I am a hospital pharmacist and I am a consultant on the critical care unit. We care for the most unstable patients. The aim is to stabilize them. I am part of a team. There is the intensivist who is the doctor in charge of the patient. He or she can ask other physicians or health care professionnals (including me) for a consultation. We each add or own...

1) people who believe in a god will often think hallucinations are related to god. 2) If the hallucinations impair the daily activities of living then the person affected needs helps.

Fascinated by art and art history, avid museum goer. Love to read about all these subjects.

The fear of being financially unable to provide, the fear of retaliation. the shame to admit being abused, and-or having stayed so long in that situation already.

She is unable to leave because Ian makes sure that all the decisions must go through him first.
-
In the text, when she speaks, she always refers to him, his needs. She does not speak at all about how she feels. To me, it seems to me like she is being repressed and there is a potential situation of abuse.

I think here one must read between the lines. It seems very likely that he has manipulated her into thinking that he is more competent...

One add really fascinated me. It was taking place on a plane. An old lady had trouble putting her luggage in the above compartment. What anyone would have thought to be a stewardess helped her.
Only to realize, once she started walking, that she was wearing wings and was the captain. WOW.

Hi! I am a hospital pharmacist, haven’t worked in regular pharmacies for years. Would like to learn more about the subject and help some of my patients (and even colleagues).
I am myself a survivor of verbal violence from my father as well as one ex-boyfriend. Thanks to my past experience, the relationship with the ex was short-lived, but still managed to... -

To me, it means conquest, power, but also development. In Canada, the French had started the creation of a country, but did not send enough people for it to really develop. The British then took control, there were good and bad consequences. But it ensured the development of my country.

Ysabelle Charest made a comment
This is so helpful!

It is a complex issue. We were a French territory up until 1763. Then we diverged. Our French culture remained very much related to religion, whereas in France religion’s influence diminished.
Then, the British took control.
We went through la Révolution tranquille in the sixties to break free from religion control.

As a Canadian, to me Europe is idealized; as I have only seen it while being on vacation. The richness of its culture, history, art and languages fascinates me.

My direct supervisor is a great leader. She respects us, makes our strengths flourish and guides us with our challenges. She takes the hardest part, does not leave us stranded. She protects us. Also clinically she is an excellent pharmacist.
I have difficulty in naming celebrities, since most of the time we only know one side of their story. People that we...

There is one saying, when all goes well, the leader walks at the end of the caravan, but when the going gets though, he takes the lead. To me, it describes true leardership.
it is not based on authority, but on respect and inspiration from the followers.
The leader has to know very well the field he or she is engaging in, and also have excellent people...

I am a hospital pharmacist. Working in hospitals means having lots of policies imposed by upper levels of management. I would like to try and find a way to embrace the changes in a constructive and inspiring manner. And make a contribution of my own.

Every one is unique, you can’t put all Muslim in the ‘’same box’’. Some are more traditional, some are more modern. Diverse ethnicities and culture. Has opened my mind.
-
Ysabelle Charest made a comment
I wish there would have been more photos showing the integration per se? Most pics show muslims people alone or with other muslims. I would have liked to see more connection with non muslims.

Love the soup-salad analogy.
-
Ysabelle Charest made a comment
Probably some prejudice; people being cautious because of the muslim identity.
-
Ysabelle Charest made a comment
I think that as a work team, we can accommodate the needs of our muslims brothers.
For example, I have a buddhist colleague that volunteers to work on Christmas day.
Some my colleagues volunteer to work more week ends.
I work more evenings to help out my colleagues who have kids.
If the team is diverse, we can accommodate each other even...

I don,t know much about sharia (yet). If we say it has no legal authority, it must still put some pear pressure on muslims to respect its suggestions?
Can a mentor please inform me?

I have learned a lot this week. I must admit I had to erase some previous prejudice and make sure to have a open mind. I liked the easy going videos with guitar music; and smiles; it made us feel closer to the people reciting their faith.

Very interesting articles. (Lol not a precise enough feedback... I liked the different methods that were explained.

Ysabelle Charest made a comment
I think this is very important; you may have all the clinical knowledge in the world; if you can<t relate properly to your trainee, if you don’t know how to teach and supervise, you won’t be able to adequately supervise him or her.

Some people are intrinsicaly more resilient than others, but it does not mean that is has to stay that way. Resilience can be learned; but you have to be willing to.
Some people prefer to stay in a ‘’victim’s role’’ instead of trying to cope better. -

I am a hospital pharmacist, and in my free time I enjoy the arts: music, reading, going to museums. I find that seing paintings or listening to music has a therapeutic effect on me, and an intrerested in finding more about the topic.

Is it possible to get a list of all novels mentionned in this course? It is a very interesting course, but there are many plots from the books mentionned that are revealed, a kind of spoiler alert. I won’t be able to read them all before the end of the course. But I have always found it sad when a plot was revealed before reading the book.

Within a same country there can be different ethnicities. For example, in Canada, we have the French and English: I am a mix of those two cultures. Also, there are geographic discrepancies, mentalities of people from the Maritimes (east provinces) can be very diverging from people pf the West.
So it would be difficult to fit Canadian in one simple... -
