AT MY SCHOOL SINCE I WAS A
FRESHMAN AND I'LL BE A SENIOR

WANTED TO KNOW HOW TO BE A
MULTIMEDIA JOURNALIST AND NOT
JUST WRITE FOR THE PAPER.

PROFESSIONALS AND GOT AN INSIDE
LOOK AT WHAT IT WAS LIKE.

CROSS BLUE SHIELD WITH A HEALTH
FOCUS AND LET PEOPLE GO OUT AND
DO REPORTING IN THE COMMUNITY

WORKS FOR LIBIO HEALTH AND HE
ESSENTIALLY CALLS IT MODERN
HOUSE CALLS AND GOES FROM HOUSE
TO HOUSE AND TALKS TO HIS
CLIENTS AND HIS PATIENTS AND
HELPS THEM GET CARE WHERE THEY
ARE, BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE
CAN'T GET TO THE HOSPITAL OR
CLINIC BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST
PHYSICALLY UNABLE OR HAVE A
SUBSTANCE ABUSE OR MENTAL
ILLNESS AND SO HE GOES FROM
HOUSE TO HOUSE IN THIS CAR THAT
HE TAKES ALL HIS MEDICAL STUFF

BUT HIS DOCTOR WOULDN'T TAKE
HIM SERIOUSLY.
