After completing my first semester of college‚ I have found a special drive within myself to do more and more. I was fortunate enough to seek help from individuals who also see the diversity barrier as a problem and ask them to educate me on why this is a problem and how can we as individuals do our part. Being from a city like Los Angeles‚ where we can find an exhausting amount of different cultures‚ we would expect to have many different faces in multiple professions. Instead we see the minimal

the people who just plain hate school and said it was the worst time ever. I tried to keep an open mind about the course‚ but it becomes difficult when you have so many people telling you so many different things. I tried to put all my opinions and misconceptions aside and give the material a fair chance. I hoped I would learn something new not just for my leadership abilities‚ but also about myself. As I attended class this last week‚ I believe the most interesting topic covered was the four

This polypharmacy teaching project has opened my eyes to the difficulty facing individuals who are prescribed multiple medications. Our patient was prescribed nine different drugs‚ however two of those were to be taken twice a day. That adds up to a total of eleven drugs to take daily.
