Each response is to be 100-150 words.My role in the industry is as an administrator, so when dealing with the changes and trends it will be important for me to stay ahead on current trends and changes. For example, I need to be prepared for Medicare and Medicaid cuts way before they go through. To make adjustments to these changes as they pass is too late. For the changing trends in populations served in nursing homes, I need to be aware of the next generations needs as the baby boomers enter my nursing home. How can I best meet their needs? What foods and activities do they need to be satisfied? What I bring to the industry are new eyes- I am not an administrator who has delt with the current population for all of my career. I am someone who is aware of the changing needs and I am familiar with the needs of the baby boomer population because these aremy parents and all of their friends. I come from a generation that grew up with technology and I understand its importance in health care. I also come from a generation that is willing to voice opinions and this will help me to be an advocate against Medicare and Medicaid cuts. I plan to be very active through advocacy.The biggest role I believe I can play and what I can bring to this industry, regardless of whether I'm the administrator of a medical office or continue clinical trial work, is as a healthcare advocate. It is hard enough for health care professionals who understand the industry to keep up with it, let alone the patients who are barely able to understand the parts of the medical world that touch their lives. Working in clinical trials, I have always strived to ensure my clinical trial subjects fully understand what they are getting into - not because clinical trials are sneaky or highly dangerous, as many people who are untrained and misinformed about this field would believe, but because that is the definition of informed consent; knowing the good and the bad before agreeing to proceed. I believe that this field ofmine has been best in preparing me for being a health care advocate. This is because although there are great health care professionals out there who undoubtedly educate and advocate for their patients, clinical trials is a far more stringent field of the medical world andtherefore, health care education and advocacy is not just something helpful we do - it is a mandatory part of being a clinical trial
