This week in ISM I have met with my mentor, completed an FPN
speech outline, and recorded the first part of my FPN speech. As well, this
week, I created a draft of my FPN invitations. During my mentor visit, I worked
on my final product and also learned about the insurance side of optometry. I
learned about the different types of insurance policies and how optometrists
must work with insurance companies to make sure that their patients are
covered. For my FPN speech outline, I created a brief outline which highlighted
the different things I felt were important to me in my ISM journey. Having an
outline for my speech completed made it easier for me to later film the first
part of my speech. The last thing I did this week was create a draft of my FPN
invitations. For my FPN invitation, I used an online invitation maker and will
print the design on cardstock to make the invitation more professional. I would
consider this week a success in that I was able to upload the first part of my
FPN speech and also learn about the insurance side of optometry. Next week, I will
continue to work on my final product and plan on having a physical prototype of
the product by the end of next week. As well, I will make an FPN guest list to
ensure that I have at least 10 people at my FPN presentation.
