...government entities and the public about the history, role, educational preparation, laws governing practice, standards of practice, evidence base of the profession, payment for physical therapy services, and workforce issues unique to the physical therapy profession. As government, private health care entities, and provider groups pursue solutions to the considerable health care provision challenges the United States faces, it is imperative that accurate information about the qualifications and roles of specific providers, in this case physical therapists, be available to inform all entities as they engage in these discussions. APTA is the national professional association representing more than 77,000 physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, and students nationwide.

...her peers, she is also a drug addict. She lies, she cheats, she steals, and she uses her career to obtain the drugs for her nasty habit. It is a good show that depicts a strong and smart nurse, but it is not an accurate portrayal of what nurses do on a daily basis. Media portrayals of nurses can very well endanger the public health. Nurse Jackie shows a disservice to the career field rather than help the public understand the challenging career. The popular television show Nurse Jackie is not an accurate depiction of a nurse’s job. The show portrays nurses as drug addicts, unskillful workers who only run errands for doctors, and revengeful people with no ethical code....

...RESUMES WHAT IS A RESUME? A resume is a custom designed, written summary of your background. It provides a thumbnail sketch of your education, experience, and qualifications to a prospective employer. An effective resume targets a specific type of position and relates your skills and experience to that position. WHO WRITES A RESUME? A resume is written by anyone seeking employment, both part-time and full-time. Although there are companies that provide resume-writing services, the most effective resumes are written by the job seeker--after all, who else knows you, your qualifications, and your experiences better--someone you just met, or you? WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A RESUME? A good resume (in combination with a cover letter) will provide you with an interview. The employer will select applicants on the basis of how well their skills match up with the job requirements. Sometimes, the difference between getting an interview and being placed in the “no” pile is a well put-together resume. GENERAL RESUME GUIDELINES: Length: • A one-page resume works for the recent graduate. If you have extensive work history, two pages are reasonable. Remember to limit pertinent to what is important to the current job objective. Appearance: • Developing a well organized, readable layout determines if it gets read! Direct the reader’s eyes to the format. • Avoid dense text appearance, which is difficult to read. • Use high-quality white or off-white paper--stay conservative...

...affect not only the organization but the stakeholders as well. There are types of education, training, and/or policies that help the hospital to mitigate risks within the organization. Through the risks that organizations take, the purpose of the risk management team shines through to prove that these organizations can compete with others and rise above other organizations. The main purpose of risk management in the health care organizations are described in Chapter 1 of the Risk Management Handbook stating, “… health care risk management has moved from a discipline focused almost exclusively on medical professional liability issues to a profession concerned with all risks associate with accidental losses facing a health care organization,” (Carroll, 2009). This statement shows the health care organizations not only are trying to protect their company as a whole, but everyone and everything involved. In the hospital setting, “providers have come to realize effective risk management and have developed formalized programs, this risk management has been moving towards the concept of enterprise risk management and considering the myriad of complex legal, regulatory, political business and financial risks,” (Carroll, 2009) that they are facing. The purpose of risk management in the hospital setting is not only to protect the organization and its...

My thesis statement is, the work environment offered at Olmsted Medical Center have motivated and collaborated group cohesions among employees to make these companies successful. The rankings of the top 100 workplaces are based on survey information WorkplaceDynamics, an independent company specializing in employee engagement and retention, collected. The list WorkplaceDynamics compiled is based on an employee feedback survey project, which contains twenty-two questions and five custom questions to assess employee opinions about company leadership, communication, career opportunities, workplace environment, managerial skills, pay and benefits satisfaction, job security, organizational justice, and the importance of various work elements. The surveys are designed to measure the three critical elements of the workplace: the company’s organizational health and fundamentals of the company (values, execution, leadership, and culture); the employees’ work environment of the day-to-day jobs (managers, pay, training, work/life balance); and the employees engagement with the organization overall (motivation, wanting to stay, want to recommend).
