  • QUIZ - I have just finished grading the quizzes :( - Ouch! Some are not so good.  You will have an opportunity for test corrections, but it is looking as though some of you are not checking the blog. You MUST be checking it! (But I guess if you are reading this, you already are! LOL! So please pass the word to your classmates to pick up the MT vocab!
  • Timesheets are once again due! Make sure to completely fill out.  If you forget to total or tally the daily hours column in the correct place I will take 5 points off!

Happy Friday Everyone




REMINDERS

  • Happy Birthday to Alyssa in AM - We will have your card for you on Wednesday!


KAISER

LOG OUT How To's

DAILY BLOG THOUGHT

Have you ever had to work with someone (either partnered in the classroom) or at a job site that just was difficult to work with?

How did you handle it?  What tools did you use to cope with a difficult co-worker or partner?
We will discuss this further on Wednesday.


HOMEWORK
Please make sure you have made an appointment with your supervisor to set up a time to go over your goals for the month of December. Remember this is something both you and your supervisor should discuss and agree on.  It is IMPORTANT to communicate what you want to learn to your immediate supervisor.  For example, say I really want to learn how to properly chart or sterilize equipment, let your supervisor know.  It may not happen this month but hopefully you can work up to it.  The month of December is all about your site supervisor learning to trust you and feel comfortable with you!
GOAL SHEET - TYPED UP - COPY DUE TO BUCKLEY -  DECEMBER 10TH!
Please refer to Wednesdays blog for specifics and links

Happy Thursday

Hope you are all having a great day.  Just one quick announcement -

ALL STUDENTS - NO SCHOOL FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21ST! Happy Gobble Gobble!


ALL VALLEYCARE STUDENTS - READ THIS - IT IS IMPORTANT! (I might even print this out!) ()(
The ROP students should all receive this Surface Disinfectant Wipes Matrix and know how many minutes each surface should be wet (on the wipe container). Also, they should wear gloves and goggles when they clean surfaces.
 
If they clean thermometers, they should use gloves, goggles and orange top wipes.
 
The infection control practitioner is out and about and reports when she sees any breaches in the protocol (for example on our SNF), so I want to be sure the ROP students are always seen doing the right thing. 
 
The offices should be doing the same thing the hospital does, but I can't guarantee it. If an office does not use the wipes, please have the students follow the practice they use.



ARE YOU WORKING AT YOUR SITE OVER THANKSGIVING BREAK?
