If you’re not getting past the interview, what you’re not doing and saying on the interview is the reason you can’t find a job.

When will my dreams become my reality? When will I achieve the success that I know I am deserving of? What more do I need to do? The answer is inside.

Shadette Brittingham, Division Surgery Specialty Manager at Beebe Medical Group

As I have transitioned from direct patient care as a Medical Assistant into a role of management, I intend to focus on training and development as well as mentor ship. My skills strongly suggest a role in care coordination as the industry shifts more towards the patient centered medical home environment.

CREATOR, MEDICAL ASSISTING STUDENT REVERSE ROLE EMPLOYMENT METHOD

AS A STUDENT YOUR POINT OF VIEW OF HOW TO GET HIRED IS BASED ON WHAT YOU’VE BEEN TOLD… AND WHAT YOU HEAR TURNS INTO YOUR BELIEFS, YOUR TRUTH.

THE CHALLENGE IS, SOMETIMES HOW YOU SHOULD CREATE IT IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD.

IF THAT’S THE CASE, CLEARLY WHAT YOU’ BELIEVE ISN’T GOING TO HELP YOU GET TO WHERE YOU WANT TO GO AND BECOME.

YOU NEED NEW INSIGHT, NEW IDEAS. A NEW PERSPECTIVE.

THE MEDICAL ASSISTING STUDENT REVERSE ROLE EMPLOYMENT METHOD GIVE'S YOU JUST THAT, A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT UNPRECEDENTED METHOD OF HOW TO CREATE EMPLOYMENT BEFORE GRADUATING.

Perception

A way of regarding, understanding, or interpreting something, it's a mental impression. ... Putting oneself in other's perspective changes the perception of life.

It is the perception of our reality that governs the perspective towards our life.

Integrative medicine, which focuses on caring for the whole human being—body, mind, spirit, not just flesh, bones, and organs!

What does the Mind have to do with it?

Mind Body Connection

Neuroscience, Immunology,  Genetics, Molecular Biology, Psychiatry, Behavioral Medicine,  Psychology and Quantum Physics proves in the latest Research and articles there is a powerful connection between your mind, body, emotions, beliefs and energy fields. Together, they create an unbelievable super highway of inter-connected information and energetic networks.

The science behind all this is fascinating, and the conclusions are staggering. It turns out that biochemical reactions to mental and emotional stimuli – your everyday thoughts and feelings – occur not just in the brain but also, often simultaneously, in virtually every system of your body. Read more

Pioneering scientists like Dr Candace Pert, Dr Bruce Lipton and Dr David Hamilton just to name a few have helped to revolutionize our understanding of the link between our minds, bodies and energy systems.

Unfortunately Information about these discoveries goes mostly under-reported. Articles on related topics appear regularly in scientific journals, and even in popular magazines such as Smithsonian, Scientific American (Such as this).

The neurological and biochemical concepts are explained in extreme scientific detail. But the concepts aren’t easily simplified, and are rarely published in the general media. Nor do they have much viability in the curriculum of most medical schools. Thus, most conventional doctors are largely unaware (or if they are aware, do not prescribe to the legitimacy of the subject) of the vast implications such insights might have for our health and life choices.

If it can't be measured, science won't concede it exists, which is why science refuses to deal with emotions, the mind, the soul, or the spirit. Read more

I was asked a question: If you could change one thing about healthcare, what would it be?

I would change how patients are treated. I feel that health care has become a one size fits all model, a factory. I would change the perception of how we heal patients. That's just one of many things I would change.

WORKPLACE CONFLICT

Adversely Affects The Medical Assistant Professional and Personal Life

The Personal Diary of a Professional Patient: Understanding the Daily Struggles of the Patient

As patients, I think we all, when given the opportunity, want to get better. You lose your purpose in life when you lose your ability to function. You lose your sense of self. We have to be given permission and encouraged to change the dynamic and play an active role in our healthcare decisions by those that are involved in our care.
