Business Credit

Your info/answers are Great! Thank you for a clear idea on how to establish business creditt. I have a general question with respect to office space. when you are establishing your business. Can you lease space from companies that specialize in shared office space. Example-HQ office space. I heard that DNB will pick-up that it is shared office space and killed your paydex score. You will on be considered a real busines. Any idea? Shared office space will not affect your paydex at all. However, it will show up on your report that the address you are using is shared offcie space.. Be honest and truthful about your space if asked... Shared office space beats saying you do business out of a PO box, that's for sure :)

Is Your Nutrition Killing You? Australia's Century of Health

The year 2011 marks 100 years of the national census taking of Australians. There have been some remarkable advances in health shown in the numbers. The average life expectancy for women has grown from 60 years in 1911 to 84 years in 2010. Men have increased their life expectancy from 56 to 79 years. Infant mortality has dropped from 74 in 1000 in 1911 to just 4 in 1000. The leading causes of death in 1911 were:

• Organic Heart Disease (10.2%)
• Senile Debility (8%)
• Cancer (6.9%)
• Tuberculosis (6.6%)
• Congenital debility birth defects (6.5%)

The leading causes of death in 2008 were:

• Ischaemic (reduced blood supply) heart diseases (24%)
• Strokes (12%)
• Dementia and Alzheimer disease (8%)
• Trachea and lung cancer (8%)
• Chronic lower respiratory diseases (6%)
• If we group the top heart related diseases and stroke, they combine to a whopping 42%, and cancers combined increases to 27%!

Many of the changes in life expectancy and causes of death are because of improved sanitation and living standards, reduction in infectious diseases through vaccines and medicines, and health education. Even in 1911 doctors were aware poor diet and nutrition were the main cause of many illnesses and deaths with their patients. Sadly, not much has changed on that front. Our diets are remarkably different from 1911, but our choices are no better - perhaps even worse. We've replaced "meat and three veg" to takeaway burgers and fries, a toxic mix of salt, sugar and fat. We've brought many infectious diseases under control so they and no longer pose a substantial risk to our lives. Lifestyle diseases are now our big challenge - diabetes and obesity are the two biggest risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Medical research has changed its focus from finding treatments and prevention for infectious diseases to finding interventions for our own poor choices. Our sedentary lifestyle and poor diets are forcing doctors to look at ways to manipulate our genes and cellular processes. Because of that research, there's more scientific evidence of how our cells need to work with each other to maintain and recover health, particularly with cancers. We're becoming more aware of the connectedness of our bodies. When one part is unwell its effects can ripple through the entire body - even if it is just one cell that's sick. We're learning more about how to feed our cells to prevent, treat and even reverse diseases. We can wait for medical research to find a cure for poor food choices. But how hard is it really to visit the fruit and vegetable section of your supermarket more, and skip the chips and soft drink aisles? How hard is it really to choose to take the stairs instead of the escalators? How hard is it really to choose to walk five blocks instead of drive? It's simple, little, daily choices like these that lead to a huge difference over a lifetime. Medical research will and should continue. But our lives belong to us - we live them, not the laboratory rats. We can make decisions today to change the course of our lives, whatever the year, be it 1911 or 2011. Sources

So you're wondering, "How long does it take to become an allied health professional?" If you want to figure out the answer to this question you will need to first decide what type of allied health professional you want to become. There are medical assistants, physician assistants, dental assistants, paramedics, medical billing and coding specialists, pharmacy technicians and many other types of allied health care professionals. These professions require less schooling than nurses and medical doctors, but the length of the program can range from six months to two or more years.

Medical assistants work in doctor's offices and hospitals, and the services they provide are indispensable to the modern healthcare environment. These allied health professionals have job duties in the waiting room and front office, as well as more specialized tasks with patients working alongside doctors and nurses. If you choose to become a medical assistant you will learn everything from administrative tasks to hands on patient care. The certification process will take at least one year or longer if you are planning on specializing in a certain area of medicine.
The road to becoming a medical assistant is finding an educational program that has been accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs or Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools. There are vocational and technical schools that offer these programs, as well as community colleges. Most vocational and technical schools take about a year, while most community colleges take about two years. The advantage of the second is the more specialized training that can be very helpful in the job market.
You will need to get hands on training through an internship or similar program, either during the final stages of your training or after you have graduated.

Acupuncture Universities - Getting the Most out of Your Health Education

Add caption

As a prospective student, it is sometimes difficult to determine in which one of the many acupuncture universities or other complementary medicine schools you'd like to enroll. One of the first things you should do is make a list of potential contacts for your Oriental medicine school of choice. The next step is to pursue these contacts and explore your career training options.

As you will discover, many acupuncture institutes and other Oriental medicine colleges typically require some degree of higher education before students can enroll into academic programs. So, it is important that applicants acquire official transcripts from previous educational institutions.

In order to enroll in the MSAOM (Master of Science in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine) degree program at most acupuncture universities and schools, students must have completed an educational equivalent to a Bachelor's degree. As well, students pursuing the DAOM (Doctor of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine) degree soon learn that minimum prerequisites include the equivalent of the MSAOM degree.

Now that you've organized your transcripts, it's time to take a virtual journey to the many available acupuncture universities and colleges online. Because the Internet has improved the prevalence of educational resources, this is a good place to begin. As with any Chinese medicine school, you will learn there are more than just degree programs available to you. A matter of fact, a number of acupuncture and Oriental medicine colleges extend adjunct certificate and/or diploma programs in Chinese medical massage (Tuina), meridian therapy, herbal medicine, continuing education, as well as post-graduate courses.

Once you've chosen your top three school candidates, it's time to determine your financial need and availability of financial aid resources at the educational institution of choice. Much like conventional schools, acupuncture universities frequently participate in tuition assistance programs like the PELL grant, among other loan options.

After you've applied for financial aid, filed your transcripts, and submitted an application to your selected acupuncture school - be prepared for not only course-intensive programs, but for a whole new concept in modern and natural healthcare education. Aside from certificate and diploma courses, students pursuing acupuncture degree programs will be pleasantly surprised at the wealth of comprehensive knowledge and skills they will gain. In addition to basic health sciences like anatomy, physiology, and biology; students enrolled in acupuncture universities gain in-depth philosophies and studies of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), acupuncture therapy (and/or auricular-acupuncture), meridian therapy, moxibustion, cupping, Chinese herbology, Tai Chi/Qi Gong, Eastern bodywork modalities like acupressure, and Chinese medical terminology, among other associated studies.

Upon completion of all necessary academics and clinical internship, graduates of acupuncture programs must take and pass the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine exam. Once candidates have successfully achieved certification, they may then apply for licensure* to practice in their respective State of residence. (*Check individual State requirements.)

Today, many professional acupuncturists are considered primary care physicians, and stand to earn a comfortable living*, and a personally-rewarding, long-term career. (*Earnings range from $40 -$70 per patient session.)

If you (or someone you know) are interested in finding alternative and complementary medicine programs, let professional training within fast-growing industries like massage therapy, cosmetology, acupuncture, oriental medicine, Reiki, and others get you started!

3 Ways to Really Engage Your Audience the Next Time You Show that Health Education Video

Add caption

Here are three (3) exciting ways to use video in your NEXT health education presentation:
1. Challenge your audience to look for several action points in the in the video.
Offer a prize for whoever meets the challenge. For example, there is a lead prevention video called The Silent Epidemic which focuses on the cause, prevention and dangers of lead poisoning. You could say "I will give a prize for the person who can find at least five ways to prevent lead poisoning mentioned in the film."
2. Put your audience to work.
Divide your participants into groups of no more than seven (7) people. Ask each group to develop a list of questions that were not addressed in the video.
Perhaps your audience has more insights than the film chosen. Once people are asked to provide critical feedback they are often very willing.
Have each group report back to the entire audience. Allow time for discussion after each presentation.
3. Challenge your participants to come up with at three (3) things they would do different if they were the creators of the health education film.
This is a great activity for an afternoon. After groups have been divided into teams assign them to create a new segment on storyboard for an audience that has not been addressed by the film. Or have participants come up with strategies to present the information in a more engaging way.
For example, a film on safety prevention aimed at teens may or may not capture all segments of teens. What would they suggest? What would those groups do different to make it work?
Have each group report their creative suggestions to the entire audience.

If you use any one or combination of these strategies it will dramatically reinforce the messages given in your health education film.
Give it a try!
