Going Back to Old Health Care System

Today’s health care is so modernized that even payment system is most of the times through health card and other insurance cards. I observed that most of the corporate employees have their health card to use when they’re sick or when they need regular checkups, treatment and on their annual physical examination. It’s actually better for us as we can avail treatment anytime with the use of our health cards but sometimes it took us long for approval. Well that’s the hassle if you have health cards to use.

Anyway some physician wants to get back to old system and practice private medicine wherein they will provide concierge medicine devoid of joint partnership with insurance companies. It’s like going back to the old days where patient would pay directly for the services rendered by the doctor. If you want to be a part of the group of physicians who practice this kind of medicine you can check with American Academy of Private Physicians and start changing the health care system.

Qualities of a Good CT daycare

Things that you should check when finding the right daycare for your child.

Connecticut day care is one of the popular options for working parents where they can confidently leave their kids as they go to work. Because of this, there a number of CT daycare providers around which gives the parent a difficult time deciding which daycare to choose for their kids.

When choosing a daycare where you can entrust your kids to, it is important to consider the following factors:

· License. When looking for a daycare for your child, the first thing that parents should check is the Daycare’s license. Licensed and accredited day care means they have been inspected and certified to provide safe, clean and healthy environment for the kids. Regular inspection is conducted and only those who have followed the rules and abide by the regulations can get accreditation and licenses. To make sure of this, daycare owners hire competent staff who have experience with child care and these staff will be given proper training to become fully equipped to provide the right care and attention to all the kids. All licensed daycare pass the sanitary standard so it provides a healthy and clean environment for the kids. It also has an excellent facility like fire escape, fire extinguisher, safe and clean toys and the like.

· Facilities and Environment. A good daycare center provides a safe, clean and stimulating environment where the kids can explore and learn. They should have the right toys and educational materials so kids will not only be given an opportunity to play, but to learn as well while they are staying at the daycare.

· Caring and Experienced Staff. The staff of the daycare is the heart and soul of the center as they have the big responsibility of taking care of the kids. Staffs who are dedicated can show real love and car for the kids. It is also important that staffs have the proper training on child care and early education so they will know how to handle any kind of situations and can be like a CT preschool where they can teach the kids the basics like alphabets, letters, colors, shapes and more so kids will have the opportunity to learn new things everyday.

· Child to Staff Ratio. Aside from the experience of the staff, parents should also look at the child to staff ratio of the day care. A small child to staff ratio is better as this means that staff can give much attention per child to ensure each of the child’s safety.

A parent who decides to bring their kids to a daycare is like assigning the center as the child’s second home. That is why it is really important for parents to take time and check the daycare if it will provide a safe, secure and healthy environment for their kids.

Personalized Health Care

I’m happy today that Mom has completed her sleep and not complaining about her arthritis. The past few days have been painful for her as the cold weather increases the pain on her knees. She doesn’t want to take the regular medicines for her arthritis because she prefers the external one or the ointment. We’re now thinking of getting her the usual therapy she had years ago. We’re planning to look for the right physical therapist because she has had a consultation and checkup last year with her arthritis doctor but she refused to drink the medicine prescribed to her. One of our close relative told us that it’s not safe to take the medicine daily because it might bring complications on other internal parts of her body. She’s trying our herbal sometimes but the ointment gives her the relief she’s looking for.

I’ve been browsing the net and found orthopedic surgeons Richmond  which offers outpatient surgical facility and promotes personalized healthcare. They believe that in order for us to claim that we have the best care we should have the best surgeons and the best facility. They specialize in orthopaedic surgery, ophthalmology, interventional spine center, pediatric surgery, ear, nose, throat and other surgeries.

Being Modest and Simple

It’s always nice to attend weddings as you’ll get to see relatives, family, old friends and meet new ones also. Since it’s my Mom’s hometown it seemed Mom’s the most popular woman there in the wedding with plenty of greetings, kisses and update stories. They were so happy seeing her as we seldom visit the province. Well it looks like Mom is the most favored guest too. Anyway looking back at the wedding I noticed that guests in the province are more simple than in the city wherein you’ll never be surprised to see Black diamond earrings on special gatherings like parties, weddings, anniversaries and other occasions.

In the province they’re happier and livelier in their greetings but they’re modest in dressing up. That’s for the elderly and matured women but for the teeners they’re just the same as in the city. I guess it’s the trend nowadays to look more modern and vain in some aspects. I didn’t like kids having heavy makeup as they don’t look like innocent anymore. Moms should practice simplicity in the way they dress up their kids or in the way they doll up their face as it looks over most of the times. My fear is that they will get used to it and practice it when they’ve grown bigger. Just my thoughts and opinions only.

Happy Wedding

When my family attended the wedding of my cousin’s son last Saturday we were all busy meeting our relatives especially my Mom who is the native of our hometown. She was greeted by all her former students who were there to witness the wedding ceremony and share the moments of the newlywed couple all throughout the reception. The couple was so busy entertaining guests that we bonded with them after the guests had left the place. We had our own picture taking outside the shots of their official photographer and we arranged the shots.

When it’s time to open the first set of gifts they were happy to see some unique keepsake gifts from close friends who knew them since school days and thought of surprising them with unique presents on their wedding. It’s always memorable and thoughtful to give a keepsake gifts especially if it’s personalized or customized for the recipient. Anyway they didn’t finish opening all of the gifts and they will open the rest on the bride’s home. Well both the groom and bride seemed so happy that day and I’m glad for them too.

Be Cautious on Prescribed Drug Dependency

Some people don’t want to see their doctor when they’re not feeling well for varied reasons. Others just don’t feel consulting to doctor on minor sickness that they feel while some just feel that ordinary commercial medicines are enough to treat them. This is just the same to those who are dependent on prescription drugs and self-medicating them with their own medication. Well people like these can easily have prescription drug abuse addiction and this is not an ordinary case because it’s kind of alarming also.

This kind of addiction even if using a legal medicine can be a hazard to our health because it can affect your body and your brain as well. Being dependent on prescription drugs can lead to addiction and will need on-site detox and treatment to rehabilitate the user. I remember several years ago when my relative became dependent on cough syrup and after several weeks of taking it he became addicted to it that it haunted him for many years. I realized that anything in excess is bad and can be an addiction. We should be cautious in getting dependent on drugs even if it’s legal and prescribed.
