Today consisted completely of public speaking. Us six foodservice interns presented our literature reviews! Mine went very well, and took about 20-ish minutes, so I'm just glad it's over. All attendees (supervisors, preceptors, directors) seemed very receptive to my motivation/recognition presentation. Basically some of the ideas that I found during research or came up with myself were...

• "Strive for Five" from Aramark
• "Dollars for Scholars" from The Village at Manor Park Nursing Home in WI
• "Kudos Letters" from Sarasota County School Board
• Extra vacation time for perfect attendance at the WV University Hospital  
• "Staff Yearbook" by me! 
• "Double-Take" recognition program, by me!

 And basically just did my literature review on a study that focused that did a survey to look at what motivates employees, especially in a health care setting. It was a great experience to look further into how a study can impact a presentation, and definitely will prepare me for the clinical literature review I have to do when I'm in that big rotation. 

I'm pretty sure that the rest of this week is going to fly by. Tomorrow and Thursday we'll be doing Fire Safety/Evacuation in-services, Wednesday is more patient satisfaction interviews, or "Meal Rounds," then Friday is the wrap-up session already. Then, it will be off to CMU for Central/Western weekend. So, probably won't be much this week, but just everything coming together!
