Provide Help Where itÂ’s Vitally Needed

America is in the middle of a serious health crisis. As a nation, weÂ’re wealthier than ever before, yet weÂ’re paying a serious toll with problems such as obesity, being overweight, fatigue, and stress. As a result, consumers are crying out for answers.

They want natural alternatives that will help them live a better quality of life through looking and feeling better. They want to enjoy the things that make life worth living. The facts are clear – the dietary supplement industry continues to flood the market with more of the same ineffective products that simply don’t work.

You see, more often than not these dietary supplement companies compete on the basis of what we call “better sameness.” It all starts when a single ingredient becomes popular for helping a specific health issue. Then a multitude of companies all focus on the same ingredient and develop many different versions of basically the very same product.

At CNI we saw an opportunity to create truly unique products that provide a complete range of benefits, and donÂ’t just address one problem.

This “multi-dimensional” approach works so well because health issues have multiple causes and multiple symptoms. By approaching health problems in a comprehensive – or multi-dimensional – way, we’ve unlocked an incredibly powerful approach to overall wellness.

We listen to what people want, and we deliver products that really work. CNI and our dedicated staff of health and nutrition specialists are committed to assisting those who need our help to achieve optimum health and wellness.

We want everyone to enjoy a healthier, more active lifestyle for many years to come. We donÂ’t just talk about better health, we deliver the cutting-edge products that can help make it happen!

Better Products Begin with Better Thinking

ThereÂ’s a big problem with being ordinary. ItÂ’s justÂ…wellÂ…ordinary. So when it comes to creating nutritional products, ordinary approaches just donÂ’t cut it.

At CNI, we develop better products by assembling the best possible team of scientists and formulators. These proven professionals capitalize on their vast knowledge to create powerful products that truly change lives for the better. Feed My Brain, Lean Mystique, Sweet Jubilee and Premier Essentials were created using natural ingredients to work along with your body.

The Perfect Blend of Nature and Superior Science

Whether from primal Rainforests or other hard-to-reach places around the globe, weÂ’re committed to including in our products only the highest quality ingredients found in nature.

When combined with our advanced scientific findings and techniques, the results are excellent products formulated in a uniquely powerful way for your body to help heal itself and increase your overall health and well-being.

WeÂ’re committed to helping you achieve more than you ever imagined. Our products are the best, and our business opportunity is designed to help you maximize your earnings.

Respiratory Therapists Can Breathe Easier: Employment Opportunities Continue To Expand

Respiratory Therapists Can Breathe Easier: Employment Opportunities Continue To Expand

Respiratory therapists and their patients will breathe a little easier as opportunities in ArizonaÂ’s growing healthcare field continue to expand. Respiratory therapists are responsible for evaluating, treating and caring for patients with breathing or other cardiopulmonary disorders. Working under a physicianÂ’s direction, these trained professionals assume primary responsibility for all respiratory care therapeutic treatments and diagnostic procedures, including the supervision of respiratory therapy technicians.

(PRWEB) May 4, 2004

Respiratory therapists treat a variety of patients who range in age from premature infants with underdeveloped lungs who often need to be on ventilators, to elderly people with pulmonary disease. Respiratory therapists also treat patients with chronic asthma or emphysema, as well as administering care to patients who are victims of a heart attack, stroke, drowning or shock.

An increase of care for the middle-aged and elderly population who are at higher risk for cardiopulmonary disease is expected to make the demand even greater for respiratory therapists – especially in Arizona. Older Americans suffer most from respiratory ailments and cardiopulmonary diseases such as pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, emphysema and heart disease. As their numbers increase, the need for respiratory therapist will increase as well.

Job opportunities are particularly bright for respiratory therapists with cardiopulmonary care skills or experience working with infants. Employment of respiratory therapists is expected to increase faster than the average for all occupations through the year 2012. The Bureau of Labor Statistics states in their newly released data that the profession is expected to add some 37,837 new jobs between now and 2012.

Anticipating this growing need for healthcare practitioners, Pima Medical Institute, 3350 E. Grant Road in Tucson is now accepting students for their respiratory therapy program. This Tucson technical private school is helping to train and advance qualified students into fulfilling careers. Classes begin in May. Prospective students can call (520) 326-1600 to set up an appointment.

Graduates of the 88 credit-hour Respiratory Therapy program receive an Associate of Occupational Science degree. The program consists of classes in medical ethics, mathematics, chemistry, physics, human anatomy and physiology, medical terminology, advanced respiratory care techniques (including neonatal and adult special care procedures), general and advanced pharmacology, cardiopulmonary disease, patient assessment and the therapeutics that are required to function at the patientÂ’s bedside in the hospital setting. Entry-level employment opportunities are available in hospitals, medical centers, medical equipment companies, home health agencies, sub-acute, and extended care facilities.

PMI is one of the premiere medical vocational institutes in the western United States. The privately owned, accredited school provides students with a well-rounded education embracing theoretical classroom studies, as well as on-site training at medical facilities that mirror the working environment they will pursue after graduation.

Oh Mama! Finally, a Nutrition Bar for Pregnant Women

Oh Mama! Finally, a Nutrition Bar for Pregnant Women

Beth Vincent – Public Health Expert, Mother of Three and Co-Founder of Vincent Foods Introduces Oh Mama! -- Delicious Nutrition for a Healthy Pregnancy

Baltimore, MD (PRWEB) April 4, 2005

Addressing a void in the market for healthy and convenient foods aimed at pregnant women, Beth Vincent, CEO and Co-founder of Vincent Foods has created the Oh Mama! nutrition bar. Oh Mama! is the first nutrition bar formulated specifically to meet the needs of women who are trying to conceive, who are pregnant, or who are breastfeeding.

Getting the proper nutrition during pregnancy is critical. Doing so, however, is often a challenge for women who are busy, tired, or simply confused about what is best to eat. Oh Mama! nutrition bars are a convenient, healthy and delicious solution. The Oh Mama! nutrition bar delivers peace of mind to women as it contains DHA (an omega-3 fatty acid) as well as 14 vitamins and minerals recommended by the National Academy of Sciences for pregnant women in a tasty, low-fat snack.

Not only is Oh Mama! the first bar specifically designed for expectant and new mothers, it is one of few foods available with supplemental DHA. DHA has attracted attention in the news as a large and building body of research shows that this fatty acid, transferred from mother to child during pregnancy, is critical for a babyÂ’s brain, visual and central nervous system development. Unfortunately, there are not many sources of DHA in the typical American diet. Pregnant women, in particular, do not get enough of this important nutrient because they are cautioned to limit consumption of certain types of fish (a major source of DHA) due to concerns about mercury intake.

The inspiration for Oh Mama! came from Beth VincentÂ’s frustration in finding convenient, healthy and satisfying foods during her three pregnancies. Like most pregnant women, Beth became hungry at inconvenient times and was forced to eat what was readily available. Sometimes that meant eating a pop-tart, french fries, or crackers from a vending machine. When BethÂ’s doctor found out about some of the foods Beth was eating, the doctor recommended Beth eat more nutritious snacks for the health of the developing baby. The problem was that most nutritious snack foods just werenÂ’t convenient to bring to work or on errands. Beth saw that many of her friends also had a difficult time finding healthy and convenient foods to eat while pregnant and she decided to pursue a solution.

“I worked with doctors and nutritionists to design a bar that makes it both easy and enjoyable for women to get the proper nutrition at this time in their lives. In formulating this product we looked at what an average pregnant woman eats. We found that even with the help of a prenatal vitamin certain key nutrient levels were inadequate. Oh Mama! is meant to help those of us who can’t eat the perfect pregnancy diet,” explains Beth Vincent.

Dr. Suzanne Trupin, a Board Certified Obstetrician/Gynecologist, Professor at the University of Illinios Medical School and CEO of WomenÂ’s Health Practice in Champaign, Illinois has this to say about Oh Mama!,"I am excited to be able to offer the Oh Mama! nutrition bar to my patients. I only wish the bar had been available when I was pregnant with my children!"

Dr. Barbara Luke, ScD., M. P.H., 2005 recipient of March of Dimes Agnes Higgins Award in Maternal Nutrition and best selling author on maternal nutrition states, “As a nutritionist specializing in maternal and child health, I am always on the lookout for foods that help women get the right nutrition. The Oh Mama! bar is a wonderful source of vitamins and minerals for expectant and breastfeeding mothers. This unique product provides a convenient and delicious source of crucial nutrients often lacking in women’s diets. I wholeheartedly recommend Oh Mama! bars.”

With Oh Mama! Beth Vincent aims to create a stylish brand that helps women stay fit while helping their babies stay healthy. Beth has extensive education and work experience in public health and maternal and child health. She graduated from Johns Hopkins School of Public Health with a Masters in Health Policy and Management. She has worked in health care consulting, volunteered in both nutrition and prenatal clinics and has trained as a doula.

A low-fat, low-calorie, high-protein food, Oh Mama! supports active lifestyles. Oh Mama! bars come in three fantastic flavors: chocolate peanut butter, frosted white raspberry and yogurt honey ($22.50 per case of 15 bars when purchased on the Internet) and can be purchased online at www. ohmamabar. com and in many upscale maternity stores nationwide.

Getting Serious about Asset Management By Don Dovgin

Getting Serious about Asset Management By Don Dovgin

One meaningful question is on the mind of clincal people almost constantly; Where is it Now? The pressures of regulatory requirements coupled with never-ending rising costs have created a fury of frustration and chaos in the healthcare marketplace. Learn how technology has changed the landscape, now allowing clinicians to know exactly where all of their equipment is all of the time, while driving out the significant cost oft finding it.

(PRWEB) August 23, 2003

Who borrowed the monitor from the ER, and did not return it? When did you last see that infusion pump? Where did you lose that abandoned wheel chair? But most importantlyÂ…WHERE IS IT NOW? These questions are commonplace in hospitals as they attempt to keep track of their equipment.

The pressures of regulatory requirements coupled with never-ending rising costs have created a fury of frustration and chaos in the healthcare marketplace. This has driven the need for a more effective tracking solution for equipment, inventory, materials and workflow. Asset Management Tracking (AMT) is new technology that provides a competitive advantage for organizations that plan to adopt it.

Conventional hospital management systems have minimal capability in the way of asset tracking. They require costly paper and bar coding for most processes, and the success and accuracy of these systems are limited and questionable. Today, new asset tracking technology has pioneered a seamless management solution that delivers instant visibility in real time.

Using technologies driven by wireless tags, fixed position antennas and web-enabled software, AMT provides visibility with proven efficiency and operating returns. Through perpetual monitoring of the unique wireless tag signal, AMT can pinpoint any itemÂ’s exact location 24 hours a day by using Radio Frequency (RF) devices for tracking.

When properly attached, RF transmitters act like homing devices to track all different types of assets. They can be installed on infusion pumps, ECGÂ’s, ventilators, cardiac monitors, broncoscopes and hundreds of other types of assets. But how does RFID and more specifically asset tracking really benefit the hospital?

A Laurel research study indicates that a typical hospital carries an average of $3 million to $4 million in hard clinical and non-clinical assets. The same survey also states that most hospitals achieve a mere 57% utilization rate of capital assets.

A typical hospital has an inventory of 8 portable clinical devices per bed, at a cost that ranges from $500 for a wheelchair to $15,000 for a respiratory ventilator. Of these, 15% to 20% are missing at any given time. Hard cost for replacing this equipment is $500,000 per year. That, however, is not the end of the story.

Take for example a fully equipped surgical team. Average cost for this clinical labor is $600 per hour. A team minimally spends 10 minutes locating, preparing and assembling their surgical instruments and equipment. For a 12 surgery per day hospital, this wasteful time easily exceeds $400,000. What becomes even more compelling are the lost billing opportunities.

A Recent Washington Medical Study indicates a typical 950 bed hospital employs approximately 300 IV pumps at a cost of $25 each per day. This same hospital keeps 600 pumps on hand at all times to serve their patient population. If all IV pumps can be accounted for at all times, the actual number of pumps needed can be reduced to 330. This represents more than $2 million annual savings for the hospital.

This same study also points out that of the 300 beds using the IV pumps daily, less than 150 patients were actually paying the “per day” cost to the hospital because of poor equipment tracking. AMT could help the typical 900 bed hospital recover almost $8 million of annual lost charges.

Another attractive opportunity to healthcare providers is minimizing liability with regulatory standards with HIPPAA and JCHAO. HIPPAA cites “media controls”, articulating guidelines of equipment management and data capture. Because RFID tags act as transmitters, they can send signals back to a computer database to capture information.

This allows hospitals to better understand when equipment was used and which patients used them to schedule maintenance. It also acts as a quality control system to minimize equipment decontamination violations, by identifying patient-to-patient equipment transfer problems. These accurate real time records easily exceed the regulatory requirements for these two organizations.

By improving the medical equipment management process, AMT allows healthcare facilities to increase utilization rates and reduce equipment inventory. The system identifies underutilized equipment (which can be sold for cash), reduces capital expenditures and decreases a facilityÂ’s reliance on equipment rentals. The resulting savings generate a strong return on investment, and the typical healthcare facility experiences a payback period of less than 12 months.

Clinical people at work admit healthcare organizations are quickly realizing the need for good asset management in their workplace. For hospitals that have not yet moved to this type of system, there is going to be an acceleration of progress, particularly in light of HIPPAA and overall security. In practical terms the bottom line is smooth business continuity in terms of work flow and information.

Most hospitals cannot afford to be down for more than an hour. How long can you afford to be down and how much will it cost just because you canÂ’t find equipment?
