Opening a business is a huge leap: a leap of faith and a leap of trust in yourself and your community. Thankfully, for the past year, we've felt the support of this amazing Boulder community; fellow dental professionals who have welcomed us into the space, patients who've known me for years who have chosen to follow me on this new adventure and from our family & friends who've supported us the whole way through.

My family & I lived in Boulder previously and after pediatric dental residency, we moved back with the hope and expectation I could practice here for the rest of my career. I worked at Little Britches under the guidance of Dr. Richard Abrams, a pillar of the local dental community for many years who took me under his wing with the understanding I would inherit his legacy & practice when he was ready to retire. When the time came, the practice had a bid on it from another practice and because business is still business, and since as a person and not a business I couldn't raise the funds to match their offer, I had to leave the practice I loved.

With a lot of support and encouragement though, we decided to open up in South Boulder (which is where my family and I live); it's a new practice with a philosophy of prevention & a focus on education. We focus on the patient experience and try our best to make each child (and family) feel welcome and understood. We also try out best to be involved with the community we serve; we put on presentations at local pre- and elementary schools; we've partnered with I Have A Dream (a wonderful organization) to help improve the oral health of children in our community; we've given presentations with organizations connected to Boulder County and this summer we'll be doing fun activities for summer camps.

We've just celebrated our one year being open. We're continuing to grow & I would love to encourage you to come check out our practice to see what really sets us apart & could make us a great fit for your family. Come on by for a visit; we'd love to meet you!

Health Education Solutions, a leading provider of advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) and pediatric advanced life support (PALS) online certification, today released new PALS certification practice tests and a Pediatric Nursing Programs special section to help individuals who provide emergency care to children prepare for certification success and career advancement.

 

“Proper certification is vital for individuals who provide emergency care to infants, adolescents and children,” said Melissa Marks, president of Health Education Solutions. “Health Education Solutions’ practice tests and online resources are designed to help busy healthcare professionals learn more about the certifications they need and refresh their skills prior to the certification exam.” 

 

The Pediatric Nursing Programs special section offers helpful information, resources and data to help pediatric nurses and those interested in pursuing a career in pediatric nursing stay informed about healthcare trends and career opportunities. This series of articles is available in Health Education Solutions’ online research library at healthedsolutions.com.

 

The PALS certification practice tests, available now at healthedsolutions.com, each offer questions similar to those found on the actual certification exam. Free PALS certification and recertification practice quizzes each offer three five-question sample tests. A full PALS certification practice test and a PALS recertification practice test, both complete with 50 timed multiple-choice questions, are available for $35. A portion of this fee can be applied to the purchase price of the full certification course.

 

Practice test-takers are immediately provided with answers to the questions that were incorrectly answered following the test to help them identify the areas that may need more study time and attention prior to the full certification exam.

 

Health Education Solutions additionally offers online ACLS, stroke, basic life support (BLS), cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), automated external defibrillator (AED), bloodborne pathogens and first aid training for healthcare professionals and individuals seeking to be prepared for an emergency. Practice tests and quizzes are also available for the ACLS exam.
