In preparation for a new school year, WKUHS held its annual Staff In-Service on August 18 - August 21, 2009. During this time staff members participated in a variety of trainings and departmental overviews. Some of which included:

• Insurance and Billing
• Review of Charge Ticket
• Front Office/Clinical Policies and Procedures
• Emergency Contraceptive (Plan B)
• Blood Borne Pathogens
• HIPAA Training
• A4/EHR
• Vaccines
• Scheduling

On Friday, Jim Fulkerson, University Experience Instructor/Coordinator Peer Mentor Program visited WKUHS. He discussed the Myers-Briggs HumanMetrics Test and reviewed staff personality results. The test is based on Carl Jung Myers-Briggs typological approach to personality. HumanMetrics provides practical and validated instruments and professional services for:

• team building
• candidate assessment
• leadership
• career development
• psychigraphics
• integrated solutions
• and more

Overall, the Staff In-Service training was very beneficial to the employees at WKU Health Services! We look forward to another successful year of providing quality healthcare to the students, faculty/staff, and alumni at WKU.
