The case study client, Jock Nguyen, is a seventy-five year old man with advanced Congestive Cardiac Failure (CCF) living at home with some difficulties, including a diet he would not normally prefer and limited mobility.

When placing an ad for a job opening be sure to promote the fact that your organization is drug free and that pre-employment drug testing is mandatory. Make clear what you expect from your employees; during orientation drug policies should be reviewed in detail and each employee should sign a copy for your records as well as receive a copy to take home. Also, post a summarized version of your organizations specific policies in a place viewable to all employees. Maintaining a drug free workplace is both time consuming and costly, however, the benefits outweigh the costs. Conducting random drug tests on a monthly basis and drug testing after accidents are both useful techniques in maintaining a drug free workplace.
Every now and then I would build it better than it was before, similar to the job description of a doctor. This year as a senior, I am one of the five students from Warren East High School to attend a medical nursing aid program at Warren County Area Technology Center. This program focuses and emphasizes the medical field mainly through hands on training. I am lucky to have not paid for this class because I took it in High School, but this opened my eyes to see that one class like this would cost me around five hundred dollars but it is so rewarding towards my future at the end. I am also president of HOSA (Health Occupation Students of America) club and I strive to be a leader in my class as well as my community.
