People who possess those skills are more productive, and set goals to accomplish them. They are good communicators who inspire/motivate others to achieve their goals which is very important to achieving success. ]]> 2022-11-04 16:14:39 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2370351536 Stress- Raina Satrom https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2370355411 Stress can be good or bad.

*Recruit staff
*Engage the public - advertising/specific events
*Speak generally about health conditions
*Share information (ex. flu shots, RSV hospitalizations, covid hospitalizations)
*Check potential hires social media before hiring

What it can't be used for:
*Identifying patient information, such as name, condition, and place of residence - breach of any patient information
*Unprofessional conduct - words, images, etc. against a facility (place of employment) or a person within the facility

What can happen:
*You could get a hefty fine, be fired, and/or end up in jail. 

What can you do?
*Don't take pictures (things can be in the background)
*Carefully consider posting anything work-related 
*Don't keep your phone on you while at work
*Be aware of your facility's policies.]]> 2022-11-04 20:44:46 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2370646439 Good Health Standards for Health Care Workers- Kate Bradner https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2371230209 1) Diet- they need to focus on having a healthy diet.
2) Rest- they need to get adequate rest.
3) Exercise- they should have an exercise routine to stay in shape.
4) Good Posture- they should use good posture at all times. 
5) Avoid Risky behaviors- they should not do things like smoking. 

They should all make the decisions they are telling their patients to make so they are not being hypocritical. ]]> 2022-11-05 18:13:50 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2371230209 Inappropriate Uses of Social Media in Health Care- Carissa Mueller https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2371879428 There are a few examples of inappropriate uses of social media. Some people don't realize it but they take pictures or videos without thinking it. Healthcare employees also might want to share crazy stories about their day but that isn't very appropriate for where you work. Another thing is complaining and negative comments. You should never rant about someone online. 

A few more examples of inappropriate examples are offensive statements. discussing private health information without consent is also not okay. Becoming best friends with your patient can make it unfair for other patients. ]]> 2022-11-06 18:02:44 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2371879428 Goals - Sophia Johnson https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2371939008 A goal can be defined as a desired result or purpose toward which one is working. They are commonly compared to maps because they help you find your way through the world. Goals allow you to know where your going and guide you through decisions.

If a person in high school has a long-term goal, such as, graduating college with a health care degree they might want to look at some short-term goals as well. Some goals they might have could be; research and learn about the wide variety of health care careers, job-shadow health care professionals that seem most interesting, join a student organization for health science education (HSE) students to network with other people who have similar interests, or attend job fairs or career planning days to obtain info about specific health care professionals. 

Short-term goals can constantly change as one set is completed and a new set is established. After goals are established you should concentrate on ways to get that goal. Plan ways to get there and have people that can help you along your journey.]]> 2022-11-06 19:23:43 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2371939008 Difference between good and bad stress - Kayla Knudsvig https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2372022137 Stress can be both good and bad to a persons mental and physical health. 

Good stress can be short-term and will inspire or motivate someone to reach a goal that they have. 

Bad stress could be long term and lead to mental and physical health conditions such as depression, anxiety, and fatigue. ]]> 2022-11-06 21:32:38 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2372022137 Raegen Zerface - First Impressions - what makes/breaks a first impression https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2372036899 First Impression
- a first encounter with another person where a mental image is formed
Why is this important?
- Primary effect
when someone experiences something before a number of other things, the person usually remembers the first thing  before all else
- Halo effect
good impression might overcome bad attributes

A FIRST IMPRESSION IS USUALLY FORMED WITHIN 7 SECONDS OF MEETING SOMEONE NEW!!
This impression is made BEFORE YOU EVEN SAY A WORD!!!

Nonverbal
- 55% of a first impression is formed by what we see
- 38% the way we hear words
- 7% actual words spoken
93% has nothing to do with what we say!

Some things that contribute to the nonverbal aspect of a first impression:
- body language
- eye contact
- posture
- how you hold your arms
- movement
- touch
- personal space
- appearance

What does a good first impression consist of?
1. Eye contact - not too much if you just met
2. Smile / Appear interested
3. Pay attention to how you are standing:
- posture
- arms
- personal body space
- extra movement
4. Touch
5. Handshake
6. Gestures
7. Appearance - unique differences
8. Pleasant smell or no smell

Another way to help ensure a good first impression is - an Elevator Speech.
What is an elevator speech you may be asking?
An Elevator Speech consists of:
- a brief summary about yourself to give to someone you meet that could potentially be an important part of your life
- it is usually around 30 seconds to 2 minutes long
- try to think about a job interview, college recruiter or college sports recruiter, scholarship application, community member, or a significant other's family member

Can you overcome a BAD first impression?
YES!!
You may be asking how, here are some tips:
- make sure the next encounter goes better!
- might take up to 8 additional positive encounters to fix that negative first impression
- admit your mistakes
- apologize if needed
- correct what needs to be corrected
- ask for a re-do
- don't let the same mistakes happen again (it's even harder to forget a bad impression twice!)

Some common traits of a good leader include respect towards others, self confidence, clear communication, and being open minded.

There are 3 basic leadership styles: Democratic, Laissez-Faire, and Autocratic. A democratic leader is someone who encourages the participation of others.

An Autocratic leader has a dictator type of leadership and makes most of the decisions. ]]> 2022-11-06 23:28:03 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2372082337 How Social Media is used in Healthcare - Landon Koenig https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2372272806 Social Media can be a really good tool for the healthcare facility to spread the word about special events that may be going on or just to share the new things going on around the facility. It has many uses and functions when used correctly. 
 - Recruit - It can be used to show off the facility and staff to tell people that it is a great place to work.
- Engage - It can help notify the public of events that they are having.
- Speak - Healthcare facilities can send out messages about certain health conditions to spread that awareness and general information about the condition
- Share - This can be a great way to get information out for flu shots and other immunization opportunities
- Check - Can be used to check potential hires on social media before hiring. ]]> 2022-11-07 02:34:20 UTC https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2372272806 Stress - Sophia Conner https://padlet.com/karisatrom/9k9kqa3lckq8brsh1667841254/wish/2372304128  
Stress is the body's reaction to any stimulus that requires a person to adjust to a changing environment. This can either be good or bad. Positive stress is a person getting excited about something or achieving your goals. Negative stress is getting angry, irritated, and becoming depressed. 
Stress can affect many different systems in our bodies such as our nervous system, respiratory system, cardiovascular system, reproductive system, immune system, and the endocrine system. 
Also, you can manage your stress. A way to manage a stress reaction that you may be having is to stop, breathe, reflect, and choose.

Share information
Checking the backgrounds of potential workers
Photo records of injuries

The worse ways:
