Blog 5: Mentorship and Research Reflection

1. When I was looking for my first topic which was nursing it was very difficult looking for nurses that would let students in the hospitals and the only thing that I could be able to find was a program but it wasn't for individuals. It was only a summertime program and I would have to pay to get into it. So I decided the next best thing was dentistry and my mother told me to call my local dentist clinic. I have always been their patient since I was little kid. I called them and they were fine with being my  mentors and I was glad that I got turned down by the hospitals because I wouldn't have had much fun being there than at my dentistry clinic.
2. For choosing my most important information so far was from a book called “Esthetics in Dentistry” by Ronald E. Goldstein.  The one chapter I focused on was chapter three which was marketing. It went into depth on what types of different marketing there is for starting a dentistry business.  It talks about seeing the atmosphere from a patient’s perspective; to also show and guide how fellow employees should act around patients and also with each other. It went well since I want to base my topic on dentistry business and see how it works starting from the beginning.
