Well, you made it. You actually did it. After years of giving everything you had, you've graduated medical school and are officially a physician. Beyond that, you are now a physiatrist. We don't know about you, but on July 1 of intern year, we were full of mixed emotions - we couldn't believe we were wearing our long white coats…every time we took a step something swept behind our calves, it was exhilarating! We had initials after our last names on our badges, and yet both terms – physician and physiatrist – seemed so distant to us. Despite the expected "imposter syndrome", we felt lucky, we were surrounded by a group of PGY-1's in the same shoes us. We were all starting on a fresh journey together. The transition from medical school to residency can be challenging; here are some things we wanted to pass along from our experience so far.
Whether it is a Preliminary Internal Medicine, Surgery, or Transitional Year, you are taking the next step in your journey. You are no longer the med student with pockets full of miscellaneous items in hopes you'll be of some help during rounds or surplus of notes scribbled or typed out in case that certain nugget becomes important. You are now an intern.
Congratulations and welcome to the family. Know that we were in your shoes and made it through intern year and are now loving physiatry. Hope these tips help. At the end of the day, it's all going to be fine, and you're going to have an amazing journey.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife." That happened 2 weeks after I graduated medical school and 2 weeks before I started my intern year in internal medicine. If navigating the new-found responsibilities of being a "doctor" was not challenging enough, adding a new marriage into the mix definitely made it a year of significant personal growth. Both are very exciting events; however, it can feel overwhelming if happening all at once.
To be honest, I had a difficult time prioritizing my life at first. My goal for intern year was to absorb as much knowledge about medicine as possible, so that I can better manage my patients when I start my PM&R residency the following year. This meant that through the long hours of work, difficult patients, and difficult cases, I needed to dedicate my focus and energy into learning and improving my craft as a physician.
However, being in a new marriage, it was equally important for me to invest my time and energy in my relationship and in learning to be a new family unit. I realized that my choices did not only affect me anymore and I could no longer be selfish with my time if I wanted this marriage to be healthy and succeed. As simple and obvious as that sounds, it was a challenging shift in mentality because I was so used to prioritizing my studies and my career for many years. For example, instead of just resting and having "me" time after a long day or week at work, I now needed to make sure I had enough energy saved up to spend quality time with my husband in going out and doing different activities together.
I learned that communication is key. Reassure your partner that he or she is very important to you and that work is not prioritized above them – it just currently takes up more time and energy. Give your partner a heads up on when your very difficult rotations (i.e., ICU, CICU, heart failure, etc.) take place so that they are also mentally prepared for your longer hours or for dealing with a more tired and maybe crankier you. I am very blessed with a husband that tries to be understanding of my quest in a career he knows very little about. It takes effort on both sides of the relationship. Intern year is definitely not easy, but it also gets better. If you can work through a new marriage in that environment, your relationship will have a stronger foundation because of it.
PM&R is a Broad Field
An attending recently told me, "The field of PM&R is the only medical field not limited by a patient's age, organ system or specific diagnosis." It's natural to feel a little overwhelmed at the beginning of every new rotation. Like in the movie Taken, you will learn a specific set of skills as you transition from one rotation to the next. From doing an ASIA exam on the spinal cord injury service to performing a subacromial joint injection in the sports medicine clinic, you will eventually expand your skill set and will be able to apply your knowledge in many different scenarios. For example, that very same paraplegic patient you took care of on your spinal cord injury service may see you for shoulder injections due to overuse injury from propelling his wheelchair. These challenges may seem very daunting, but they are one of the more rewarding aspects of our field.
Know the Limitations of a Rehabilitation Facility
At the end of your preliminary or transitional year, you may feel comfortable managing very sick patients. You should, however, be aware that the standalone acute rehab setting has its limitations. For example, "stat" labs may take 2-3 hours to result and IV medication use may be limited. In some cases, it may be better to send a patient to the ER if management will be delayed or limited. In addition, you should also consider if the patient is stable enough to participate in therapy. If your patient is too sick, they may benefit from a short stay at an acute care hospital to medically optimize them for rehab. As the saying goes, "When in doubt, send them out."
Remember Your Medicine
That being said, in the acute rehab setting, you will continue to use your clinical judgement and manage medical conditions. You are also likely to cross-cover patients on overnight call. Rehab call is unlike your prior call experiences. You are usually the only physician in-house, potentially covering more than 100 patients at times. You will find your triaging skills and clinical sense very valuable. Most importantly, if there is a medical emergency, you will be in charge. Taking the BLS/ACLS recertification courses may just be "another thing" on your checklist, but it is crucial to learn these skills.
You'll Never Walk Alone, it's a Multidisciplinary Team Effort
The PM&R team primarily consists of physicians, nurses, therapists, and case management. Everyone is an important player in taking care of the patient. The therapists and nurses tend to spend more time with the patients, so trust their judgement when they think something is "off." Case management is important in fighting for more time for your patients as well as assuring a safe discharge. Work closely with them to give your patients their best chance.
During your day, spend time with your patients and therapists in the gym. You will learn knowledge from the physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech therapists that you won't learn anywhere else in your training. This is also how you will see your patient's functional status, learn their goals, and celebrate with them in their achievements. You will find it the most rewarding part of your day. When I saw my aphasic patient count from 1-10 with speech therapy, it brought tears to my eyes.
Think Big Picture (#Goals)
In other medical fields, acute problems require acute answers. We are accustomed to thinking about problem X and solution Y. In PM&R, our biggest goal is to improve the patient's quality of life and maximize independence upon discharge. The beauty of PM&R is that we always look at the big picture, and how to foresee and overcome any potential challenges a patient may face as they go home or to a skilled nursing facility. It's always important to look at the patient's individual goals. What is their home setup? What do they need for independence? What are their safety barriers? These are some questions that will help you become a better physiatrist and advocate for your patient.
This is not what I signed up for.
The shrill screech of the night float beeper resonates through the small shared call room.
You ease yourself off of the top bunk, careful not to further disturb the sleep of the senior resident who lies below.
It's 3:30 am, and you have been asleep for a scarce hour, long enough to have been inside REM and still confused by the fleeting remnants of a panicked call night dream, and short enough to leave you more tired than when your head hit the pillow.
Once out of earshot, you return the page while logging into the electronic medical records. Your foggy mind requires 4 separate attempts to get your password correct (which ex-girlfriend did you change it to this time?).
Mrs. Smith is hypertensive to 185/110 and is not due for any blood pressure medication.
Like the choose-your-own-adventure novels popular at elementary school book fairs in the 1990s, your choice in this moment can have a profound impact on your story.
Which of the following doors do you choose?
Door number 1: Give the 5mg Amlodipine scheduled for 6 am now.
The laziest of options, it allows you to put in a simple communication order and attempt to return to sleep before the glare of the computer screen further throws off your circadian rhythm and depletes your scant reserve of melatonin irreparably.
You glance at the vitals trend over the past week and quickly determine the primary team has been slacking. This woman's antihypertensive management is in need of some TLC.
Door number 2: Shoot some IV Labetalol into her peripheral line.
Knock out that acute hypertension, and get the nurses off your back until she gets her morning medication. By then, you'll be long gone, to the comfort of your own bed and some artificial melatonin induced ZZZs.
Door number 3: Increase the AM Amlodipine, and add a STAT dose of Lisinopril.
If you remember one thing from the diagrams of the loops of Henle and dark haze of boredom that were medical school nephrology lectures, it was to increase current anti-hypertensives prior to adding another agent.
The melatonin is really beginning to fade now, and your mind gains a level of clarity only owls should have at 4 am. Amlodipine will not cause any noticeable change to the blood pressure for at least a day.
You dive deeper into her chart and realize that, due to the previous sepsis-induced AKI, this diabetic's ACE-inhibitor was held by the ICU team. Now that she has been transferred to the medicine floors, and her creatinine has returned to baseline, time to protect those glomeruli!
With career ambitions set upon outpatient physiatric practice and a possible sports medicine fellowship, the ins and outs of blood pressure management may not seem sexy.
That is what the primary care doctor is for, am I right?
You could choose door number 1 or door number 2, and push the responsibility and decision making off to another sleep-deprived intern.
You could glide through your intern year, leaving the medical decisions up to the budding nephrologists and cardiologists who sat at rapt attention while soaking up every detail about sodium potassium channels while you played Candy Crush in the half-empty lecture hall. At least you bothered to show up to class.
Or you could try door number 3.
Behind every door is the eventual end of intern year, and the start of what you actually signed up for: "actual residency."
Behind every door is a PGY2, most of whom will be responsible for call shifts at an inpatient rehabilitation hospital. Most will be alone, truly alone in the hospital for the first time.
How will you handle that?
How will you respond to the late-night calls for hypertension, hyperglycemia or uncontrolled pain when the patient does not have a peripheral line in and there is no senior resident to make the important decisions for you.
As physiatrists, we integrate multiple specialties of medicine together to not simply add years to a patient's life, but rather to add life to their years. We treat patients, not diagnoses.
It is the lessons you learn in intern year, on the nights when your triceps ache from performing CPR for the third time and you have not gotten non-supplement induced rest in weeks that you will draw upon when it is your turn to make the decisions, when it is your team to be the code leader.
Which door do you choose?
What I wish I knew during intern year:
PGY1 to PGY2 transition:
Dear colleagues, you made it!
After 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school, 2 sets of board exams, countless interviews, sleepless nights, and amazing life experiences, it's official—you're an intern.
This realization is likely met with a mix of emotions. The stress of your first call shift. The buzz of a new city. The uncertainty of your first code. The excitement of finally being called 'doctor.' No matter the structure of your preliminary or transitional year, the next 12 months will be filled with growth.
One of the biggest challenges of intern year is the feeling of limbo. You are not a medical student anymore, but it is easy to feel distanced from your ultimate goal of a fulfilling career in physical medicine and rehabilitation. Thirty-years ago the Resident Physician Council (now Physiatrist in Training Council) was founded to provide representation and leadership for resident physiatrists within the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. As such, the PHiT board would like to welcome you to this next phase of your career development!
We encourage you to engage with the Academy throughout the year, build a strong foundation for your future training, and enjoy every step of the process. Below are some quick tips and resources to achieve these goals:
Proclaim it with authority: I am a physiatrist! Odds are that last year during your interviews, you spoke highly of your love for patient care and focus on function. Now, let your actions lead the way. Be an advocate for our specialty. Many of your staff, co-residents, and medical students will have limited exposure to PM&R. Take this advice from Stephanie Tow, MD, PGY-6 and current pediatrics fellow at the University of Colorado/Children's Hospital of Colorado:
"Teach others in your intern year program about PM&R when opportunities arise! There are still many physicians who don't fully understand the values of PM&R and what we do, and it's important to help them understand when they should involve the PM&R specialty in their patients' care. I used to carry an 'Intro to the PM&R' specialty PowerPoint in my email, and whenever I found an opportunity to teach someone about our specialty, I would whip it out and go through it quickly to give them an overview."
As a physiatrist you will be valued in your preliminary/intern year for your unique perspective on patient care. Take advantage of opportunities such as morning reports to discuss wound care or issues related to neurogenic bladder. Volunteer to present at the noon conference on the latest physical activity guidelines, or give a presentation on ICU acquired weakness and the latest research on early mobilization during your critical care month. Embrace your identity as a physiatrist from day one of orientation.
Stay positive. We all have the same thoughts at one point or another during internship, "I just need to survive this year." It is easy to look ahead of intern year, but always remember that this is your year to establish a foundation of knowledge for success during R2 year and beyond. Your early inpatient rehab rotations will rely heavily on your ability to assess common issues such as management of chest pain, UTI, pneumonia, CHF/COPD, etc.
One of our Academy goals is to establish physiatrists as essential medical leaders integrated early and throughout the continuum of care for patients with neuromusculoskeletal and disabling conditions. As such, many residency programs are taking on increasingly more medically-complex patients such as LVADs, transplants, and cancer rehabilitation. Many of your patients will be coming out of extended ICU stays. Put in your work now so you when you pick up the phone at 3 am and the nurse is telling you about your patient with new-onset hemiparesis and slurred speech, you know how to handle the situation with confidence.
Take your boards early! Preferably in the first 3-6 months after starting your internship. Step 3 and Level 3 are comprehensive exams and the longer you wait, the further you will be from certain subjects like OB-GYN and pediatrics. The tests do take preparation, but bite the bullet and start on your Certification Qbank of choice early. Don't reinvent the wheel. Stick to the same strategies that brought you success for Step 2/Level 2, from my experience as the material was grossly similar. Even though this makes for more work up-front in the year, you will free up a lot of stress and additional time to dedicate to the finer details of clinical practice as the year progresses.
As noted above, your focus for the year is to establish the fundamentals in order to hit the ground running as an R2. However, we at the PHiT Council want you to know that we are here to support you through this transition. There are many ways to connect with AAPM&R during your intern year, whether through social media, attending the Annual Assembly in San Antonio, or by maintaining your membership in order to access the incredible resources at www.aapmr.org.
Social Media:
AAPM&R is active across many platforms including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Also be sure to visit pmrismorethan.org (or via Facebook and Twitter) to learn more about the stories from patients, family members, and physiatrists who work to improve lives and function while creating unity in our specialty. Post and engage with other physiatrists throughout the year using the hashtag #pmrismorethan across all social media platforms
Maintain Membership:
Even as an intern there are numerous resources at www.aapmr.org that can help you stay connected. You can find the resident membership application here! This will enroll you in the resident newsletter to help you stay in the loop on topics directly related to resident education and advocacy, but you will also gain access to several key resources on the AAPM&R website and beyond.
These resources include PhyzForum, a discussion board for various physiatric topics and communities based on clinical and practice needs and or based on identity. Browsing these forums throughout the year can help you keep a pulse on emerging issues in PM&R from those physicians on the front lines.
Also check out PM&R Knowledge NOW®. The collection of articles here has been developed over the last several years and is an incredible place to build your knowledge in fundamental topics related to PM&R. Do you have a passion for a topic that is missing? Volunteer to write a review to be added to the database. This is an incredible way to build your CV and contribute to the field.
The latest news, webinars, and research are all highlighted on the www.aapmr.org website. And of course, membership also includes access to the PM&R Journal. Be sure to sign up as a resident member to take advantage of all these tremendous resources.
Attend the Annual Assembly:
This year's Annual Assembly will take place November 14-17 in San Antonio, TX. Attending the Assembly is the #1 way to network and engage with your future PM&R colleagues. Time is definitely at a premium during intern year, however many programs do have educational days set aside to allow you to attend and get a much-needed respite from the daily grind of internship. Attending the Assembly gives you a boost of energy to propel you throughout the rest of the year.
With my parting words of advice, I recommend 2 key purchases to maintain some semblance of nutrition in the midst of pizza and fried foods that will be inevitably given during noon conference:
Have a great year everyone! Remember all of the hard work and preparation that got you to this point. Take on the year with confidence and enjoy the journey.
Please be on the lookout for more PGY1 and resident newsletter updates throughout the year. We look forward to your future successes!

Banff is a small town located within Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada. Banff offers some of the most amazing alpine scenery in the world, making it a popular destination for mountain activities such as hiking, skiing, snowboarding and rock climbing. The chance of spotting wildlife in Banff, including bear and elk is very high. If you love nature and the great outdoors, you will LOVE Banff. This is a guide on things to do in Banff, places to stay, eat and other travel tips.
Things to do in Banff
Banff Gondola
The Banff Gondola takes you up 2300 feet and offers incredible views of Banff township and the surrounding mountains. It's open daily in the summer from 8:30 am until 8 or 9 pm. Tickets cost around $30 CAD. At the top of Sulfur Mountain, you will find an interpretive walk, unbeatable views of the area and you may even spot wildlife if you're lucky.
Banff Hot Springs
Located up Sulpher Mountain, overlooking Rundle Mountains and Banff National Parks spectacular alpine scenery. The Banff hot springs are a great place to relax after a day of hiking or skiing. The hot springs are open year-round and cost around $8CAD. This is one of the most popular things to do in Banff, so don't expect to have the hot springs to yourself.
Drive up Mount Norquay
Yet another place in Banff offering stunning views, and a high chance of spotting wildlife. In the winter you can ski at Mount Norquay.
Visit Lake Minnewanka
Lake Minnewanka is one of the largest lakes in the rocky mountains. You can take an interpretive boat tour around Lake Minnewanka, or you can hire your own boat and go cliff jumping – an experience I will never forget. Lake Minnewanka is also home to hiking and mountain biking trail around the northern shore of the lake, as well as six backcountry camping sites for the extra adventurous visitors to Banff. The lake is made from a dam that was built in 1941 which flooded the resort village of Minnewanka Landing, and the submerged townsite is now popular with scuba divers.
Banff is renowned for its nightlife. Some popular clubs include Dancing Sasquatch, Aurora and Hoodoo.
Walk around Banff Town
The town of Banff is filled with restaurants, cafes and shops, in particular, souvenir shops. You could easily spend a full day or more walking around the town, getting a taste for all it has to offer.
Explore Bow River and Bow Falls
Bow Falls is within walking distance from downtown Banff. You could easily spend a few hours exploring the Bow River and admiring the falls. Visiting the Bow River and Bow Falls is one of the free things to do in Banff.
Explore Vermilion Lakes
This is a great thing to do in Banff because it is within walking distance from Banff Town. The Vermillion lakes are a great place to get a photo of the lake with Rundle Mountain in the background.
Visit Johnstons Canyon
Half an hour (driving) out of Banff, along the Bow Valley Parkway, is Johnstons Canyon, an impressive canyon and series of waterfalls. This trail is suitable for families and all fitness types.
Visit the Banff Museum
A great free thing to do in Banff is visiting the museum. Here you will find stuffed animals such as moose, bears, foxes and birds. It's Canada's oldest natural history museum, built-in 1903.
Check out the Cave and Basin Historic Site
The Cave and Basin National Historic Site is the birthplace of the Canadian National Parks system, which started with Banff National Park in 1885. You can choose from a variety of cave tours, including Saturday night lantern tours, or explore the historic site on your own. The site features interactive exhibits, mineral pools where you can feel the warm water coming from the ground, walks and boardwalks through the caves and nearby woods and marshes, plus a gift shop and a snack bar.
Hike or bike in Banff
There are so many hiking and biking trails to choose from in Banff. I suggest visiting the visitor centre to find out the best trail for you – based on your fitness level and time.
Explore Lake Louise
Located 40 minutes from Banff is the picturesque town of Lake Louise. See more things to do in Lake Louise here.
See The Ultimate Banff Itinerary – Four Iconic Parks in Five Days
Things to do in Banff in Summer
One of the best things to do in Banff is hiking, there are endless hiking trails with views of electric blue glacier-fed lakes, rocky mountains in every direction and if your lucky, wildlife. I suggest visiting the visitor centre to find out the best trail for you – based on your fitness level and time.
Some hiking trails in Banff
Tunnel Mountain – The trailhead for Tunnel Mountain is located on the outskirts of Banff town so you could walk from downtown. The views from the top are amazing and totally worth the effort.
Johnstons Canyon/ Inkpots, located along the Bow Valley Parkway – Waterfalls meet narrow stone gorges in this beautiful and easy hike, which is perfect for solo hikers and groups alike. There are a few different options for this hike, including a short version that takes hikers right up to the first set of falls, or the longer version that extends all the way to the "Ink Pots," a colourful phenomenon that occurs in some natural pools in Banff National Park.
Distance: 2.7 to 5.8 km
Fairview Lookout and Fairview Peak in Lake Louise – I lived in Lake Louise for 2 years and this was my favourite hiking trail. For families and those looking for a shorter trail, visit Fairview lookout. For those looking for an epic adventure, and challenge, I recommend Fairview Peak. The views are incredible.
Moraine Lake Trail – Lake Louise – The picturesque image of snow-capped, rocky mountains reflecting off a teal-glue glacial lake is one of the most iconic sights of Banff National Park. Moraine Lake is the name of that famous scene. Needless to say, the Moraine Lake "rockpile" is not only an Instagram-famous spot, but it's also one of the best hikes in Banff National Park.
Rocky Mountain Legacy Trail – This is a longer trail for those with a good level of fitness. The trail starts in Banff and leads to Canmore, covering 22 kilometres. This is a paved and popular trail amongst cyclists and hikers. The trail is a great way to see the Canadian Rockies, with many scenic viewpoints along the way.
**For more information on hiking trails, visit the visitor centre and talk to a park ranger.
Whitewater rafting
Banff National Park is a perfect destination to go white water rafting due to the surrounding scenery and flowing glacier-fed rivers. You can choose a gentle scenic float trip or an adrenaline-pumping Class IV rapids on a Horseshoe Canyon trip. Be warned, even in Summer in Banff, the water is cold.
Explore Lake Minnewanka
Summer is the perfect time to explore Lake Minnewanka – as previously mentioned.
Mountain biking
The Rocky Mountains surrounding Banff are popular for mountain biking (strictly for the daredevils).
Hire a canoe on Lake Louise or Moraine Lake for a unique experience.
Horseback riding
If you don't feel like hiking, you can see just as much on horseback. There are several horseriding tours in Banff and Lake Louise.
Things to do in Banff winter
You can easily access 3 ski areas from Banff; Lake Louise, Sunshine Village and Mount Norway, listed in order of preference. If you do visit Banff in the winter, skiing and snowboarding is something you must try!
I led snowshoe tours through this area for a winter season (13/14). Snowshoeing is always alot of fun, and an adventurous and a great way to explore in the winter. Read more about my job as a tour guide. Some of my favourite snowshoeing adventures included Johnstons Canyon (Bow Valley Parkway), Saddleback Peak (Lake Louise), Lake Agnes(Lake Louise) and Fairview Lookout (Lake Louise).
Ice Skating
Nothing beats ice skating in the fresh air on a frozen lake, pond or river. In Banff, you can ice skate Downtown in the rink at Banff High School and on the Bow River… both for FREE, how good is that.
Cross Country Skiing
Not as much fun as downhill skiing, but a great way to get around hiking trails and through the mountains.
Dog Sledding
A unique experience that shouldn't be missed in Banff is dog sledding.
Ice Climbing
Johnstons Canyon makes the perfect place to Ice Climb, but you must take a tour as it can be extremely dangerous.
With all these things to do in Banff, I am sure you will have plenty to do. If you are looking for more, you could take a road trip from Banff.

Road trips from Banff
Drive along the Bow Valley Parkway to Lake Louise
This is a scenic drive connecting Banff and Lake Louise, running parallel to the Trans Canada Highway. There is incredible scenery along the Bow Valley Parkway and a high chance of spotting wildlife.
Go on a Glacier Adventure along the Icefields Parkway
You can explore ancient glaciers just 90 minutes from Banff along the Icefields Parkway. The Columbia Icefields can be viewed from the base, or you can explore the glacier by bus. Athabasca Glacier is very impressive but also shrinking due to climate change, so get there quickly. You can continue along the Icefield Parkway all the way to Jasper if you would like.
Peyto Lake
A great road trip destination from Banff is Peyto Lake, a famous, picturesque Canadian Lake.
Yoho National Park
Just an hour from Banff is British Columbia's Yoho National Park, making for a scenic road trip from Banff. Yoho is a popular destination for campers and hikers. There are four campgrounds, two dozen peaks that exceed 3000 meters, and over 400 kilometres of hiking trails. Emerald Lake is the largest in the park, and one of the most popular. You can rent canoes at Emerald Lake, or head out on one of the several hiking trails. Lake O'Hara features a backcountry lodge for overnight hikers.
Weather in Banff
Summer: June August
Winter: December – February
Summer is Banff is unbeatable. With warm temperatures and sunlight until 11 o clock, summer is definitely the time to visit Banff. Winter can get really cold, however, if you are visiting to ski or snowboard this won't bother you. Spring is a great time to ski/snowboard.
Recommended trip length in Banff
I recommend staying in Banff for 4-7 Days. You could, however, easily spend months exploring the greater Banff region. If you have months to spare, I would stay as long as you can.
Getting to and around Banff
You can get to Banff from any location in Canada via Greyhound.
If you arrive via Calgary Airport… Brewster bus service takes you directly to Downtown Banff or your hotel. The drive from Calgary Airport to Banff takes close to 2 hours.
The town of Banff is relatively small and most things are within walking distance. There is also a public bus service connecting the town.
To get around the area with ease and explore destinations outside of Banff town, hiring a car is the best option.
During the winter, additional bus services run to help connect people to the Ski Areas. You can easily get a bus to Lake Louise Ski Area, Mount Norquay or Sunshine Village from downtown Banff.
Where to stay in Banff
For budget travellers, there are a number of hostels available in Banff:
Samesun hostel: Is centrally located, has a bar onsite and is my personal favourite. Samesun have a great activity program, free breakfast and in winter you can get a bus to the ski hill from the front door.
HI Banff: Is located 2 km out of town (however is easily accessible via public transport). I would avoid staying at the HI due to its location, but it does have a great activity program and ice climbing wall set up during winter.
YMCA Banff: I have never stayed in the YMCA but it is central and the cheapest hostel. The YMCA offers weekly and monthly rates.
Cheap Hotels in Banff
King Edward: Located in the centre of Banff and costing around $60 a night for a standard hotel room with a double bed – makes for a great bargain.
And if money isn't an object then I'd recommend a stay at the iconic Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel. The present 778 room hotel was built in 1928 and styled after a Scottish baronial castle. It's only minutes away from the hot springs too.
Search for accommodation options here.
Places to shop in Banff
Most of the shopping in Banff takes place on Banff Avenue. Shopping in Banff consists of a ridiculous amount of souvenir stores. I recommend avoiding the shops in Banff and spending your money on activities instead. In my opinion, photos are the best souvenirs.
Budget for Banff
$ – Expect to pay around $30 CAD for a bed in a hostel dorm room.
$$ – Expect to pay around $150 + CAD for a mid-range hotel room.
$$$ – Expect to pay $500 CAD for a luxury hotel room – the Fairmont Banff Spring Hotel.
Car hire starts from $60CAD per day in Banff.
You could survive on $15 per day for food if you cook your own meals. One meal in a restaurant will generally cost $15CAD+ – more for drinks. If you are eating out 3 times a day you will spend around $50CAD on food per day.
Currency in Banff
The currency used in Banff is CAD – Canadian Dollars. Some businesses also accept USD.
Travel Insurance for Banff
I recommend getting travel insurance before your trip to Banff. I recommend World Nomads. If you are still unsure if you should buy travel insurance or not, read this.
Safety in Banff
Before setting off on a hiking or outdoor adventure in Banff, be sure to check the weather forecast and be aware of wildlife in the area. Bears are common and it is recommended that hikers carry bear spray. In winter, be aware of the snow and avalanche forecast as the area has a high risk. Always tell someone where you are going and carry a means of communication.
Vaccinations for Banff
Check the Travel Doctor website to find out if you need any vaccinations for your trip to Banff.

Grace Ormonde shoot at The Ocean House
When Grace Ormonde Wedding Style magazine asked if we wanted to participate in their tabletop shoot at the Ocean House in Rhode Island, we said, "hell yes" and got together with Candice at Jubilee Events to devise a plan. Here are a few images by photographer Matthew Wagner that really showcase some of the details: our orchid chandelier and leaf-covered charger plates with blue delphinium accents
Thanks to Luxe Rentals for the mirrored table and ghost chairs, to Resource One linen for the incredible custom chair covers (seen in all their glory in the magazine spread) and to Posh Paperie for the menu cards.
GALA Weddings Magazine Feature
We're starting our new year with a blam over here at Datura – and the blam I speak of is an 11 page fashion spread & the COVER of GALA Weddings latest issue.
You just don't see enough features on winter weddings, so we got together with our good friends at Carla Ten Eyck Photography, Jubilee Events, The White Dress by the Shore and Dana Bartone & Company to bring you this crisp winter shoot at the Mayflower Inn and Spa in Washington, CT.
Needless to say, we were psyched when the good folks at GALA Weddings told us they were going to feature it — and double-psyched to hear that Carla's portrait was chosen for the cover. Since I don't want to spoil the surprise of seeing the images in print, I'm going to post a few that that are not shown in the magazine.
A huge thanks to Carla's team of Sara Code-Krall, Rebecca Hales and Greg Lewis for lending their considerable talents to this shoot (and this post)!
We'll start with bouquets. Cat and I each have a bouquet featured in the magazine but, as usual, we went a little overboard for this shoot and created three others. First up – a snowflake bouquet I created using several gauges of wire, rhinestones, cut-glass pendants & blue eryngium. It's worn around the finger – like a ring. I love that Sarah's crisp shots of the bouquet in the snow have a completely different feel than Carla's warm, romantic take in the center image.
Next is Cat's magnolia branch bouquet with dendrobium orchids and rhinestones – I love the smooth, rich orchids contrasting with the rough texture of the branch and the sparkle of the rhinestones.
The first image is Sara's and shows the luxurious black velvet handle, followed by Carla's portrait, where Beth's styling and Dana's hair and makeup really shine, and Rebecca tags in with a great overhead shot showing the sparkle of the rhinestones.
And for the last bouquet, I challenged myself to use nothing but fern, babies breath and carnations – things that are commonly considered run-of-the-mill flowers – to create a bouquet that no one would think of as run-of-the-mill. I accented these flowers with metallic silver angel-hair rolled into orbs. For Max, our groom, I made a simple boutonniere of white anemone, birch and lily grass. Carla shot these two portraits and Rebecca got the detail shots of the bouquet.
Here's a ring I made from birch bark, thistle and babies breath. I secretly thought it looked like a piece of sushi and hid it under a scarf, but Beth found it and rescued it. I also made this bracelet from lamb's ear and ornithogalum on a flexible wire base. The ring shot is Carla's, the bracelet is Sara's.
And finally a few images from our table. This was my first time collaborating with Candice from Jubilee on a creative proect. She brought some milk glass, I brought some flowers and we worked together seamlessly to create this tablescape. The magazine features many detail shots of her contribution to the work and here are some images, all by Carla, of the centerpiece.
There's lots more of this shoot to see – but to do that you'll have to run out and grab a copy of GALA Weddings magazine!
Costa Rica Day One – San Jose Flower Market
Our first day in Costa Rica was a huge adventure. While our trusty photographers, Carla Ten Eyck, Katie Slater and Sarah Code-Krall took off on an adventure with event planner extraordinnaire Candice Coppola of Jubilee Events, Magan Hunt of MMH Marketing and Jim Altieri of Vintage Cinema, Aryn and I headed to San Jose with our host Larry Savage of Stay In Costa Rica, Beth Chapman of The White Dress by the Shore and makeup artist DD Nickel. Beth and DD spent the day on one side of the city at a luxurious coffee bar conducting a casting call for models while Larry took us on a bumpy ride through the grittier side of town to the flower market.
As soon as we hit the street, Larry realized that he wasn't allowed to drive in the city on Mondays (something about the last number on his license plate being wrong. Don't ask me). So we zipped into a parking lot, bribed the guard to let us leave the car and then grabbed a taxi downtown. Our first stop was a pretty average looking spot – a lot like a New York City florist, buckets of flowers, nice and neat. We grabbed a few things while Aryn wielded the camera:
Lots of gorgeous and inexpensive tropicals, but we were looking for more white flowers (you'll see why eventually) – and Larry knew the right place to go (after he made a few phone calls and asked a bunch of folks for directions) – Mercado Centrale – a huge open air market filled with meats and fish, live chickens, geese, ducks, dried herbs
and ALL the way at the back of a building, a few flower stalls with just the right things for us.
Tomorrow is our first day of shooting. I'll try to grab some behind-the-scenes so I'll be up late turning those flowers into bouquets…
Pura Vida!

My New Year's resolutions take the usual form of promising to go to the gym, or to watch what I eat, or to be ridiculously positive in my outlook on life. But, for this new year I'm planning on another form of mindfulness - minding my Ps and Qs.
Mind your Ps and Qs is an old expression in English that means to mind your manners, or to be on your best behaviour in the company of other people. And it's usually thought of as a reminder to be careful with the way you speak.
So, if for example your auntie was heading off to Buckingham Palace to meet the Queen (the lady, not the rock band), someone might call out, "Mind your Ps and Qs, dear", as she was being waved out the door. The good advice being don't drop your aitches, don't slur your words, say "Really?", not "What?"; in other words, talk posh.

A Guide to Negotiating
The car buying process can be a bit stressful, and the entire ordeal culminates into one moment: the negotiation. Going back and forth over money can be a pain, especially when you don't know what you're doing. Salespeople have lots of experience selling cars, and it's unlikely you'll reach their skill level. However, if you learn some helpful tips, you can at least look out for yourself and potentially save a chunk of cash.
Before you decide to go shopping at a used car dealership in Albany, New York, take a look at our guide below. It could ultimately save you some time and money…
Do Your Homework
If you fail to do anything else, at least make sure that you've done some extensive research prior to making a purchase. You should initially be relying on a pair of figures: what the dealer paid for the vehicle (which you can find via a New Car Price Report) and what competitors (whether dealerships or websites) are selling the vehicle for. These are the two most important numbers that you'll want to keep in mind. While a salesperson may try to push the MSRP or the monthly payment (even enticing you with what seems like a lucrative discount), don't give in. Rely on your research to establish a fair asking price.
To jack up the price a bit, a salesperson could also secretly divide the vehicle's price, the trade-in value, and the financing terms into monthly payments. As ConsumerReports.com describes, this would give the dealership "too much latitude to give you a tempting price in one area while more than making up for it in another." How do you combat this from happening? Only negotiate one price at a time. It may be more of a hassle and will likely take longer, but it will ultimately save you plenty of money.
By negotiating each fee individually, you could be presenting yourself with an interesting negotiating tactic. Perhaps a salesman will be encouraged at the potential to earn some money towards the end of the deal, and he'll concede a bit on the price if you're willing to concede on the financing rate. Remember that you've done your homework and you've determined a fair price for the vehicle. The dealership will still find ways to come away as winners, and you'll want to make sure that the financing rate (or any fee) doesn't contradict your figure.
Know How to Negotiate
When you begin haggling over a price, you'll want to make a list of things clear to your salesperson (via Consumer Reports): you've already examined and test drove your desired vehicle, you know the price for the trim and options you want and you've already determined how much money you want to pay. To further emphasis your role in these negotiations, also make it explicitly clear that you'll purchase the vehicle if the dealership or salesperson meets your demands. Otherwise, you'll continue shopping elsewhere.
Throughout the entire negotiating process, remember to stay cool and reasonable. Being argumentative won't work towards your benefit, and a hostile conversation could lead to you and the salesman veering off topic. If you come off as sort of crazy, the salesperson may try to capitalize and squeeze as much money out of you as possible. If you're calm, you can clearly explain what you're seeking.
You'll want to start any price negotiations by suggesting your lowest offer, and you don't want to reveal how high you're willing to go. It works to your advantage to have a salesperson work off the lower figure, as opposed to "cutting the price" on the higher figures. Remember that you're not seeking the lowest price possible; you're seeking a price that falls within your predetermined range. Keep this figure in mind as you're negotiating.
After all of this, a salesperson may still stand their ground, refusing to give in. In this situation, you can show your hand a bit and refer to the numbers you were using as a guide. However, you shouldn't reveal what the other dealerships are offering the vehicle for, as this could limit how low the salesperson is willing to go. If they're still unwilling, do what you promised to do at the beginning: move on.
Follow Up
As Jason Lancaster, the President of Spork Marketing, told Forbes.com, just because a salesperson rejected your offer, it doesn't mean they won't eventually accept. You're doing no harm by walking way from negotiations if the dealership refuses to come down to your asking price. This also doesn't mean it's the end of negotiations.
Lancaster suggests calling the dealership at very specific times, making it clear that you'll immediately purchase the car if they meet your price. If you call right before closing time on a weekend night, the manager may be willing to meet your price as the dealership looks to get in on one more deal. The last day of the month is also a good time to call, as some dealerships may be looking to reach their monthly expectations. If you're offer is fair, a manager may be enticed to go through with it. Finally, a day after terrible weather is a good time to call back. Snow or rain can impact car sales, as no buyer wants to get soaked while they look for a new vehicle. A lack of sales on one day may mean they'll relent on another.
Finally, Lancaster suggests trying this method at multiple dealerships. It may not work every time, but there's a good chance that you'll eventually get a dealership to bite.
Remember that the dealerships won't be doing you many favors, so there's no reason to go easy on them. If you have a price or budget in mind, stick to your guns. If the price is reasonable, the dealership will (probably) ease up eventually. If the dealership doesn't like your offer, then no big deal. You can move on to another dealership and see if your offer will work there.
One place where you're assured good prices is at DePaula Chevrolet in Albany, New York. There helpful staff will happily get you in a new car, and you should be cruising in your new ride in no time.

HAMILTON — In a training camp in which Johnny Manziel's mere presence dwarfs everything else, Abdul Kanneh just may wind up having a bigger impact on how the season plays out for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
At the moment, Manziel is the object of almost all of the media attention in camp despite the fact that he currently sits firmly behind Jeremiah Masoli in head coach June Jones' pecking order. That could change at any moment but even Manziel conceded he has a lot of catching up to do with a guy who has been in the CFL for five years before this one.
Kanneh, a former all-star, is a year into his tenure in Hamilton, having signed as a free agent a year ago February from Ottawa, but he's still looking to make his mark on this team.
Injuries, first one in training camp and then another when he came back after missing the first four games, cost him all but seven games in 2017.
When the defensive back did return for the final six, it was to a team that was pretty much buried courtesy of an 0-8 start. The Ticats gamely tried to make up for the poor start but the damage was too deep despite winning six of their final 10.
Kanneh first suffered a hip flexor in training camp. When he returned in Week 5 to that forgettable 60-1 loss to Calgary, he didn't even last a half before injuring his elbow.
"That was a trash season," Kanneh said Thursday when asked to describe his 2017. "It's in the trash can now."
Somewhat surprisingly neither injury was at the top of Kanneh's list for worst part of 2017, however.
"Honestly, it wasn't even the injuries. It was just us losing," he said. "I'm a team competitor. Me not being out there — it's part of the game to get hurt. It was more just losing as a team. I don't like that. I feel we can always do better. That's what hurt me the most. Us going 0-8, not the injuries."
Kanneh brightens when asked about this year's camp.
"I'm actually participating this year so it's a lot of fun," he said. "I'm having a great time."
Kanneh actually only played one game at halfback, where he is slated to line up this year.
A former all-star corner, Kanneh lined up at SAM linebacker, the strong side linebacker, for the bulk of his curtailed first season with the Tabbies. He looks like he'll be back at halfback this year, but it really doesn't matter to the London, England born Kanneh.
"I am an all-star so I can play wherever,' Kanneh said, still brimming with confidence. "That was no problem for me. I just came out here to help the team. If I had to play defensive end or somewhere on the D-line, I would do it.
"I can do it all in this league," he said. "Whatever coach wants me to do, he knows he's going to have a competitor to do it. I will go all the way until the whistle is done."
As it stands now, Kanneh will likely line up in a secondary that returns rookie sensation Richard Leornard at one halfback spot and himself at the other. Don Unamba returns after a strong year at corner as does Courtney Stephen at safety.
But there are no shortage of options for the Ticats in the secondary.
"We got Demond Washington, Don Unamba, we got Mariel Cooper, we got D.J. May, we got Courtney Stephens," Kanneh said, listing off the guys he has been lined up with. "We got guys who can cover anybody in this league and as a defence and a defensive staff I feel we are comfortable playing anyone anywhere. It's just whoever gets the chance to shine,
Kanneh and the rest of the defence have had to adjust to a third defensive coordinator in two years in veteran NFL man Jerry Glanville, but to hear Kanneh tell it, there's not much of an adjustment at all.
"He brought in his own philosophy, but he kept it simple," Kanneh said. "His defence is not technical. It's not rocket science. It's straight-forward: run fast, get to the ball, beat your block and hit as hard as you can and you are going to win. That is what we have been trying to do out here."
Kanneh is just happy to be healthy enough to be a part of it again.
And as for all that attention being heaped on Johnny Football, well, Kanneh and the rest know it can't last forever.
"We don't care," Kanneh said. "That is for the media to decide. The media likes Johnny so they can have Johnny. They don't have to talk about us but we'll make our noise when the lights come on. When the lights come on they are going to see us. They can't run from us.
"They can focus on Johnny all they want right now but when the season starts just know that 24 other guys are going to be out there that is coming to take off heads."
Ticats head coach June Jones hasn't given this a ton of thought, he will admit, but once those pre-season games start he knows which quarterback he'll be starting.
And it won't be the guy garnering all the attention.
"I'd like Jeremiah (Masoli) to get a score the first time down and then get him out of the game," Jones said of that first game against Toronto at Tim Hortons Field on June 1. "That is what I would like to do. Then go on number of reps from there on for the other guys."
And the second game in Montreal a week later?
"Probably the same thing," Jones said. "Jeremiah would go a little bit more and judge the reps on who the next guy in is."

Being a company that is genuinely interested in the success of the companies that we work with, we would like to share more tips that will help you to get the most out of the incoming calls reports that we provide.
So you started to receive our reports, to explore the statistics and to invest your money in truly effective sources that convert better than the others. You are getting more valid calls from potential customers as a result. What's next?
The next logical step is to make your call center convert better. The way your dispatchers communicate with your potential customers is the factor that has the strongest impact on your conversion and, as a result – your income.
Remember – you are always welcome to contact AddSource to get your dispatchers' functionality examined by the experts!
The following factors matter most:
- How the dispatcher presents him/herself
- Dispatcher's level of confidence
- The duration of the phone call
What Should You Do?
Use the recorded phone calls to find out how each one of your employees starts the conversations. They should speak clearly and speak to the point. Imagine yourself that you are the client and think whether what you hear sounds convincing to you.
If some of your dispatchers don't, let them hear the conversation, explain them what they should change and make (unexpected) phone calls simulations. A good dispatcher sounds friendly and confident at the same time. Would you trust a person who doesn't know what he is talking about or sounds hostile? Neither would your clients.
The longer a conversation lasts, the higher is the probability that a deal will be closed. It will make the called feel more committed to your company, so every second matters. Instruct your dispatchers to keep the customer on the line by providing profound answers. If you are not sure about the conclusions that you should draw from your calls recordings, feel free to contact us and consult with us now!

INDIANAPOLIS — The Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI) enables nursing research through the grants program administered by the STTI Foundation for Nursing. In July 2016, STTI awarded the following three grants, made possible by contributions to STTI Foundation for Nursing, to fund research projects:
Nurses' Customization of Physiologic Monitor Alarms in Intensive Care Units
Halley W. Ruppel MS, BSN
Grant Impact: This study intends to support nurses to customize alarms appropriately for their patients. The researcher will identify barriers and facilitators to alarm customization and determine what patterns or gaps exist, allowing her to pinpoint appropriate areas for interventions to enhance alarm customization practices. Appropriate customization of alarms may ultimately enhance patient safety by reducing non-actionable alarms, which contribute to alarm fatigue, and increase nurses' capacity to respond to alarms, so that critical patient events will not be missed.
The results, and future work building on the results, of this study will benefit patients, nurses, ICU staff, and hospital administrators. Patients, nurses, and other ICU staff will benefit from a safer, quieter ICU environment. Hospital administrators may be able to use the findings to develop meaningful alarm customization policies and demonstrate compliance with regulatory requirements. Finally, other researchers may benefit from and build on the research methods and study findings.
Funds provided by interest from a research endowment established at Sigma Theta Tau International Foundation for Nursing, with a donation by the Hugoton Foundation.
Conceptualizing Student Experiences of Psychological Safety in Simulation Through Grounded Theory
Carol T. Kostovich PhD, MSN Loyola University, Chicago
Grant Impact: This study represents the essential first step in the development of an empirically-derived instrument to measure students' perceptions of psychological safety during a simulation learning experience.
The Standards of Best Practice advocated by The International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL) emphasize the need to create a psychologically safe environment for students in a simulated setting to maximize student learning. To determine if this environment has been achieved, a psychometrically sound instrument to measure individual students' perceptions of psychological safety experienced during simulation must be used. However, no known instrument with established psychometric properties is available. This study aims to develop an instrument grounded in the experiences of the participants by discovering the processes at work in a psychologically safe simulation learning environment. Findings from this study will advance the science of simulation and support best practices in nursing education.
The Educational Assessment Nursing Research Grant is co-sponsored by ATI Nursing Education (ATI) with the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI).
Predicting NCLEX Failures Using Standardized Assessments DeAnna Jan Emory PhD, MSN University of Arkansas
Grant Impact: This study aims to increase the available nursing workforce by developing an assessment to help recognize at-risk students early in the nursing education program and allow instructors to intervene to avoid NCLEX failures. As the aging population increases, the growing demand for nurses has resulted in record numbers of applicants to programs of nursing. Enrollments are limited by an aging faculty workforce and viable clinical placements for students. The current passing percentages for NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN (the examinations for the licensing of US registered and practical nurses) are just 83.6 percent and 82.62 percent, respectively.
In response to the ongoing problem of NCLEX failures, nurse educators need valid and reliable tools to assist in early identification and intervention of those at risk. This study will seek to recognize measurable variables associated with NCLEX failures to benefit students, nurse educators, and society. The results of this study will enable early recognition and remediation to increase NCLEX success. With more successful graduates to care for a diverse and aged population, the nation as a whole will ultimately benefit.

RCBI News
National apprenticeship partnership expands
June 29, 2017
Companies in Indiana and Illinois have joined Apprenticeship Works, the Advanced Manufacturing Apprenticeship Partnership at the Robert C. Byrd Institute (RCBI).
Based in Indianapolis, Bowers Envelope, a division of SupremeX Inc., manufactures and distributes envelopes to commercial customers. Martin Engineering, based in Neponset, Ill., solves engineering problems in the bulk handling industry.
Apprenticeship Works currently serves manufacturers in nine states: Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.
Funded by the U.S. Department of Labor, Apprenticeship Works is RCBI's national apprenticeship partnership that is creating apprenticeships in 17 manufacturing occupations across the United States. The partnership works directly with manufacturers to establish and manage customized programs using RCBI's collaborative model to educate workers and bridge the skills gap in American manufacturing.
Companies that offer registered apprenticeship programs improve productivity and profitability, reduce turnover and attract better applicants. Apprenticeships offer employees the opportunity to earn and learn, improving skills while they are on the job.
"The apprenticeship program has turned my job into a career," said Jacob McNamee, a Tool and Die apprentice at Martin Engineering.
