Hello everyone. I am looking for a summer internship (to complete my
Health Care Management degree) that combines both the office side as
well as the technical side of O&P. If you can help me with either
finding a place to do an intership or providing me with place to do one
I would truly appreciate it. I know this is a strange request but I
really would rather see the business side of O&P rather than just a
regular hospital. I feel I would benefit more from the O&P atmosphere
since that is what I plan on doing in the future. Here is a little
information about myself:
I am a senior at Appalachian State University with a major in Health
Care Management. I will graduate in December 2002. After completing
the undergraduate degree, I plan to attend a certificate program for
prosthetics.
I am excited about the prospect of gaining knowledge and experience in
the administrative aspect as well as the production of prosthetics and
orthotics. The internship needs to be at least 400 hours or about 10
weeks during the summer. I want to become more familiar with insurance
claims, inventory processes, and accounting. In addition to the
business curriculum at Appalachian State University, I have taken
electives that are beneficial to the field of prosthetics including:
human anatomy and physiology, biology, chemistry, and physics. This
spring semester I am in a Computer Aided Design class because the
research and design aspect of prosthetics facinating.
Working at Plattner Orthopedic Company in Peoria, IL for two summers
has catalyzed my interest in this field. I performed many of the
technical tasks required for producing prosthetics and orthotics. The
CEO of Plattner Orthopedic Company encouraged me to pursue the business
degree in order to have a complete understanding of all facets of
operations.
I would be interested in speaking with anyone about the possibility of
an internship. Thanks in advance for all your help. I have a resume
available for anyone interested.
Sincerely,
W. Brent Wright
