I have to decide which organization to start my clinical in, through Exercise Prescription and Leadership with Dr. Cyr.
I have two choices that will most benefit me in my desired career path: (1) EMMC [Eastern Maine Medical Center] and (2) Bangor Chambers of Commerce.
Both of the above have employee based fitness programs. These programs are designed to promote healthy habits and general well-being toward the employees. With a strongly suggested and incorporated fitness program in each organization, will ultimately create healthier employees, resulting in greater work output, overall satisfaction at work, and lower medical costs.
I'm leaning towards doing my clinical experience at EMMC. This is a very large facility, and I have a strong feeling that the employee fitness program will be integrated well, and highly utilized due to the nature of the facility. While most of the employees are in the health related field (MDs, CNs, PTs, ect) they already have a well rounded education about the human body and how important their health is to them.

Your blog is already pretty thorough. I can tell by the content of your blog that you have put alot of time into your major and learning as much as you can. You have a very informative site. I like how you have several different options to learn about KPE; Fitness, Exercise, and Health options. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteEMMC is a great place to do your internship. I completed a short internship about a year ago there and found the employees very helpful. Not only does the hospital have better facilities but because of their knowledge about health in general they are more receptive about leading a healthier lifestyle. If you could get in there I would recommend it.
