Walls https://padlet.com/melissa_urquhart/dj68dv03y9de/wish/248722359 This skill will translate into the medical in many ways. For instance I will be a medical assistant, if a patient has a question about a disease or a symptom, I will be bale to provide an answer. This week I did my assignment on bi polar disorder.

And also by having to create a brochure , it gave me practice on working with different templates within word.  ]]> 2018-04-05 02:02:00 UTC https://padlet.com/melissa_urquhart/dj68dv03y9de/wish/248722359 Indira Hernandez https://padlet.com/melissa_urquhart/dj68dv03y9de/wish/248723708 Creating an educational brochure allows us to educate ourselves on different diseases as well as information and questions that patients ask.

It also allows us to have more knowledge on the disease we choose. ]]> 2018-04-05 02:15:03 UTC https://padlet.com/melissa_urquhart/dj68dv03y9de/wish/248723708 Ngoc Phung https://padlet.com/melissa_urquhart/dj68dv03y9de/wish/248733262
By creating an educational brochure that will translate into a medical office can be shown to us in a variation of ways and that is specifying the important points of symptoms that a patient may have and an important facts about the disease. This skill allow us to explore into Microsoft words template that give us category of brochures to choose from such as education, programs, business, and medical brochures etc. We can choose any of the styles brochure we want and be creative in formatting and designs. The good thing about creating the brochure is we are learning the different formats and designs being added and handing out the brochure to our patients will give them more information and questions about the disease they may have. As an MA, educating my patient about the disease gives me the opportunity to speak professionally and explaining any causes and side effects symptoms my patient may have. That is why having an educational brochure when talking to my patient is very helpful to my career as an MA.
