An Internship At The Aging And Disability Resource Center

Have you ever wondered how businesses can keep track of and manage many different records? For the past semester, I have been doing an internship at the Aging and Disability Resource Center of Door County. During my time there, I have seen the receptionist area full of records that will need to stored. Sometimes the amount of paperwork waiting to be stored seems overwhelming. For my final, I interviewed Wendy Schubert, the office receptionist at Door County Aging and Disability Resource Center. Our interview consists of the following eight questions: To get the interview started off, I first asked Wendy to identify the types of records and how they are stored. Her response was â€Å"we have physical records and electronic records. Our physical†¦show more content†¦You would locate the letter you want and inside that folder would be the client’s names, last name first, first name second and a middle initial. Then on the P drive are files that we choose to share with the public, that are labeled by location and subject.† Moving on to question three, I ask â€Å"what filing systems are used: alphabetical, subject, geographic?† Wendy answered, â€Å"Well, we mainly use alphabetical. As I said before, we use subject and location to label folders, but inside those folders are arranged in alphabetical order. The Social Assistant Management System (SAMs) account and SchedulePlus system can be set to quarry by first or last name, phone numbers, location, birthday and even poverty levels. Our hard copies that need to be scanned don’t have an order, we just put them in a folder and scan them when we can.† I then asked â€Å"what types of records management supplies are used and why? Are the current supplies adequate for usage?† Wendy thought for a second and then replied, â€Å"with our physical records we use hanging folders, folders, and folder labels, paper and pens. We’re transitioning to electronic files, but for now, yes the supplies is adequate.† For question five, I asked Wendy â€Å"what types of equipment is being used? Is the current equipment adequate for usage?† Wendy answered â€Å"we use computers, hard drives and space, a printer that can print, copy, fax, and scan, we also use filingShow MoreRelatedSocial Work : A Field Of Interest Essay1630 Words   |  7 Pagesschools, correctional facilities, community centers, child welfare agencies, employee assistance programs, and private practices.
