Decision-making in the workforce is a process of responsibilities used by upper management to implement, enforce rules, regulations, and maintain a successful environment. Decision-making implemented more effectively by making a plan, thinking it through, accepting more than one opinion and determining what is best.

Although, more involvement helps improve understanding, utilize behavior skills and present opportunities for better communication. Everyday life consists of decision-making, the right decision may not always be applied, but ensure room for improvement and opportunity. Individuals approached decision-making in many different ways. As stated by (Jones, Graham, & Bateman, 2006) decision making is a procedure used to recognize a problem, weigh the alternatives and evaluate a solution in which, certain situations will require different approaches to become effective.

One of my first questions to Amber Dujay, my liaison and the volunteer coordinator was: what does CNIB stand for? I intended for this question to be interpreted as a request for the meaning of the acronym, as well as an inquiry into the values and mission of CNIB. The Canadian National Institute for the Blind is a non-profit, community-based organization that prefers to be known as their acronym for two reasons: the first is their intentions to distance themselves from the negative connotations of the word ‘institute’, which on its own presents problematic associations with restriction and “being locked up” (A. Dujay, personal communication, 9 February 2017). Secondly, the word ‘blind’ is misleading and does not encompass the scope of the populations

Apart from providing therapy services to these kids, the facility also provides free transportation and snacks for the kids who come to therapy. It is a joy to work for a company who takes care of their client’s needs. They go above and beyond their way to make sure that the kids are comfortable and well taken care of. I have always had a heart for service especially for the underprivileged. I used to go on medical missions with doctors in the Philippines to educate people of the benefits of physical therapy and working at this facility has helped me in a way to continue serving the disadvantaged

A review of the literature regarding spinal immobilisation has been undertaken using databases for PubMed, MEDLINE, CINAHL, OVID and Cochrane EBM. Reviews were electronically searched using the subject headings “spinal injuries”, “spinal immobilisation” and “management of spinal injuries”. The results generated by the search were limited to English language articles and reviewed for relevance to the topic. The aim of this literature review is to compare and contrast the views on spinal immobilisation and to achieve a better knowledge of evidence based practice.

We reach beyond our walls to engage in partnerships that improve the education and healthcare needs of our community. We invest in the community by continually improving services and broadening our spectrum of care.

Spinal Cord Injury Ontario is a charity devoted to helping people living with spinal cord injuries and other physical disabilities. They run many events every month to help fundraise money so that SCI can offer free programs such as peer support and enhancing independence to assist people living with a spinal cord injury’s.

As a result of low advertising we feel as if SCI
