What is an appendix?
Hi Folks,
Why do we have an appendix? Do you know? Is there any information out there that you can bring in and share tomorrow? If you do, there's a reward for you. Write it down or type it on a piece of paper. Hand it in to me and I will date stamp it immediately.
Tomorrow, we'll talk more about the digestive system. What is flatulence? What is borborygumus? If you can answer either one of these tomorrow, I will be very proud. We'll have a "gas" tomorrow.
Do you have a DVR or TIVO? Program some documentary type shows about health education or medicine. Maybe you'll find some good shows to watch and keep you informed. There's one I found..."Discovery Health" and "Dr. Know". There is also..."Dr. G - Medical Examiner".
Remember to bring in your immunization records!!! DUE 9/19 !!!! Talk to your parents and your doctor's office.
Back to School Night tomorrow !!!! Parents: Bring your questions - see you tomorrow.
Have a great evening!

It's Good to Be Back
Hello Students,
The classroom phone is taking messages now, but continue to use my cell phone # through tomorrow just in case! (510) 305-5111 - make sure it's programmed into your cell phone.
Thanks to all of you that participated (and may still participate) in the Good News Bears program. Our countertop is filling up and feel free to bring in more. Some of you asked friends to help... and they did!
Please get started on the MT Project #1. It's an easy one...due Friday 9/12.
PLEASE ask your "Back to School Night" representative (parent or relative) to be here on Wednesday night at 6:30 for Period 1 and 6:50 for Period 2. For my afternoon class, ask parents to arrive at 7:30. Room 108 - Granada High School.
We have a speaker set up for the CMAA meeting on Saturday, 9/13. Invited friends and family too. They are welcome to come. Please bring about $10.00 if you can so you can order a light lunch. It will be at the "On the Border" restaurant in Dublin (Hacienda Crossings) at 10:00 a.m. to about 11:30 am. We will have an education session, you'll earn certificates and see us honor a newly certified Medical Assistant!
Wasn't it nice to hear the R.N. speak today? She's only a few years older than you and look what she has accomplished. Remember, she's available for questions in the future.
Remember immunization records! I need those by 9/19. Talk to your parents about it.
Share this tonight: HEPATOSPLENOMEGALY - Share what you learned today!

Happy Friday
Dear Students,
I hope the last two days went well and you liked the substitute. I'm sure you did a great job on the assignment. The California Medical Assistants Association (CMAA) conference is going very well. Good speakers today and we had an open forum discussing matters regarding the organization. I wish you could have been here. There were a lot of students from the local community college's Medical Assisting Program. They were helpful in getting us through the day. The conference ends on Sunday. More educational speakers tomorrow and Sunday.
There are lots of new animals in the classroom.....grrrrrreat!
Next week, we start the digestive system. Nutrition is so important to your mood and overall health.
I'm looking forward to seeing you Monday!

I'll Miss You All!
Hi Everyone...
I'm so proud of the way you handled yourselves today. It's obvious you are interested in taking good care of patients one day. You were very attentive during lecture and discussions. Good questions today about the urinary tract system. Keep them coming!
Talk to parents and relatives.....I want to have a record number of folks here for "Back to School Night" on Wednesday, Sept. 10th. Thank you in advance for communicating to parents how important that evening will be to you, me and your future community classroom sites.
Tomorrow and Friday I will be at a medical conference for CMAA (cmaa-ca.org). The sub will need your help and cooperation and I know I can trust all of you on that. The instructions are on the board for the 8-week plan and an extra assigment by the sign in sheets. Please leave sign in sheets for me. If any questions come up you need help with, ask Ms. Mancuso next door or call my cell phone. The number is (510) 305-5111. I'll be checking for messages.
A lot of stuffed animals came today!!! Yippeeee! Please bring one or more in as soon as you can. Jeannie from Good News Bears will be here tomorrow to speak to the afternoon class.
The 8-week plan video/assignment is scheduled for tomorrow and Friday. Check out Dr. Weil's website tonight. This will help you quite a bit. www.drweil.com
Keep checking the blog. I'll do my best to blog you while I'm away!
Take care and have a great couple of days. See you Monday.

Time for Anatomy
Hi Folks,
This week begins our journey into anatomy, medical terminology and pathology. Keep those binders very neat with tabs for ESLR's and a combination tab for the three subjects above.
Please bring in your stuffed animals! Kids (and adults) really need them.
Back to School night is September 10th here at GHS. LHS has theirs too, so LHS parents....I need your help on this. I would like to know if a parent or relative can be here on that night at GHS to learn more about medical occupations.
We are looking at careers in medicine this week and medical specialities. Have your heard of any that are unfamiliar? We will continue to investigate. Here's a site: www.bls.gov
We had some tardies today and one absence with no call in advance. Please be very careful to not let this happen. It has already affected a few students, but no fear! Just make sure a call comes in to me before the beginning of class time!
Keep those immunization/vaccination records coming. We need to collect those as soon as possible.
Have a great evening and thanks for another great day. I hope you had fun
