Read this small story, Hope that makes a BIG change .

Hey everyone,
Read this small story, Hope that makes a BIG change .

Professor began his class by holding up a glass with some water in it.
He held it up for all to see & asked the students

"How much do you think this glass weighs?"

'50gms!' ..... '100gms!' .....'125gms' ...the students answered.

"I really don't know unless I weigh it," said the professor, " but, my
question is:

What would happen if I held it up like this for a few minutes?"

'Nothing' ..the students said.

'Ok what would happen if I held it up like this for an hour?' the
professor asked.

'Your arm would begin to ache' said one of the student

"You're right, now what would happen if I held it for a day?"

"Your arm could go numb, you might have severe muscle stress &
paralysis & have to go to hospital for sure!" .. ventured another
student & all the students laughed

"Very good.

But during all this, did the weight of the glass change?" asked the professor.

'No'. Was the answer.

"Then what caused the arm ache & the muscle stress?"

The students were puzzled.

"What should I do now to come out of pain?" asked professor again.

"Put the glass down!" said one of the students

"Exactly!" said the professor.

Life's problems are something like this.

Hold it for a few minutes in your head & they seem OK.

Think of them for a long time & they begin to ache.

Hold it even longer & they begin to paralyze you. You will not be able
to do anything.

It's important to think of the challenges or problems in your life,

But EVEN MORE IMPORTANT is to 'PUT THEM DOWN' at the end of every day
before You go to sleep..

That way, you are not stressed, you wake up every day fresh &s trong &
can handle any issue, any challenge that comes your way!

So, when you leave office today,Remember to

PUT THE GLASS DOWN !

with regards

my interest in hospital adminstration

I am very much interested in hospiatl adminstration because
My days in the physiotherapy department often made me think about the prevention of injuries as well as the injuries themselves. I already doubted my future career choice as a physiotherapist. Although I loved the science of it and helping people, the lack of variety within the field and its limited options for growth bothered me. I needed a career that helped a large number of people, emphasized prevention and tertiary care, and would continually challenge and motivate me to improve. Knowing that I really did not want to pursue physiotherapy as I had originally planned, my thoughts wandered to the area of Hospital administration.
My first true Introductions to the Hospital Administration arena came in a class offered through the social preventive medicine (SPM) and as I listened to experts speak about difficulties in managing a Hospital, I was intrigued. The world of "capitation," "rationing of care," and Medicaid fascinated me, as I saw the range of problems that Hospital Administrators were trying to solve in innovative ways. This one semester class provided me with a basic but thorough understanding of the issues faced in health care today. In the last two years I have continued to learn about Hospital Administration both through coursework and work in the Hospital.
As student and member of SVIMS University which is organized to help the people in process of OP registration, help desk, public relations and counseling the patients for better governance of out patient department, by a committed people. In my work, I found there is a great deal more to medical care than the diagnosis and treatment of disease.
All these activities confirmed my growing interest in Administration, outcomes and effectiveness and quality of care, particularly within the private/managed care sector. These are my strongest interests because I believe they are fundamental to our nation’s health. We must achieve efficiency and access without sacrificing quality. Tata institute of social science would help me achieve my goals of
Furthering my public health education through the specialize coursework offered as part of its hospital administration program.
