Student Success Statement

"Obedience is central to becoming. being, and remaining happy."

-David A. Bednar

Reflection: There has to be order and rules in order for people to listen and not get out of control and try to hurt other people. If you listen and follow those rules, that are put there for a reason, you'll find yourself to be a lot more happy. Rules are not meant to be broken. Your parents tell you things so that you stay out of trouble since they know what's best for you, you should listen, instead of trying to disobey them.

Harmful Effects and Consequences of Drug Abuse

Drugs can destroy your family, your friends, and your life. Drugs lie. They're meant to be your 'perfect escape' and to help you forget your problems. You drive me your loved ones over the edge of despair when you do drugs. They trust you and you mislead them. You might get long term, imprisonment due to drugs and will lose the chance to say goodbye to loved ones. All it takes is one pill, or high and you might get hooked for life. You can't blame anyone by yourself.
Don't mess with drugs. They can ruin your life. Not only yours but also the people around you whom you love and love you. You can get hooked after one trip or high and ruin the rest of your life because one night of fun. I promise not to fall under peer pressure and listen to the people around me when it comes to drugs, if they tell me to take them. I will remain drug free and avoid all contact with people who mess with drugs because it isn't worth it.

Student Success Statement

"Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise."

-Benjamin Franklin

Reflection: I agree with what this is stating. If you lack sleep, you're body is going to be exhausted all the time and you're body is going to crash. Not only will it take a toll on your body but also your mind. You're going to be overworking it too much and you're not going to be able to focus or work at your full potential as if you were when you are well rested.

Oriental Medicine Doctor

Duties and Responsibilities:

Most oriental medicine practitioners work in a hospital or private clinic. Most procedures involve the use of calming relaxation techniques, so it is important for a practitioner to make sure the room and environment is relaxing for the patient. Some rooms and procedures may involve candlelight or incense, so it is the practitioner’s job to make sure the environment and atmosphere is just right for the patient.

Some oriental medicine practitioners work in hospitals where the environment can become stressful or tense if patients are dealing with extreme pain or illness. Hospital practitioners will need to be able to maintain a calm disposition with patients even in a stressful or uncomfortable situation. It is their job to relax the patient and help to quickly treat any extreme pain.

Salary: starting at $61,000

Education:

Education and training requirements vary state to state for becoming an oriental medicine practitioner. Some practitioners are licensed to be a physician’s assistant and then take classes to become certified in oriental medicine. Most practitioners earn a Bachelor’s degree in biology or another medical related field, then go on to fill state requirements for practicing oriental medicine. Most states require students to work as an intern or apprentice for a specific number of hours in order to qualify for certification, and then have them take an examination to become certified through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental medicine.
Reflection: I would not like to be an oriental medicine doctor because it doesn't interest me.

Student Success Statement

"Courage is being scared to death and doing the right thing anyway."

-Chae Richardson

Reflection: I believe this statement is saying that regardless of how scared you are, you should still do the right thing. Despite the consequences, doing the right thing is important and if you choose to do that regardless of what may happen, that takes true courage. For example, if you messed up your entire school year and aren't going to graduate, you have to own up to your actions.

Wellness Professional

Duties and Responsibilities:

The main duties of a wellness specialist are to educate the public on how to improve their daily choices, prevent illness or access local resources. The method should be customized to the audience.

Beyond this direct outreach, a wellness specialist may advise employers on the best insurance provider to meet employee needs. When working for the city, a specialist may focus on a larger array of concerns from a local outdoor exercise options to diabetes care facilities in the area.

Education:

A wellness specialist often has a degree in a related discipline such as nursing, fitness or sports medicine.
