I got to spend this week with my internship director, Kristi! Throughout the busy week we talked about payroll, budget, scheduling, and CQI studies. We attended the weekly manager meeting, the monthly department manager meeting, and the weekly RD meeting. I did an in-service for the supervisors and data entry operators about the bariatric diet name change. We ordered test trays to check temperature, taste, and portion sizes of the diets we ordered for. During the week I worked on various assignments. My favorite one was the Food and Nutrition Services Department Newsletter. I got to be creative and have fun by interviewing employees and managers in the department. Friday afternoon Kristi and I gave a student interested in the internship a tour of the hospital. It was fun answering some of the same questions that I had when I was in her shoes.
Friday night I had to pack for my 5:45 a.m. flight to see Dan in South Carolina!!! The first thing in my suitcase was the GI/Medical Surgery binder...I start clinical rotations the week after Thanksgiving...YIKES...wish me luck! I'm very excited and nervous about the mass amount of learning that is about to happen!
