Turn On The Light So I Can Hear - Teri Kanefield
The note said: I think this one will just do the job and stay out of trouble. She’s young but eager. Lucinda couldn’t possibly have any objections.
I wondered who Lucinda was. Feeling shaky, I refolded the note, replaced it on the desk, and returned to my chair.
I didn’t feel eager. I felt desperate. Maybe if I had pulled my hair up instead of letting it fall down my back, I would have looked older. I was of average height but so slender that my roommate caricatured me by drawing me as a tendril.
Mrs. Eakle walked back into the office, and I caught the pungent scent of her perfume. She wore a white blouse that looked as if it had been starched. It didn’t surprise me that Mrs. Eakle had written a note like that. She struck me as sharp, competent, and inflexible, the kind of secretary who told the boss what to do.
I opened my notebook and pretended to read, hoping that I looked the picture of innocence instead of like I’d just crossed the room to read something I wasn’t supposed to.
If Mrs. Eakle were a color, she’d be metallic silver, an iridescent shade you can’t mix yourself but have to buy ready-made. The color I had in mind was made with real fish scales.
The school district office was housed in a New England–style residence with plank floors probably built at least a hundred years ago, now converted to office space. The trim around the doors and windows was painted white, the floors were knotty and scuffed, and the chairs had straight ladder backs. The interior smelled of damp wood and lemon polish.
I turned a page of my notebook and reread the ad I had printed out the day before:
Part-time tutor and interpreter for a deaf student in a public high school. Job classified as classroom aide. Must have proficiency in sign language for the deaf, and proficiency in high school math and English. Contact Mr. Givens. Begins September. $18 hourly.
Sign language was the catch. The only thing I knew about sign language came from watching Children of a Lesser God. Well, I had five months to learn. Hadn’t I done things that were much harder?
Mr. Givens opened his office door. He was thin with rounded shoulders and a jacket that seemed a few sizes too large.
Mrs. Eakle handed him my résumé and her note.
Bretna, please come in, he said.
His office smelled of old coffee. His desk was dark wood without a single piece of paper or speck of dust. It was the kind of desk you’d expect to find in corporate executive offices, not a school district office.
I sat across from him and watched him read my résumé and Mrs. Eakle’s note.
Without looking up, he said, You have no teaching or tutoring experience?
He still didn’t look up. You’re an artist.
It wasn’t a question, but I responded: Yes.
Now he looked up, one of his eyebrows cocked higher than the other. I’d seen that look before, a look that said, You’re willing to admit a thing like that? Mr. Givens would be a murky tan: burnt umber mixed with a touch of Mars black and lots of titanium white—nondescript and lacking emotion.
Then he asked the question I dreaded: When did you learn sign language?
I have some deaf friends. They taught me. I haven’t signed for a while, so I’m rusty. I’ll take a refresher course this summer.
Fabricating a few friends seemed safest. If I invented a job or volunteer work, he could easily check. The evening before, studying a sign language book in the library, I’d taught myself to sign, My signing is rusty, finger-spelling rusty. If he tested me by signing something and expecting me to respond, I’d perform the sentence.
Why do you want this job? he asked.
I needed the money, that was for sure. But something else, too, drew me to the job.
I had a brush with deafness myself, I said. I lost most of my hearing when I was five. An operation helped, but I still have trouble in one ear. This time I was telling the truth.
We need someone who can tutor Alejandro in his academic subjects, he said, math, science, English.
Yeah. He’s in low-level classes. He said this flatly, as if unaware that he’d just said something insulting. Then he said, I can only offer a one-year contract.
That’s fine. With luck, I’d only need the job for a year.
Do you have any questions? he asked.
I wanted to know who Lucinda was. Instead, I asked, Can you tell me something about Alejandro?
He’s thirteen. He’ll be the only deaf student in the school.
I waited for him to say more—like why Alejandro wasn’t attending the prestigious school for the deaf in Boston. He drummed his fingers idly on the desk and remained silent, so I asked, Is he worried about being the only deaf kid in the school?
He’s in a program for the deaf now, housed in a regular high school. He really wants to be mainstreamed.
Is he a good lip-reader?
Oh yes, he said, perking up for the first time. Very good. He stood up and said, We’ll call you in a few days, after I’ve checked your references. His tone was off-hand, as if to say, You’ll do.
When I stood up, my knees trembled. Thank God that was over. I can lie when necessary, but I don’t like doing it.
I had to change buses in Harvard Square to get home, so I stopped at a thrift store to root around for vintage clothing. The week before, I’d found my interview outfit, a 1950s dress made of muted olive-green worsted wool with covered tab buttons and a flared box-pleated skirt. Today I found a chocolate-brown velvet hat with a wide oval brim. I tried it on, and liked it: A woman wearing that particular hat in 1945 would have meant business. The hat, still in mint condition, cost $3.99, so I bought it.
Back at our apartment, Janae was at the kitchen table, drinking blackberry tea so strong I could smell it from the entryway.
Fine, I said. I hadn’t told her much about the job, and I didn’t plan to tell her that I was hopelessly unqualified.
Janae and I first lived together in the dormitories at the Massachusetts College of Art, and since graduating, in our Kendall Square apartment. Janae’s real name was Jane. She wasn’t the only person to change her name in her first year of art school: Tammy Lou became Tamara, and Martina, who’d always been called Tina, said Marti suited her better. I considered my own name one of the few things my mother had done right.
Bretna, Janae said. You’re eccentric. She was looking at my hat.
You don’t like the hat? I asked. Then, recovering: How many cats do you have at your parents’ house?
Eighteen. Why?
I don’t think a person with eighteen cats should be calling other people eccentric.
She laughed and put the kettle on for more tea. Someone else answered our ad. She’s coming tomorrow at six.
Good. I hope she’s better than the last two.
The first person who came to interview for our spare room said she liked ferns and had a few dozen plants that needed to be protected from dry air, so she’d have humidifiers going at all times. The first thing she looked at in the apartment was the heater to evaluate whether the air would be moist enough for her ferns. I imagined a few dozen ferns—and the three of us—dripping with perspiration. The second person insisted on a strictly vegetarian household. Neither Janae nor I liked being told what to do.
This one’s name is Rosie Pym, Janae said. She sounded nice enough on the phone. Exuberant but nice.
Nope. She works for a place called Outdoor Adventures.
Outdoor Adventures? Maybe that means she’ll be gone a lot. I considered making a joke about how she might have to explain to a couple of hermits like us what an outdoor adventure was, but Janae had opened a book and started reading, so I pulled the latest issues of The Art Quarterly and Art World from my handbag and started reading. For the first time in three years, I wasn’t listed as a recipient of the Foundation for Sculpture fellowship. Was it a coincidence that at the same time, my sculptures stopped selling, or was I already a washed-up has-been? Whatever the cause, for the first time in three years, I needed a real job.
Late the following afternoon, my phone rang. The caller was Mrs. Eakle.
Congratulations, Bretna, she said crisply. You’ve been selected for the job.
Something about her use of the word selected made me think I’d been the only applicant. Great! I said. Thanks!
I take it you accept the job, she said.
Very good. We’ll send you a packet of forms to fill out. We look forward to seeing you in September.
Metallic silver, while coolly competent and confident, was rarely sincere.
Rosie Pym was startlingly pretty: glowing skin, sparkling eyes, a wide smile, a small upturned nose with a sweet sprinkling of freckles. She breezed into the loft, radiating joy and energy and enthusiasm. This place is great! she said. I love the exposed brick and beams, and real wood floors. And what could be better than a bakery downstairs?
Janae showed her around the loft.
Look at all this space! Rosie said.
We use ours for studio space, Janae said.
I’ll use mine for storage. I have hiking gear, rock climbing gear, camping equipment, skis, the works.
I sat on the couch, and Janae perched on a straight-backed chair.
So what do you do at Outdoor Adventures? I asked.
I’m a program director. Mostly I train the program instructors, but I also get to lead hiking and climbing groups. And I teach courses in ecology. It’s a great job. Imagine getting paid to go rock climbing and camping—things I want to do anyway!
Rosie’s unrestrained enthusiasm for camping and rock climbing made me feel vaguely uneasy. Something in her intensity and pitch seemed off.
I can go right up the side of a cliff, she said. With the right equipment of course.
Really? I said politely.
Rosie played with a lock of her hair, combing it with her fingers, tossing it back with a flick of her hand. Not too many people like whitewater rafting or survival camping, she said, but a lot of people like hiking and bike riding. How about you two? Do you like to hike or bike ride?
Janae and I looked at each other. Neither of us had a car and we both had bikes, but our walking and bike riding were entirely for the practical purpose of getting from one place in the city to another.
I like hiking downstairs to get a croissant on weekends, Janae said. I don’t mind climbing back up the stairs to eat in peace.
Rosie laughed. You’ll have to try it. You may like it.
I couldn’t think of any reason not to let Rosie move in. We needed someone else to help with the rent and utilities, and Rosie seemed nice enough. I gave a little shrug to show Janae that she was fine with me. Janae returned the look.
Later, after Rosie left, I said, What kind of animal?
Janae’s last boyfriend was a basset hound: droopy-eyed and affectionate, but stout, lazy, and stubborn.
Maybe she’s a boxer: a little skittish, but mostly friendly.
Or a monkey, I said, playful and enthusiastic.
She’s definitely over-the-top. I hope she doesn’t swing from the rafters.
Rosie did seem over-the-top, but it occurred to me that anyone listening to our conversation about boxers and monkeys would think Janae and I were the odd ones.
Rosie moved in the following evening. She said, Do you mind if I rearrange some of the furniture? This room could feel so much more intimate if we pull the furniture away from the walls and group it together.
Go ahead, I said, and watched as she pushed the furniture around until the arrangement suited her. As before, her exuberance made me vaguely uneasy, but I shrugged it off. After all, what’s wrong with unrestrained enthusiasm?
She moved some plants away from the window so we could see the sky and said, Don’t artists need to see nature for inspiration?
She didn’t seem to expect an answer, so I remained silent. Next she unpacked an espresso machine. The bakery downstairs closes at five, she said. So we’ll need this.
She made us lattes—decaf because it was evening—all the while chattering away. It turned out that Rosie was thirty-four and had worked for a journal at Harvard before landing her current job.
Both of my husbands were crazy, she said.
Were they always crazy? Janae asked.
I glanced up and saw that Rosie had missed the significance of the question.
They were, Rosie said, but I didn’t really notice it until after we were married. Both deteriorated after being married for a few years. One even tried to kill me.
Janae shot me a look. I had known Janae long enough now to guess exactly what she was thinking. She was thinking that if one of Rosie’s husbands had tried to kill her, there was probably a reason, and we may end up wanting to kill her, too. But I thought Rosie would at least cheer up our loft, which did seem gloomy at times. Besides, maybe her husbands had been crazy.
The classroom at the Deaf Association wasn’t a room at all. It was a space enclosed by the kind of movable panels used to create cubicles. Inside, four white, laminated tables formed a square. I sat on the side facing the portable chalkboard. Several people, who already seemed to know one another, whispered together. Chairs scraped. More people came into the room and sat at the table.
A man in his late twenties entered, wrote English on the board, and drew an X through the word. Then he wrote Voice and drew an X through it as well. He pretended to take both words from the board and throw them out the window. Students looked around and smiled.
Next he wrote Curtis and pointed to himself.
Curtis was large and bearish with a round face and curly hair. There was a slight squint to his eyes, as if he closely examined everything and missed very little.
He drew a stick-figure girl and made a sign, touching his thumb lightly to his jaw and stroking downward. His lips formed the word girl, and he indicated that everyone should imitate him. Feeling awkward, I stroked my jaw with my thumb and looked around. Others were doing the same. Curtis next drew a boy and taught us a sign similar to a boy gripping the visor of an imaginary baseball cap. After everyone imitated him, he drew a heart around the boy and girl, crossed his wrists, and held them against his chest in a sign that conjured affection. Love, he mouthed as the students imitated the sign.
He grinned a conspirator’s grin and drew a large diamond ring on the girl’s finger, and made the sign for marriage, a clasping of both hands into a tight bond. His hands then followed the contours of a swollen belly, and he made a sign as if cradling a baby in his arms.
He signed with the grace and purpose of a dancer or athlete. I sat up straighter in my chair and realized I was entirely enjoying the lesson.
Baby, his lips formed. Like everyone else, I imitated him, rocking an imaginary baby. On the chalkboard, Curtis drew a small boy standing with his parents. After another pregnancy and cradling motion, he drew a girl. In this nursery rhyme progression, the signs for sister, brother, mother, father, grandparents, and family followed easily.
When the chalkboard pictured an extended family of fourteen members, Curtis wrote, 15- minute break on the board. I was startled by whispers and scraping chairs. Having become accustomed to a silent classroom, I found this to be a strange reminder that the world was filled with noise.
In the reception area, a dark-haired girl wearing hearing aids and a T-shirt that declared Deaf Pride stood by the stack of books. A sign announced the required books for each course and the prices. The girl made change from a metal box.
I bought my American Sign Language textbook and a collection of essays called American Sign Language: The Language of the Deaf Community and stood off to the side, thumbing through the essays.
A telephone rang. A guy at the reception desk answered the phone and said hello in a surprisingly clear voice. I thought everyone who worked at the Deaf Association was deaf. I wandered over to the reception desk and waited until he hung up.
What’s happening? he asked me.
I was just wondering how long it takes to learn sign language.
After a year of classes, you should have the basics. Then you have to practice.
A year of classes? My heart thumped. How much will I learn over the summer?
You can get started, have some basic conversations, stuff like that. Why?
I steadied myself and said, I just wondered.
I was five years old, playing in the kitchen with my neighbor Kimmy, waiting for my mother to get off the telephone so we could ask permission to go outside. I went to the family room door every few minutes, peeked in, and saw that she was still on the phone.
What are you doing? Kimmy said.
To see if my mom’s still talking.
Next time I got up, Kimmy said, She’s still talking. And she’s closing cabinet doors.
I went to the door, and sure enough she was still on the phone, and just then was looking in a cabinet. You knew, I said. It seemed like a magic trick that Kimmy could sit in one room and know what was going on in the next.
My mother was always moving. She had the quick, nervous gestures of a hummingbird. Her hands twitched. Her legs jiggled. Even when she watched television, she was moving, folding laundry, or straightening a sewing basket. She had tranquilizers prescribed by the family doctor. In another century, people would have said she had a nervous condition. To me, my mother was a bewildering mystery.
One evening my mother sat me down at the table and said, Bretna, stand up. I stood up. She put her hand in front of her mouth and said something. I knew she was talking because I heard her mumbled voice, but without seeing her lips, I couldn’t understand a word. Then she uncovered her mouth and told me to sit down. I sat down.
Mrs. Conn’s right, my mother said. Mrs. Conn was my kindergarten teacher.
Sure is, agreed my father.
Maybe that’s why this child never pays any attention to anything, my mother said.
She took me to see Dr. Kutler, who poked inside my ear with an otoscope. He said, First we’re going to have to drain the ear. I watched his mouth and knew exactly what he said, but when he went on to explain what had caused the buildup of fluid, I couldn’t understand him. He picked up a long, needle-shaped metal instrument and held my shoulder to steady me.
No way was I going to let him put that needle into my ear. I pulled back and said, No!
Hold still! my mother said.
It’s okay, the doctor said. We’ll take care of it all in the hospital.
The next week, my mother drove me to the hospital. Two nurses took me into a white sharp-smelling room, dressed me in a loose white nightgown that tied in the back, and put me in a bed with railings on the sides.
I’m too big for a crib, I told them, but they laid me down anyway. I expected the nurse to give me a spoonful of something bitter to make me sleep, but instead a doctor came in wearing a watery-green smock. He fiddled with a machine that looked like a TV set, then put a black rubber mask over my nose and mouth. Take a deep breath, he said, like you’re going to blow up a balloon.
I held my breath as I’d been taught to do in the swimming pool. Again he said to breathe. I shook my head. One of the nurses gave my ribs a tickle, and I was forced to breathe the sweet, heavy fumes. When I woke up, I had a gauze bandage on my head, and when I tried to sit up, I felt dizzy. The doctor came and took the bandage off, and everything sounded magnified and close: footsteps on the tile floors, voices, the distant closing of doors.
The noise driving home was like something out of a nightmare. Every time a
Turn On the Light So I Can Hear from Teri Kanefield is both a wonderful portrayal of many of the issues surrounding deaf culture in a largely hearing world as well as a sort of (partial) coming of age story.Having a protagonist who straddles deaf culture (hearing impaired) and fully hearing brings a nuance to the events we see as she interacts with two very different extremes. She tutors a deaf student whose family has insisted he not embrace deaf culture and she also becomes involved with a deaf man who insists on a clear and distinct separation between hearing and non-hearing cultures. Watching these things play out is a large part of the enjoyment of the book.In some ways Bretna begins experiencing some coming-of-age moments as she reflects back to her dysfunctional family while experiencing all of these new and exciting events. It seems to me that the process is still ongoing, but then maybe we are all always coming of age throughout life since each "age" brings different pluses and minuses.Kanefield's writing is superb and makes the world come alive, particularly in the first part of the book. I think the descriptors become a little muted as the story develops as a way of contrasting the cultures, particularly the boundary areas of the cultures.I would highly recommend this to readers young and old (as well as in between) for both the wonderful writing and the portrayal of deaf culture and its place within society as a whole.

I have read a few books by Teri Kanefield. As alway her writing style just draws you in. I found myself getting lost in the book not wanting to put it down. I couldn't believe how vividly I could imagine the ASL symbols. This says a lot about Teris writing ability. She can make you feel like you are right there in the story. I look forward to reading more by Teri Kanefield.

I loved this book. I didn't stop reading from page one to the end. Normally I don't like jumping from the past to the present and back and forth over and over. But in this book it worked perfectly. I don't think the book would have worked any other way. It was a wonderful set of characters that I really enjoyed getting to know. The descriptive quality of the writer was wonderful. I could see the sculptures described in the book so clearly. Wish i could buy one. They sounded so beautiful. I learned a lot about the world the deaf live in and the hearing as well. And how each perceive the other. Just another form of prejudice we as humans have. And that we should not have. No one should be looked down upon for any reason. Just an absolutely wonderful book. I will need to read more from this author.

I received a copy of this book from the author via LibraryThing’s Member Giveaways in return for an honest review.For me, the plot line could have been tighter. Yes, Bretna is a starving artist, but what is her end objective? She obviously takes on the job for the $18/hour paycheck because bills are tight, but there is a real disconnect about what her plans are for when school ends.What the reader is given is a good chunk of a story that would be better if it were plumped out. The transitions within the story were sudden and jarring, and the story skidded to a sudden and unanticipated stop, leaving issues unresolved (Bretna/Alex/school, Bretna/Curtis, Bretna/herself).Within chapter changes were confusing. One moment Bretna is interpreting for Alex in the present, and in the next paragraph she’s narrating a scene from her past. SomeTHING needs to be used to distinguish between past and present narrative (e.g., italics for scenes of the past)What is the point of Rosie? I found her extremely irritating, and I don’t think she added anything to the story at all. The scene where Bretna sees Curtis while she’s out with Rosie chasing her on-again/off-again boyfriend could have been written differently for Bretna to make her observations and not to include Rosie and her melodrama.There is one very magical aspect of the story that I loved – Bretna’s way of describing people using color. For example, her description of her sign language instructor Curtis as “a reflective blue mixed with green, the color of a tropical ocean—cool but teeming with life and enormous depth” [Teri Kanefield. Turn On the Light So I Can Hear (Kindle Locations 291-292). Armon Books. Kindle Edition.]. I am a very visual reader who creates pictures in my head as I read, so having characters described in this way was fresh and wonderfully different.

Overview of NNPRFTC accreditation process
Hello – I am so pleased to join you today. I want to thank CHC, the Weitzman Institute, and the NCA project team for inviting me here to discuss accreditation and its relevance for postgraduate training programs. I am Candice Rettie, the Executive Director of the National Nurse Residency and Training Consortium, called the Consortium or NNPRFTC, for short.
A quick aside, the picture at the bottom of the slide is a recent graduating class from the NNPRFTC’s NP residency program.
So what is accreditation? I want to quickly differentiate between certification and accreditation. Certification refers to an individual’s qualifications or credentials. Accreditation refers to the determination of quality of a program or an institution. So, certification is individual and accreditation is institutional or programmatic. The Consortium offers programmatic accreditation – we focus on postgraduate NP training programs.
Definitions of Accreditation:
AAAHC: Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care: “Accreditation is an external, independent review of a health care delivery organization against nationally-accepted standards and its own policies, procedures, processes and outcomes.”
The US Secretary of Education determines that recognized accrediting organizations are reliable authorities as to the quality of … training provided by the institutions or programs they accredit. USDE recognition is important for training programs that require federally recognized accreditation, such as the US Dept of Veterans Affairs. The Consortium has set up its policies and procedures so that we can pursue USDoE recognition as soon as possible. First we have to have completed several accreditation reviews over the course of at least 18 months- 2 yr. Quickly, let’s run through what some of the USDoE requirements are , since they provided the basis for the development of our Standards.
We need to focus on trainee achievement and success – USDoE wants to see job placement rates of graduates
Fiscal and administrative capability
Trainees support services
Recruitment and admissions practices; curriculum calendar; catalogs, publications, marketing
USDoE requires an on-site review
Consistency n decision-making
Interim review of the program, at a minimum an annual headcount of trainees.
Through accreditation, organizations are able to further develop their programs by systematic self evaluation; identification of strengths and weaknesses; on-going critical development and refinement of the curriculum; and program enhancements that reflect the realities of challenging and changing practice environments.
Eligibility: in existence for 2y so July 15, 2017; 2 yr experience as accrediting organization? Jan 2018
Meeting eligibility requirements: all policies and procedures designed to be in compliance; working with USDE as we finalize some governance structures
(CHEA not an option– accredits academic programs and programs requiring academic affiliation; Consortium made academic affiliation recommended, but optional to accommodate FQHCs)
ANCC does not require on-site visit – one of the USDE requirements
Now it is time to focus on the Consortium Standards:
The NNPRFTC has developed 8 standards, with 68 elements. We use these standards to determine a program’s initial and continued accreditation status. They define the responsibilities of a program with regard to maintaining its adherence to the standards. The NNPRFTC standards were developed and are maintained through a formal review process and recognize the evolution of NP practice and training. The standards are applicable to all postgraduate NP training programs unless specifically noted as an exception.
In addition to being the foundation for accreditation, the standards provide programs with guidance on the requirements, structure, and content of the program, simultaneously allowing for programs to use innovation and creativity in their design to meet the goals and defined competencies.
Think of accreditation as part of the DNA of your program. In a very concrete way, accreditation can drive program development – Programs are always works in progress. The accreditation standards are unchanging, and the standards define the components of every program. However, while every program has the same core components of mission, curriculum, evaluation, etc, each one is unique.
There is a saying in instructional design: Design backwards, Implement forwards. So design ‘backwards’ from your mission – the mission is your starting and ending point. Use the standards to structure the components.
Then think about what your ‘final product’ – your trainee ‘’ will look like. How will they function – what will they do . How will they represent your field?
Then design evaluation measures that address the endpoint. Then create curriculum that address the endpoint. Make sure that the curriculum and evaluations are integrated and create feedback loops. Use that information in communicating with your audiences.
Now. I’d like to take you through the accreditation process.
The Consortium’s initial accreditation lasts for 3 years. We are considering extending continued accreditation for 5 years. It costs $10,000 and includes the costs of an on-site survey by NP experts and annual data management fees. The process generally takes about 10 months. Details about how to apply and informational documents can be found on our website: wwwnppostgradtraining.com.
We do have a required on-site peer review visit that occurs 7.5 months following submission of the Self Study.
You can download our Consortium FAQs, the Accreditation Fact Sheet, the Accreditation Standards, and our Self Study Guide. Technical assistance is available throughout the process for programs undergoing accreditation review. Accredited programs will be listed on our website.
Let’s run through this flow diagram of the accreditation process: (read slide).
Study looking at the impact of accreditation on the quality of healthcare. Published in 2011 by Alkhenizen and Shaw conducted a “systematic review of the literature to evaluate the impact of accreditation programs on the quality of healthcare services.” Conclusion: “There is consistent evidence that shows that accreditation programs improve the process of care provided by healthcare services.
CEPH (Council on Education for Public Health) points out that “accreditation serves multiple purposes for different constituents. In general, specialized accreditation attests to the quality of a training program that” provides intensive clinical training for a newly minted NP professional.
There are many stakeholders in this process – to list a few:
“For the public, accreditation promotes the health, safety and welfare of society by assuring competent public health professionals.
For prospective [trainees], accreditation serves a consumer protection purpose. It provides assurance that the program has been evaluated and has met accepted standards established by and with the profession.
For[ NPs], it involves practitioners in the establishment of standards and assures that educational requirements reflect the current training needs of the profession.
Finally, organizations that provide and support education, training, and professional advancement at every level benefit. Recruiting the best and the brightest becomes easier. Doors to funding open -- attracting and retaining competitive and noncompetitive awards becomes easier when there is a body of peer-reviewed, reliable and meaningful information supporting the wisdom of awarding monies to implement the mission, vision and objectives of the training organization.
For the governing organizations such as [ universities and hospitals, ] it provides a reliable basis for inter- and intra-institutional cooperative practices, including admissions and transfer of credit.
For the school or program, accreditation enhances its national reputation and represents peer recognition.”
Accreditation fosters a community of like-minded professionals and interested parties who are dedicated to excellence in NP practice and training.
Community creates a forum for sharing best practices, for working together to identify and address challenges. Life long learning and professional growth become implicit and explicit. In a supportive peer environment, innovation and creativity flourish.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spanish Guitar Music, 3 May 2011
The title of this CD "Spanish Guitar Music" has been widely used before and even this album has appeared many times through re issue, but it is the perfect title. This is a good introduction to the beauty, passion and atmosphere that is Spanish Guitar Music. True, the pieces are mostly familiar and for some long time fans of Spanish Guitar Music it does not break new ground. But it does have some of the best pieces and composers to represent this genre of Guitar music.This album has strong merit not only for its great repetoire of compositional choices but for its performance and sound. The sound is excellent. Williams has been famous for a "sqeaky clean" technique. This recording is no exception with little polution of mechanical noise in the performance. Instead every note is strongly defined.There has never been recordings of the Works of Granados like those on this release. These piano pieces sound magnificent in the hands of Williams. El Testamen de Amelia, a Traditional Catalan Folk song is beautiful. The opening Asturias and Tango by Issac Albeniz (transcribed by Segovia) is performed with seaming ease. The other Traditional catalan folk pieces La nit de nadal and El noy de la mare arranged by Miguel. Llobet are enchanting and there is a wonderful interpretation of the excerpts from The three cornered hat by Manuel de Falla. And Williams gives a great performance of Homenaje by the same Andalusian composer.All of the compositions and performances on this release are outstanding and this is an excellent collection of Spanish Guitar Music. There a is great atmosphere of spain and the whole project is very entertaining.

Joachim Anthoniszoon Wtewael (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈyːtəʋaːl]; also spelled Uytewael, which reflects better the pronunciation for English speakers) (1566 – 1 August 1638) was a Dutch Mannerist painter and draughtsman, as well as a highly successful flax merchant, and town councillor of Utrecht. Wtewael was one of the leading Dutch exponents of Northern Mannerism, and his distinctive and attractive style remained largely untouched by the naturalistic developments happening around him, "characterized by masterfully drawn, highly polished figures often set in capricious poses". Wtewael was trained in the style of late 16th-century Haarlem Mannerism and remained essentially faithful to it, despite painting well into the early period of Dutch Golden Age painting.

OFF 5TH Employee Reviews
Great Coworkers, Sloppy Administration.
Sales Associate (Former Employee) - Leesburg, VA - March 14, 2016
My coworkers were wonderful and workload was reasonable, but the administration and company leadership was awful. Three managers were fired at once and no replacements were lined up, we had at least seven temporary managers in 4 months.
twelve hour black friday shift with only thirty minute break, poor management
Sales Associate (Former Employee) - Springfield, VA - November 19, 2019
Learned to bey jewelry key holder & how to show jewelry right. Learned how to properly fold clothes to look nice. The gm gave me a jewelry key with out giving me a back ground check first which was needed. Almost made me eat in trouble by our security.
Sales Associate/Cashier (Current Employee) - Clarksburg, MD - December 17, 2016
The management was okay but they are still willing to listen. The work experience included learning how to do everything so sometimes you were the cashier or in the stock room or out as a sales associate.
A professional and stylish place to work
Sales Associate (Current Employee) - Rockville, MD - November 4, 2016
Before I started working for Saks Fifth Avenue Off Fifth I had no previous clothing retail experience. I now work as a sales associate in sunglasses and handbags. Working this position has taught me how to market the current popular name brands in both departments. Each day I spend my shifts cashiering and maintaining the proper display for each collection of merchandise.
Breaks, and weekly pay
Many scheduling errors
Cashier & Operations (Current Employee) - Rockville, MD - October 25, 2016
Overall, Saks is a great place to work. Fantastic, and easy to talk to managers. Coworkers are generous, and an excellent experience.
Retail Sales Associate (Current Employee) - Leesburg, VA - January 20, 2015
Great coworkers and atmosphere. In fact, the most enjoyable part of the job is probably the culture at Saks Off Fifth.

A pair of switches are connected between a radio transmission and receiving device and a compandor having a compressor and an expander for the radio communication between the base and hand sets, and the sound quality improvement function of the compandor is used in recording and reproducing an answer message and a telephone message. When the message is recorded in the message recording and reproducing device, the amplitude of the sound signals is compressed, and after the compressed message is reproduced from the message recording and reproducing device, the amplitude of the sound signals of the message is expanded to enable the improvement of the sound quality.
I claim: 1. A cordless answer phone for performing a conversation between a base set and at least one hand set by a radio signal, comprising:recording and reproducing means having a record terminal and a play terminal for recording and reproducing an answer message of a telephone subscriber and a telephone message input from a telephone subscriber line; means for compressing an amplitude of a sound signal of the answer message and the telephone message; means for expanding the amplitude of the sound signal of the answer message and the telephone message; radio transmitting and receiving means having a transmitting part and a receiving part for performing a radio connection between the base set and the at least one hand set; first switch means for selectively connecting the record terminal of the recording and reproducing means with either the compressing means or the transmitting part of the radio transmitting and receiving means; and second switch means for selectively connecting the play terminal of the recording and reproducing means with either the expanding means or the receiving part of the radio transmitting and receiving means. 2. The cordless answer phone of claim 1, wherein the base set includes the recording and reproducing means, the compressing means, the expanding means, the radio transmitting and receiving means, the first switch means and the second switch means, wherein the first switch means connects the compressing means with the record terminal of the recording and reproducing means when the messages from the telephone subscriber line and the base set are recorded, and connects the receiving part of the radio transmitting and receiving means with the record terminal of the recording and reproducing means when the messages from the hand set is recorded, and wherein the second switch means connects the expanding means with the play terminal of the recording and reproducing means when the message is sent out on the telephone subscriber line and the message is reproduced by the base set, and connects the transmitting part of the radio transmitting and receiving means with the record terminal of the recording and reproducing means when the message is reproduced by the hand set.
