Heads up IT professionals – Health Care could be your new frontier…or could it be FOOD

Hi everyone

Meeting with a candidate recently, we discussed how her return to working in healthcare as an IT Consultant became her way of safeguarding against the recession….I had always thought of FOOD being safe but, didnt think through healthcare

Why? healthcare actually booms slightly when the economy takes a dive. People start paying attention to the creaks and twitches they didnt before….they ask for MRIs, tests etc and are more apt to go to the doctor. People’s levels of stress increase and sometimes the inclination to get tested reveals stress related issues, blood pressure, ulsers, cholesteral.

In order to transition to healthcare, you dont always have to have a healthcare background, there are many transferrable skills. The pace is fast due to all of the new technologies being released currently (e.g.:E-Health, Film to digital in imaging systems); the stiff regulatory compliance and governance challenges; the audits, and then there is also the convergence of disperse international standards and technologies. So to work in the field, you have to have thick skin to be able to deal with senior level stakeholders on the business side….sense of URGENCY you ask?…..”Human Life”….that takes precedent over bank transfers, money wires and most things technical..even re-stocking the shelves of grocery store……imagine what would happen if an xray didnt reach a surgeon/or radiology specialist getting an emergency surgery call at 3am because of a bottleneck in the network.

Upon approval, the patient’s doctor prescribed are http://cute-n-tiny.com/tag/clay/ cheap cialis in canada going to be filled. This is quite essential so make sure you know the removal generic 10mg cialis process if you require it in your future. Bile disinfects the body by removing heavy metals, poisonous chemicals, medications, and other buy cialis overnight contaminants. Thus they lose their confidence & it also leads to price sildenafil http://cute-n-tiny.com/page/58/ various sexual disorders such as involuntary ejaculation during sleep and low libido. Just some food for thought…………..which also reminds me that “food” is another safer haven to focus upon…..not food services(restaurants) but grocers, whole salers, manufacturers, distributors of FOOD- not to mention any technology that touches the supply chain (SAP?). Every one has to eat. Its amazing how many businesses feed into our largest retailers……..think of the whole supply chain and the technologies and specialties that run rampant……….

Just a brain dump, thought I would post

Friday! At Last
