10. Women’s Walk for WellnessAlong with these services, there are many more that are offered by Joint Township District memorial Hospital. As far as funding goes, JTDMH has all private insurance and government funded Medicare and Medicaid.<br />Comparison & Summary Impressions:<br /> After looking over the two interviews, it was quite obvious that Betty and Marcie’s jobs had a few similarities, but multiple differences. As far as the similarities go, they both have the joy of working with patients/clients of various ages that range from toddlers to the elderly. Both Betty and Marcie have also given clinical supervision to speech-language pathology students. Each of them have a great passion for their work as well, and they both feel privileged to get to make a difference in people’s lives. To look at the differences in their practice settings, the most obvious one is that Betty works at a university and Marcie works in a hospital. Although Betty does interact with clients, her main job is acting as a professor teaching students. Marcie’s job at the hospital requires her to interact with patients every day. Both Betty and Marcie’s jobs involve paperwork, but it is quite different. Betty’s paperwork consists of preparing PowerPoint’s for note-taking guides, preparing tests, and grading tests, while Marcie’s paperwork involves evaluations and completing documentation for Medicare and/or Insurance standards for all patients. <br /> It was also concluded that Marcie’s job had more of a hands on experience than Betty’s did. Although Betty had experience with students every day, Marcie’s job at the hospital gave her hands on experience with actual clients and/or patients. But no matter how different their jobs are, they both gave the impression that they are very passionate about their job. Also, though they are both in the field of speech-language pathology and have such different job settings, this just tells observers that they both love to make a difference in people’s lives, but they each do it in their own way. <br /> Once the entire interviewing process was completed and I had looked over them in their entirety, I had learned quite a bit. The main thing that I learned was that in order to decide what type of speech-language pathology, I had to figure out what I was most interested in. Did I want to teach, or did I want to have a more hands on experience and have the opportunity to work with patients and clients every day? If I had to choose right now, I would more than likely choose to work in the hospital, because I feel that working in a hospital and having the chance to work with people every day would fulfill my dream to make a difference in people’s lives more than teaching others. Another thing that wasn’t covered in this project was working in a school system, which would mean working strictly with children. In all honesty, I think I would enjoy by work most if I had the chance to work with children every day of my life. But for this project, the information that I have obtained helped me in narrowing down what I wanted to do for my career.<br />
