Blog 5 - Mentorship and Research Reflection
1) When I first started looking for a mentor I contacted local hospitals to see if i could mentor with them. Once I knew that I wasn't going to hear back from the big hospitals I looked to people that I already knew. I had the option to mentor two of my aunts; one is a physical therapist who lives in Anaheim and the other is a lab technician who lives in Ontario. However, a few weeks later I found out that one of my friend's relatives works in a medical group. I decided to contact her and ask her if she could be my mentor because her field of expertise was closer to what I wanted my topic to be.
2) A Conceptual Framework for Quality of Care - Ali Mohammad Mosadeghrad has been the most useful article because Dr. Ali Mohammad Mosadeghrad and a team of content analysts look at the many components and aspects of healthcare and develop a fundamental guideline/framework that every medical practice should follow. Their research looks at the impact of a good administration, policy makers, suppliers, aesthetics of the hospital, and individual doctors. This article gives me a lot to work with in terms of finding new research.

Blog 2: Summer Mentorship
1. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16nMvGQtfUc-D9RjPC4mtB-PNHDN7iQ9_SgRP6vJ9r78/edit?usp=sharing
2. I did my summer mentorship at the Chaparral Medical Group, Claremont. My mentor is Alexis Berger, who's office number is (909)-621-3479
3. How can I adjust my essential question to better fit my experience at the summer mentorship?
What kind of medical information would I be able to acquire at the medical group?
Would a mentorship at the medical group be beneficial to my senior project?
Because my essential question is adjusted to fit with my mentorship, would a mentorship at the medical group lead to an interesting essential question?
4. The most important things I gained from this mentorship are the connections. I met new people that have connections into the medical field. This makes finding interviewees for senior project easier.
5. After doing my mentorship I decided that I was going to commit to the medical field as my topic for the senior project. I want to focus on the aspect of patient care in my project. Although the work that they gave me at the medical group was repetitive, however I was able to watch the interactions between the doctor, the nurses, and their patients. After watching these interactions I knew what my essential question was going to be. "What is the best way to improve patient care in a medical office?"
