The screening tools will be used by Perinatal Navigators of IRHA partnering organizations to collect data about women\u2019s pregnancy history as part of the Healthy Start Initiative. I worked closely with a staff member and was able to teach her more efficient ways of creating\u00a0screening tools in\u00a0RedCap. Together, we accomplished about two weeks of work in less than five days.\u202f I have also assisted my supervisor Dr.\u00a0Amnah\u00a0Anwar with various tasks,\u00a0including finalizing two grant reports necessary to continue receiving funding for her projects.<\/p>\n<p>One of her projects funded through grants is the Indiana Rural Opioid Consortium (InROC). At the annual IRHA conference, Dr. Anwar, a fellow intern, and I presented about\u00a0InROC\u00a0at our booth. We provided information to health professionals and students. A unique feature of our exhibit was a mock teenager\u2019s bedroom; it contained 13 hidden fake drugs. We had a challenge in which participants searched the room to find as many drugs as they could in 45 seconds. Most participants found only a couple, and this alarmed them. It became a great conversation starter for them to learn more about substance abuse disorder.<\/p>\n<p>In the future, I look forward to additional presentations regarding our mock teen bedroom that we will be bringing to a few hospitals. I am also eager to shadow administrators of Gibson General Hospital&#8211;my county\u2019s hospital&#8211;to learn more about the administrative side of healthcare.\u00a0I would like to thank the Global Health Initiative for this opportunity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abraham Kiesel &#8217;20 &#8212; As an intern for the Indiana Rural Health Association, my first major project this summer was to convert physical screening tools to online tools using\u00a0RedCap, which is a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":158,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[104,88],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1849","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-2019-summer-internships","category-global-health"],"w_featured_image_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1849","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/158"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1849"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1849\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1969,"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1849\/revisions\/1969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1849"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1849"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.wabash.edu\/summerinternships\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1849"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
