Staten Island Audiological: Medical Assistant/Intern
No full textSpending time at Staten Island Audiological, under two highly trained specialists, Mary Goodacre and Kate Spektor ended up being more than a typical internship, it was an eye opening experience in my desire to be involved in the healthcare field. As I have spent the past three years studying primarily Biology and Psychology I was eager to gain real hands on experience that I could connect my educational foundation to real life practices. What I found working there is that it is a community within itself between the relationships of the Audiologists to the workers to the patients. I was not only just observing practices, but I was also being encouraged to partake in these experiences. I was able to help with patient evaluations, diagnostic testing, and keeping track of patient records. Being involved in a private practice was extremely different in comparison to bigger hospital settings I have seen. Everything felt more personal and tailored to the patients, I saw financial, emotion, and physical challenges. This internship not only confirmed my desire to be in the medical field, but to eventually work in a private practice because of the personal individualistic care the patients receive

No full textBalancing Sustainability with Preservation in Historic Italian Architecture
Get PDFThis research examines the intersection of historic preservation and sustainability in Italian architecture, analyzing how architects and contractors adapt historic structures to modern energy efficiency standards while maintaining cultural integrity. Using three Italian case studies—Ex-STA.VE.CO in Bologna, Sant’Apollinare in Perugia, and Castelvecchio in Verona—the study explores common challenges in regulatory compliance, material constraints, energy efficiency, seismic resilience, and adaptive reuse. Each case illustrates how sustainability measures interact with Italy’s stringent conservation laws and how historic buildings, inherently designed for climate adaptability, can be innovatively retrofitted. The findings provide insights into reconciling preservation principles with sustainable interventions, offering policy recommendations for future restoration projects
