Upcoming Events: Lake County POC H1N1 Clinic:
As you may have seen
from emails sent by
Dorine, the Lake Country Emergency Preparedness Office
is looking for volunteers for the H1N1 Clinic
Wednesday, November 18th. The clinic will be
open from 1 - 8 p.m. Volunteers will be needed
throughout that time for Greeting and Screening, Forms
Distribution, Patient Education & Forms Completion,
Forms Review, and Security and Exit Education. Dorine
talked to Don Thompson who works for Lake County
Emergency Preparedness Office and he thought that our
training in health information management would make us
excellent volunteers for the clinic. This a very
unique event which would be an excellent opportunity
for you to apply your HIM knowledge and it would look
great on your resume!!
The HIM Club is going to
sponsor this event as an HIM Program activity. We would
like to get a group of students together to volunteer at
the clinic. As an added bonus, any students who
volunteer to help at the event will get free
HIM Club membership paid for the fall 2009 semester!!
If you are interested in signing up
to volunteer, please RSVP back to
keppens@pluto.dsu.edu by no later than
Sunday, November 15th. When you RSVP,
please indicate what time you
will be available to help out (example 5-7 p.m.) and the
best way for you to be contacted by the clinic
officials. Volunteers are needed through the time the
clinic is open, so volunteer when it works for your
schedule. Sarah will be
calling in the list of students volunteers so they know
how many students are planning to volunteer at the
clinic. Please contact Sarah as soon
as possible if you are interested in volunteering.
Study Nights:
Have you ever wanted help with homework for an
HIM class, but wasn't sure where to turn to?? Now you have a
resource available to you to get help with the coursework in your
HIM classes. The HIM program has organized weekly tutor/study
sessions for you to utilize to get help with HIM classes.
Students taking the beginning classes can get help from upper-level
students who have already taken the classes. These sessions will
also be a great way for students to work on homework and study for
tests with other HIM students taking same classes. Students are also
encouraged to come even if they just want a quiet place to study.
These sessions are geared towards HIM classes, but you are welcome
to bring homework to work on for other classes. Come get help from
upper-level students, work with other students from your HIM
classes, or just to have a quiet place to study.
The first tutor/session will be next
Monday, October 5th from 7-9 p.m. Campus students we will
be meeting every Monday from 7-9 p.m. in library room 201
(at the top of the staircase). This resource is intended for all HIM
program students to use as a resource. Distance students we are
working on a way for you to interact with campus students via chat,
discussion board, or something along those lines. Until something
can be worked out, any questions or comments can be sent to
keppens@pluto.dsu.edu or posted on the discussion board on the
HIM program D2L site.
Be on the lookout for information about other upcoming events for the 2009-2010 school year.
