, the feeling began to return”. After being treated with the appropriate medication, Kayla picked up running. She felt that she would run as much as she could as long as her MS would allow her to do so. Kayla is now considered “one of the best young distance runners in the country” (Rinaldi, 2014). She is beating MS. Even though Kayla is one of the best long distance runners in the nation, at the end of every race spectators observe that something is wrong; that her MS is not gone. They observe that at the end of every race she collapses into her coach’s arms because she cannot feel nor control her legs. Although there is no cure for MS, medication plays a key role in controlling its progression, severity, and tolerance level so that those like Kayla can run a little longer. There are three different types of medications used for the treatment...

...For my study on divorce, I interviewed two individuals. Interestingly, these individuals are twin sisters. Kayla and Chelsea are now 18 years old, but experienced a divorce at the age of 14. I thought it would be interesting to interview a pair of twins because they both experienced the same divorce in the same setting. I believed it would show how divorce can impact and affect children differently. Also, the twins have been my close friends since we were around 13, so I was also present during the divorce they experienced. I was able to see a different side of the girls who I have been best friends with for a long time. They both let me in to see different aspects of their lives that I was not able to see at the time of the divorce. I interviewed both girls alone and at different times. I asked them both not to disclose what kind of information the other shared while being interviewed to prevent them being swayed in a certain direction for an answer....
