Medical Card Genius!
Medical Card Online!
It seems the HSE have finally come into the technological world and start to use it to everyone’s advantage.
With delays on everything HSE, between being inundated with applications from the unemployment line to disputes and strikes across the board, it seems everyone is waiting for something from the HSE.
BUT, after much criticism received on the delays and waiting times for medical cards, the HSE have announced their launch of their GP visit or Medical Card online application service.
You can now go online and check if you qualify and if so, you can also go through the motions with their online application service!
Paddy Burke, Head of the HSE’s Primary Care Reimbursement Service (PCRS) says, “The service will be of interest to thousands of people who simply wish to verify eligibility”.
He went on to comment on “90% of applicants who automatically qualify for a medical card based on their income will be able to use the website for their cards”.
With a combination of relief from applicants and also the HSE employees workload, this may well be one of the best steps the HSE has taken in recent times.

Doctor Doctor!
Well folks, it’s a Bank Holiday weekend and just the right time for a ‘Doctor Doctor’ joke -
Patient - ‘Doctor Doctor, I feel like a pair of curtains’
Doctor - ‘Well, well, just sit there and pull yourself together’
Enjoy the Bank Holiday weekend folks and talk again next week.

Light at the End of the Recessionary Tunnel!
It seems that jobs are on the increase and that there really is a map in place for new jobs coming up in the next 2-3 years in Ireland.
There have been various reports on the news about Ireland coming out of this recession in the next 3 years and slow as I am to admit it, it does seem like the investments keep coming!
From semiconductor producers investing in their Irish plants to US call center giants creating 400 jobs in the gaming industry, to a Galway company winning a space agency contract, one cannot argue with the facts in plain sight - jobs are on the increase!
Plus don’t forget all this talk of Nano-Technology - however, that may be just a little longer than 3 years!
So whether you gained all your experience in the semi-conductor world or you have worked in a call centre all your life, things really do like they are turning for the better.
Slowly but surely we will get there!

Other people's opinions
Other people’s opinions can be dangerous - always check it out before making a decision based on them.
We have had 2 recent episodes where our job seekers had been told by other people negative things about the Company they were applying to for a job and nearly pulled out as a result.
This is where word of mouth can be dangerous.
Check out the facts yourself first before making such a critical decision regarding your career and life balance.
Both cases were unfounded and it transpired that these were ex Medical Sales Reps who had left both Companies on a bad note and were both spreading negative feedback about these Companies down the Medical Sales Grapevine.
If you are a job seeker, you need to be very thorough in your methods and your research.
It is okay to hear negative things about the Company you are considering, but check it out - try to get a balanced non biaised opinion.
We are very thorough as Recruitment Consultants within the Medical Industry and will know whether rumours or word of mouth is true or not as we know our Client Companies very well and can therefore advise.
However, it is still imperative you seek out both sides of story and DO NOT let one person’s opinion dictate your career path.

Stop and Take Note!
Be Prepared! The single most fatal error when going to an interview is lack of preparation.
When attending an interview you must always prepare for all eventualities. For example, if you are a Medical Sales Rep and going for a Medical Sales job interview and you are required to do a presentation, then please cover all options!
- Do the presentation early, have it perfect so you have at least 4/5 days to practice delivering it, and practice the timing - 10 minutes with 5 minutes for questions
- Handouts - bring a minimum of 3 handouts of the presentation. Your interviewers may not want a copy, but it is best you have it to hand for their future reference
- Have it saved and ready to go on your laptop!
- Save it to a memory stick and bring the memory stick with you! They may wish to view it on their own facilities.
Do not get caught out without duplicates of your work, the last thing you need is an IT error just as you are about to go “on stage” and you have no back up. It is unprofessional and shows a lack of preparation on your part.
Remember that doing a presentation in an interview informs your interviewer of your speaking, selling and presenting skills for their company and their products.
Imagine they are your clients and they have allocated you 15 minutes of their time to hear you speak about the products you are selling. Your own laptop crashes before you even open the presentation and you haven’t got it backed up on a memory stick?
Always be prepared!

Be the Best
When reviewing or re-doing your CV, stop and rethink it. You need to think of your CV as your representative on first look! Put your best foot forward with your CV.
- Do not tweek your CV to the job, rather include the relevant details in each position you have held and that should speak for itself.
- Pur your jobs in chronological order and not in terms of relevancy to the job you are applying for. i.e. in date order not your Nursing jobs first then your Medical Sales jobs.
It is easier to read a CV when put in chronological order. If your CV has all the relevant duties worked per job, then it will speak for itself and your best foot will be put forward to potential employers.
So rethink when revising your CV - simply make sure all the details are up to date and it will speak for itself!

New Rules
This week, the Board of An Bord Altranais have discussed new nurses rules to be drafted, to ascertain the accreditation of
- advance nurse practitioners and
