US DISABILITY RIGHTS LAW EXPANSION

The US federal government has drafted a proposal to require health care providers to make real accommodations for disabled patients, "to ensure that MDE used by public entities to offer services, programs, and activities at places such as hospitals and other health care facilities is accessible to individuals with disabilities. MDE includes things like medical examination tables, weight scales, dental chairs, and radiological diagnostic equipment. Without accessible MDE, individuals with disabilities may not be afforded an equal opportunity to receive medical care, including routine examinations, which could have serious implications for their health. A lack of accessible MDE may also undermine the quality of care received by individuals with disabilities, “leading to delayed and incomplete care, missed diagnoses, exacerbation of the original disability, and increases in the likelihood of the development of secondary conditions.”

Comments are open through February 12, 2024. https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/01/12/2024-00553/nondiscrimination-on-the-basis-of-disability-accessibility-of-medical-diagnostic-equipment-of-state

Hello!

I just graduated high school this year, but I was a dual enrollment student and I was able to get some of my college credits early. This will technically be my first semester in college and I am a little bit nervous since I have more challenging classes this semester. I am aiming to pursue the Radiology Technician program, I have been fascinated by this field for some years now because of the varieties of specialties within this field. From diagnostic imaging to radiation therapy, the various opportunities in radiology fascinate me, and I am eager to expand my knowledge and develop my skills in this field. I have this semester and the spring one to finish all of my prerequisite classes, and I am hoping to be able to join the program in Fall of 2025. Moreover, I am excited to broaden my knowledge in this class, as I have always had a passion for learning about different cultures, languages and global perspectives. Therefore, I am fully prepared and eager to engage in this course. I am sure this will be a great semester.

@angelofthemornings Making this a proper reply-post because as a reply it might end up being too big.

The field is very vast, but the most common would be the person that runs the tests a physician asks you to and signs the paper to validate the results - we can be found doing your bloodwork, urine, biochem analysis (which all falls under clinical analysis/clinical pathology), and many other fields like radiology (x-rays, tomography, etc), acupuncture, embryology... here in Brazil we can have up to 29 licenses, each one corresponding to a different field. Some of these you can come out of university ready to work due to experience in your internship, but some others will require a specialization course or a master's - like acupuncture and radiology.

My license is in clinical pathology, but I've also spent a year in a specialization/expertise program (after getting my bachelor's degree) in laboratorial surveillance for diseases of public health interest, with a focus on diagnostic tools of immunology (serology tests) and molecular biology (mostly real time Polymerase Chair Reaction - PCR).

So I'm both licensed to work in any hospital or particular lab to run tests (with the objective of a diagnosis), and to work with the government in public health surveillance (where the objective here isn't a diagnosis, it is to confirm cases of a disease in a certain population and keep an eye out on how it behaves throughout the year, epidemiology).

I was about to decide between a Master's or a "direct" Doctorate (a Doctorate that "skips" a Master's and lasts longer than the usual Doctorate program) but then the pandemic came and many internship deals crashed, unless you were in virology, as that became the main and only focus of research at the time. I tried for a spot in the State's Strategic Lab, but it was interview-only and for only 1 candidate - I was placed 4th.

With that, my grandma's health also began to deteriorate, so I've been staying home since then to help care for her.

But 4 years later, I've started to job hunt again, and I'm now afraid I might be overqualified (and thus, "more expensive") to employers, as so far I havent gotten any return from my applications. I quite miss and wish to return to academia, sometimes, and with the State's lab, but I have a love-hate relationship with academia and it takes them forever to open up sign-ins for employees. Working in public health was my best time though, really, so if the opportunity arises, I'll be trying my chance there again - I did leave in good terms, and a lot o the chief researchers there wanted to work with me.

31 July 2024: Queen Rania visited the King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC) in Amman, on the occasion of the Silver Jubilee of His Majesty’s accession to the Throne.

During her visit, Queen Rania inaugurated KHCC’s new Radiation Oncology building, in the presence of Prince Talal bin Muhammad, Special Advisor to His Majesty, and Princess Ghida Talal, Chairperson of the King Hussein Cancer Foundation (KHCF) and Center.

Covering over 2,700 square meters and featuring state-of-the-art medical equipment, the new facility was established to meet the rising need and increase the Radiation Oncology Department's monthly capacity from 260 patients to approximately 400. An estimated 60 percent of KHCC patients require radiotherapy as part of their treatment plan.

Princess Ghida Talal explained that, over the past 25 years, the King Hussein Cancer Center has become a cornerstone of cancer care in the region, serving more than 70,000 patients. She also expressed her deepest gratitude to Their Majesties King Abdullah and Queen Rania for their steadfast support of this Jordanian institution.

The building’s inauguration was attended by Prince Hussein bin Talal, Prince Muhammad bin Talal, Princess Rajaa bint Talal, Prime Minister Bisher Khasawneh, Royal Court Chief, Yousef Issawi, Minister of Education and Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research Azmi Mahafzah, Minister of Health Feras Hawari, KHCC CEO and Director General Asem Mansour, KHCF Director General Nisreen Qatamish, and several members of the KHCF/KHCC Board of Trustees.

The Queen also toured several KHCC departments, including Jordan's first neurosurgery suite, in which more than 300 operations have been conducted since its opening in 2019. She also visited the center’s pediatric department, which treats approximately 90 percent of Jordan's pediatric cancer patients.

Spanning 108,700 square meters, KHCC receives approximately 7,000 new patients, 14,000 admissions, and 250,000 outpatient visits each year. Its key facilities include Jordan’s first public umbilical cord blood bank, intensive care units for children and adults, diagnostic and therapeutic radiology departments, a cellular therapy and applied genomics department, and a bone marrow transplant program.

Understanding Cancer Centers of America Through Reviews

Choosing the right cancer treatment center is one of the most important decisions for individuals and families facing a cancer diagnosis. Comprehensive care, cutting-edge treatment options, and emotional support are key factors in making this choice. Reviews of Cancer Centers of America (CCA) provide valuable insights into patient experiences, helping others understand what to expect and how these facilities cater to the unique needs of those battling cancer.

Cancer Centers Treatment Of America are known for their integrative approach to cancer treatment. Combining advanced medical technology with holistic support services, they aim to treat not just the disease but the whole person. Reviews frequently highlight how this philosophy creates a comforting and empowering environment for patients. From tailored treatment plans to attentive care teams, patients often describe feeling genuinely cared for and supported throughout their cancer journey.

A standout feature mentioned in many reviews is the personalized approach to care. Cancer is a complex and multifaceted disease, and no two cases are the same. At CCA, treatment plans are customized based on each patient’s specific diagnosis, medical history, and personal needs. Reviews often commend the time and effort taken by oncologists and medical teams to explain treatment options, answer questions, and ensure patients fully understand their care plans.

The availability of advanced treatments is another aspect that garners positive feedback. CCA facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including options like targeted therapy, immunotherapy, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. Patients often appreciate having access to the latest advancements in cancer care, which can improve outcomes and enhance quality of life during treatment.

Beyond the medical aspects, CCA’s focus on holistic care receives frequent praise. In addition to conventional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation, these centers often provide complementary therapies such as nutritional counseling, physical therapy, and emotional support. Reviews frequently mention the benefits of having access to mental health professionals, support groups, and wellness programs that help patients and their families cope with the challenges of a cancer diagnosis.

The multidisciplinary care model used by CCA is another frequently discussed topic in reviews. This approach brings together experts from various specialties, including oncology, surgery, radiology, and supportive care, to collaborate on treatment plans. Patients often express gratitude for this level of coordination, noting that it simplifies their care journey and ensures all aspects of their health are addressed.

Convenience is also a recurring theme in reviews. CCA centers often provide on-site amenities, reducing the stress of managing multiple appointments at different locations. Having everything from diagnostic imaging to therapy sessions in one place streamlines the treatment process and allows patients to focus on healing.

However, reviews also highlight areas where some patients feel there is room for improvement. For example, some individuals mention long wait times for appointments or delays in obtaining second opinions. Others note that the cost of care can be a concern, especially for those without comprehensive insurance coverage. Transparency about expenses and insurance acceptance is a common suggestion for improvement.

The role of patient advocates is another aspect frequently mentioned in reviews. Many patients describe how these advocates help navigate the complexities of cancer care, from understanding treatment options to handling insurance claims. Their support often makes a challenging process feel more manageable, and their dedication is a point of appreciation in many reviews.

Family involvement is also highlighted as a strength in CCA reviews. Cancer impacts not only the patient but also their loved ones, and CCA’s emphasis on involving families in the treatment process is seen as a significant benefit. Counseling, educational resources, and support networks for caregivers are features that resonate deeply with families navigating a cancer diagnosis together.

The overall atmosphere at CCA centers is another element that receives frequent attention. Many patients note that the welcoming and calming environment helps alleviate some of the stress associated with treatment. The compassionate and professional demeanor of staff, from receptionists to nurses and doctors, contributes to a sense of trust and comfort.

Cancer Centers of America reviews provide a comprehensive look at what these facilities offer, showcasing their commitment to advanced care, patient well-being, and holistic support. While no single facility can meet every patient’s needs perfectly, the positive feedback from many individuals highlights the strengths of CCA’s approach to cancer treatment. For those seeking a center that prioritizes innovation, compassion, and a personalized care experience, Cancer Centers of America remains a strong consideration.

Ultimately, reading reviews and learning from the experiences of others can play a critical role in making informed decisions about cancer care. They offer firsthand insights into the quality of care, the effectiveness of treatments, and the overall patient experience, helping individuals and their families feel more confident as they navigate this challenging journey.
