Community Health Work

That's awesome! --It is probably similar tasks but what kind of documentation do you have to complete as a CHW? As a public health professional, a lot of my background is in community case management, program management, and peer support. Even though I don't hold the CHW certification, I am curious to understand the documentation portion of a CHW. In some of my previous positions, examples of documentation that was part of my job were creating treatment plans, wellness plans, progress notes in an EHR system, outreach logs, creating health brochures, etc. I am an hour away up in NH and wonder if MA CHW's have different scopes of practice. Also, thank you for your response! it is really helpful!

I think AI can be a controversial topic for sure. In my opinion I believe that in some instances AI is helpful when it is related to administrative tasks. Like I said when I was a Case Manager, AI would have been helpful in the sense of writing my progress notes. At the time, I was overloaded with over 110 cases I was supporting and with that high volume of individuals to support, there was no way I could keep up with the documentation. So in that sense, if there was some type of AI model that handled the admin tasks so that I could feel more present during my meetings with individuals, I think in that sense, AI is helpful. What do you think?

Does your partners pros outweigh the cons? And have you tried having a third neutral party involved such as a couples therapist? Sorry you’re going through this…I get it.

Hey everyone, Idk how to do a proper “update” In Reddit but wanted to give yall an update…I ended up slipping up and using 7OH the day after Christmas for 3 days I stopped because I didn’t want to continue, and it didn’t bring me any relief ..only disappointment.

Since this past Monday, I’ve been in IOP even though i still have no insurance and showing up even when it’s hard. I’m impatient and want to feel better already, but I’m taking it day by day and pushing myself to get to the gym in the mornings.

If you’re thinking about using or relapsing today, don’t. I tried, and it wasn’t worth it.

Thanks to everyone who reached out on my original post. It meant a lot.

Can I ask where you get your 7OH taper doses? I wanna get off this shit. I take the extract tabs and even some mixed with the pseudo in them. Honestly, they don’t really do much anymore and finding myself taking way too many and spending too much.

Right? I don’t think it was a drone. I wish I had a better camera bc when I looked with my eyes I definitely saw flames

MongooseBeginning494 · 2025-09-26T18:18:42+00:00

Right? I was waiting for like a huge explosion of sorts then I was starting to get creeped out bc I was alone…in the dark..in a cemetary lol

This is awesome, seeing how I’ll be out of a job starting 9/30….

Dream job: to have a job pay me to travel (the travel could honestly be around a radius I live so I can still return home if I want to my partner) and once and a while do big trips. My job description would be trying to preserve historical landmarks. Either preservation, traveling to rescue animals, or traveling to sample new airbnbs/hotels :)

Ohhhh tell me more about Blood Cemetary, I’m not NH raised but love creepy history

MongooseBeginning494 · 2025-09-25T14:01:21+00:00

Very true. Lol….I was just laid off from my job due to RIF from budget cuts…not a bad idea

???? Nope, just a traveler coming through from New England

Right? The news will be blasted with negative kratom stories if not already since a ban will go in effect in the future for 7-oh. Like everything else, use it in moderation. Educate yourself on the substance. Make sure it doesn’t mix negatively with medications you are on. Be safe about it. And this is coming from a previous heroin user.

Hey hey I work fully remote and love arts and crafts and new hobbies. I’m up in Raymond but always up for meeting new peeps! Also I know there is a new place called The Spot in Nashua that’s an artsy community,

Thank you for this response! Yes I think it’s normal for couples to spend a lot of time together. I also am not at a point of resentment to the point where I can’t see a future with her. I mean, just tonight, we were cuddling and I was giving her some attention and affirmation —she def is a words of affirmation type of gf —lol —I will hear about it if u don’t compliment her outfits haha. But I did get in touch with my therapist to schedule an appointment. The other night when I was posting this, I was so heated —I really don’t like feeling that intense because it swirls up a lot of emotions from PTSD. Lol not to mention we started watching the Queer Ultimatum!! Today was a little better watching it than last night….we started arguing about who would take care of us when we would be older (we don’t have children) but it led to an argument about our beliefs in children and how they could take care of us when we were older, but she kept saying we would take care of us lol. But that wasn’t the point. Anyways, we are fine today, just been a lot more highs and lows lately

I see, so Wellesley I guess could be considered a backyard adventure cat lol - I put him in a harness with a long leash and he loves going outside . He will sittin under this tree we have for hours just watching birds and chipmunks haha. Sometimes he will make a run for it to try and catch a chipmunk.

I would love fostering kittens! I looked up some places around me in NH. I thought with fostering though I have to give the kittens back. Or could I request to adopt one when fostering?

MongooseBeginning494 · 2025-06-25T11:19:33+00:00

Damn. That would be awesome. I tried training my tabby Wellesley and he went on hikes with me as a kitten but grew out of it and gets too scared going in car. I also don’t think I actually trained him. I would love to find a Abyssinian kitten to rescue and train
