New JSP Hard Hats are amazing

WOW!!! I received some samples of the new JSP hard hats from Robert Dunne of D.T. Cores & Company. I appreciate manufacturers that are forward thinking and can take a traditional item to a completely new level. It’s a modular system that allows buyers to design a hard hat to meet their specific work environment or needs. After I received and used the new JSP hard hat in the field for a few days, my traditional one got retired to the dumpster. I enjoy recommending a product when it impresses me the way one has. If you would like more information, you can find Robert’s LinkedIn profile and contact info at http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=20895973&locale=en_US&trk=tyah&trkInfo=tas%3Arobert%20dunne%2Cidx%3A1-1-1

Does WhatsApp show compliance with HIPAA requirements?

WhatsApp! Can life be imagined without this app on our mobile phones? When we have at the tip of our fingerprints an app with which we send out messages on everything from a family outing to an earthshattering political development day in and day out; why should we expect healthcare information to be excluded from WhatsApp messaging?One thing that is certain is that messaging about medical records on WhatsApp cannot be stopped. The fact that WhatsApp announced that it was introducing end-to-end…See More
