Describe your leadership style. - ✔✔(personal)
As a leader, I prefer to be engaged and communicative with my team members. When I was on the
Philanthropy Committee in my sorority, I kept open communication with my members, allowing me to
address issues before they become major problems. For example, I realized a couple of my members
were having trouble meeting deadlines because of their academic workload, and by reaching out to
them, I was able to reassign their tasks to other members who were interested in more responsibility.
Describe a situation when you had to say no to a friend's request for help. - ✔✔(personal)
As an EMT, my friends have come to me for medical help and information. I usually try to help them to
the best of my abilities, when appropriate and within my scope of practice.
However, there have been some cases when I refuse to give them advice, such as mixing medications,
because I believe it is out of my purview and unethical for me to advise them. In these cases, I tell them
to ask their doctor or pharmacist.
What is your approach to working with someone whose values are vastly different from your own. -
✔✔(personal)
My approach to working with someone whose beliefs are vastly different from my own is to listen, try to
empathize, which opens up the dialogue and makes it easier to find a common ground.
My roommate was skeptical about masks and social-distancing during COVID-19, and by listening to his
reasons, I was able to find house rules that we would both agree upon that would keep us both safe and
allow his right to autonomy while sharing common space.
informed consent - ✔✔requires the patient or client to understand the proposed procedure, details,
possible alternatives, risk and complications, and consequences of doing nothing.
,Working with difficult people. - ✔✔I believe the difficulty is in the relationship, not simply the person.
There were a couple of patients who would frequently show up in the ED that would frustrate many of
the clinicians. Whenever I would work with these patients, I would check my frustration and bias before
going into the room. Once I'm in there with the patient, I have a clear agenda and set boundaries with
them. I always take the time to listen to their concerns and empathize with their situation. These
strategies have helped me many times and my conversations with them have usually been positive and
fruitful.
I usually get along with most of my coworkers and bosses. When I was working as a student on the
campus library, I had a difficult time while working with another student worker. His unfriendly behavior
was lowering my overall job satisfaction and performance. I pulled him aside one day after work and told
him how his behavior was making me feel. Surprisingly, he apologizes, saying that he was overwhelmed
with schoolwork, which was affecting his behavior at work. After that, he was friendlier and I was more
understanding.
What do you think is the significance of the statistic presented in the first sentence, that though 86% of
people know that excess salt consumption is bad for their health, only 53% of them actually consider salt
content when making food choices? - ✔✔(Personal, critical thinking)
The statistic alludes to the fact that individuals do not always act upon their knowledge. There are
confounding factors to behavior, such as environmental, cultural, and psychological. However, I would
hesitate to support this statistic before doing more research into how they got these numbers.
In countries where the provision of health care services is subsidized by the government, do you think
that governments should be able to prevent access to substances known to cause chronic disease? Why
or why not? - ✔✔(policy)
By preventing access to substances known to cause chronic diseases, governments may help their
citizens live long, healthy lives by reducing chronic diseases, increasing quality of life, and decreasing
overall healthcare spending. However, this also limits personal choice and may marginalize those
choosing to practice this behavior for personal reasons. Instead of outright prohibition, governments can
gradually limit access, such as the UK did with sugar and the US did with cigarettes by enforcing taxes.
Processed meat has been found to be a carcinogen in humans, putting it in the same class as smoking
cigarettes. As a public health official, what steps would you take when considering a ban on processed
meats in your community? - ✔✔(Ethical dilemma, policy)
, As a public health official, I would do more research into the effects on the health of the public. My main
concern is the health of the general public, the limitations of my office, and individuals' right to
autonomy. If the risk to the public is great and warrants intervention, I would see if the manufactures
could look into making it healthier. If not, then I would consider a partial ban, by enforcing taxes or an
educational initiative. I would not consider a complete ban unless the research is irrefutable and it
causes a direct and imminent health threat (think asbestos), as that will infringe on personal choice.
You are the manager of an office, where lunches have been missing from the common kitchen. What
would you do? - ✔✔(ethical dilemma)
As the manager, my priority is the well-being of my team members, including the one who may be
stealing lunches. I would interview my team privately, in a non-confrontational manner. If someone
confesses, I would inquire as to why to see if they need help (financially or otherwise), and see if there is
anything I could do to help them. However, I would have to warn them that this unprofessional behavior
cannot go on and next time, I will have to fire them.

Two of your team members, who sit near the lunchroom, have noticed the cleaning staff going in and
out of the lunchroom at odd hours, they want you to confront them. What would you say to your team
members? - ✔✔I would recognize that I do not have all of the facts in this situation, and try to find more
information before jumping to conclusions. I would interview them privately. If they have substantiated
observations of wrong-doing by the cleaning staff, then I would have a private meeting with the cleaning
staff manager informing them of what has been going on (without implicating anyone). Together, we can
work to help the offenders rehabilitate their behavior.
You are the professor at a university, and a student approaches you asking for a "strong" letter of
recommendation. The student was caught cheating last year, and a colleague told you that he "threw a
tantrum." What would you say to the student? - ✔✔My biggest concern is my student's well-being, as
well as the academic integrity of my office and the university. I would gather more information from the
colleague and the student, privately and non-judgmentally before jumping to conclusions. If it turns out
the student did cheat and act unprofessionally, but the student demonstrated maturity and learned from
the situation, then I would agree to write the letter of recommendation. However, if the student still
unprofessional when asked about the situation, then I would have to regretfully decline writing the letter
of support.
