The Professional Portfolio - Show Your Skills !

Hi Everyone, PORTFOLIOS DUE MAY 6th !

The few portfolios I have seen so far look fabulous. So far, I've seen one from Emily, Monica and Rachel in the morning class. Looks like you three did really well - your portfolios look great.

AM CLASS: Please bring in your portfolio tomorrow so I can see your progress, and maybe
even sign you off before May 6th! See you tomorrow, Thurs. 4/30 at 10:50

PM CLASS: Please bring your portfolios in on Friday, May 1st. I am anxious to see them.
See you Friday, May 1st at 1:05

HERE ARE THE WEBSITES FOR CREATING AN E-PORTFOLIO (optional)

Regarding your SS#:

Amanda and Kaylee both made a good point today....If asked for your SS# or money to process an application for employment or scholarships, check it out with a parent first just to be sure. There are a lot of scams out there that lead to identity theft. When you get that "red flag" feeling...trust it.

Take care,

You are all STARS

Hello Students,

Yes, you are all STARS in my mind. I appreciate all of you and wish you well through STAR testing week. Please review your school website for the schedule.

I'll see GHS folks on Wednesday, (no P2 tomorrow 4/28).

Everyone - Keep working on those portfolios....I am anxious to see how great they look! Reminder, once I have signed off on your portfolio, you may take it home.

Take care and have a nice evening,

~Mrs. Erceg

Please think about something for me......

First of all..... you all have a wonderful, bright future ahead. I think every single one of you has great potential. How you decide to reach that potential is critical to your success. Using critical thinking skills and strategies to create better relationships is a hallmark of impending maturity.

Next week, I challenge everyone to try very hard to demonstrate behaviors consistent with a professional environment. When respectful behavior is demonstrated, you can expect it to be reciprocated.

For some of you, cooperation and mature behaviors come naturally - for others, not so much. For some, it takes time to realize who the people are that care about you and want the best for you.............................Please count me in.

~Mrs. Erceg

Thank You

Guest Speaker Tomorrow from CCBMA

Hello There,

Kate Logan from the California Certifying Board for Medical Assistants will be here tomorrow, 4/22.

FHS Students: FHS has a strange schedule..call me and I'll go over it with you. Please arrive late if necessary so you can be part of this event. The other option is to come for the 9:00 a.m. presentation instead tomorrow.

Take care and I'll see you tomorrow.

Welcome Back!

Hello All,

I hope you had a great week off.

This week, we're learning about seeing the patient, not just the chart or a medical record number. We all want to be treated with kindness and respect, so now we learn about bringing that into the workplace by treating all patients and clients well.

We will do some medical terminology, create a mission statement for Med Occs and start reviewing medical billing again.

Guest Speaker Wednesday: California Certifying Board for Medical Assistants

Take Care...

Happy Thursday to You !

Hello Everyone,

We're gearing up for the CMAA Seminar on Saturday. There will be a meeting on May 9th too...I hope you can make it to that one.

Please bring in a question to the next class period that pertains to legal issues in medicine. Just google it. There's 20 points of E.C. in it for you if you share it with the class. Have the answer to the question too!

Take care,

~Mrs. Erceg

There once was a Heart named Bart....

Hi Folks,

I hope you had fun with the writing exercise today. Some of you know you're a poet, and didn't even know it.

If you have not already, please turn in your hours accrued sheet, signed by a parent at the next class meeting.

Also, for those attending on Saturday, please wear your uniform shirt and pants, or interview attire.

I need gently used and new jewelry for the fundraiser....can anyone help ????? Please ask Mom!

Thanks very much.
