Staying Healthy As A Healthcare Administrator

By Franklin Skribbit


It seems that the debate about technology has been going on for a while. Some people think it is bad, while some people think it is good. Still others think it has elements of both good and bad. So what are we talking about when we say "technology"?

The word "technology" in this context will be used to describe all kinds of modern technology: laptops, smartphones, iPads, iPods, etc. These kinds of technology have been invented fairly recently. People who believe that these new kinds of technology are good claim that smartphones and iPads help make our lives more efficient. We can look up facts instantly on the Internet because we always have the Internet with us.

Such things as the complex human anatomy, symptoms correlating to conditions or illnesses, and the use of medications for specific reasons all come instantly to mind when one thinks of the material that a nursing student will have to learn. And with these specific items that must be learned by those seeking a nursing degree comes the need for memorization to play a critical role in the learning process of nursing students.

People believe having so much information at our fingertips is good. They see people as more informed and more educated. With a smartphone, you can look up what Britney Spears just tweeted, and then click over to the score of your favorite basketball team, and then go over to checking the weather in a nearby city. It is all so easy and quite convenient.

Whether you need to yell into your pillow, go for a long run, or even meditate you want to make sure that you have time for you every day. Set aside a specific amount of time that will allow you to give yourself your release and deal with your emotions in a healthy manner.

This negative self-labeling as a forgetful person is one of the main reasons that a person will forget various things, including important school information. By simply refusing to label oneself as a forgetful person and by striving to think positively about the capabilities of their minds, a person will soon see that they can remember much more than they thought they previously could.

They believe that technology is good when it is used correctly and properly, and it is bad when used incorrectly and improperly.

If you're using your smartphone to look up a score really fast and then you put it away, that is fine. But if you're at a dinner with family and friends and you're on your phone the whole time, then that is a problem.

Learning the material means studying present materials and consistently reviewing past information. By putting in the work to learn the material, and by feeling that they have the capability to learn and memorize important information, nursing students will find that they can indeed memorize, learn, and retain the individual aspects of their nursing education.

Technology can also be helpful to students who are working towards earning a graphic arts degree. A person who wants a graphic arts degree definitely has to use all kinds of modern technology in order to become skilled in the field of graphic design.

Doing what you can to keep yourself healthy while working in a high stress environment may require some effort. Invest time and effort in your mental, physical, and emotional health and you will be a much better employee, coworker, boss and even friend because of it.
