For six months I will work for them testing medical equipment in hospitals throughout the country for Year 2000 compliance. Co-op stands for Cooperative Education. The concept is to provide college students the opportunity to get some hands on experience in their field before graduating and open possible doors for future employment.http://www.theroadscholars.com/medinet/blog/noreply@blogger.com (Road Scholar Sean)Blogger6125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5178770047407491875.post-4074073062377602598Mon, 19 Apr 1999 04:07:00 +00002008-07-07T21:08:23.842-07:00Hello from Downingtown, Philadelphia! I've had quite a weekend, and it's not over yet, although you won't be reading this until Monday afternoon at the earliest. First off, testing is going good in the hospitals. I was commended for my work in leading my team at Morristown last week. We have started a contest to see which team (mine or Ned's) will accurately complete the most units from now http://www.theroadscholars.com/medinet/blog/1999/04/new-jersey-update-6.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Road Scholar Sean)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5178770047407491875.post-2572222223857492145Mon, 12 Apr 1999 04:04:00 +00002008-07-07T21:06:12.717-07:00Good morning from the East Coast. It’s been awhile since my last update, and I’ve been busy! We have just about finished up at Mountainside Hospital and we are making preparations to move on to the final and most prestigious hospital for this project, Morristown. That move should take place on Wednesday. We have received three new additions to our team, Jason, Louie, and Diana. I am told we willhttp://www.theroadscholars.com/medinet/blog/1999/04/new-jersey-update-5.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Road Scholar Sean)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5178770047407491875.post-6349708700890666933Wed, 07 Apr 1999 04:01:00 +00002008-07-07T21:02:52.747-07:00Hey folks. Did the New York thing Saturday. We had a great time. I’m working on getting the pics and web site up ASAP. It’s about half way there, I’ll try and have it completed by Wednesday. A brief overview of the excursion: We missed the last ferry to the Statue of Liberty by 30 minutes, so we definitely have to go back We did hit the Empire State Building.

But let me start at the beginning. We’ve finally completed our first week here in New Jersey. It’s really been an interesting experience. We visit every department in the hospital to do our testing and that’s something I can honestly say I’ve never done. You don’t usually go to a hospital for a tour. But it was a neat experience http://www.theroadscholars.com/medinet/blog/1999/04/new-jersey-update-3.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Road Scholar Sean)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5178770047407491875.post-4860839189829659289Wed, 31 Mar 1999 21:35:00 +00002008-07-06T13:39:05.511-07:00Holiday InnNew JerseyHello again. Well, we've gotten settled here at the Holiday Inn in Springfield New Jersey. It's been a busy couple of days filled with adjustments, frustrations, long hours, and some good times. I'm actually finding myself enjoying the work. As I've said before, it's not that difficult and it's kind of neat going to the various departments around the hospital and testing the equipment.

So you won't be receiving this message until after we've landed. Smooth flight, except whenever I need to move the mouse--then all of a sudden turbulence appears. I'll try and update the web site to reflect places I've visited in the next couple of days. Until then, expect a few more http://www.theroadscholars.com/medinet/blog/1999/03/new-jersey-update-1.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Road Scholar Sean)
