Podcasts about Accommodation

As religious rights in the workplace gain new attention, a recent OPM memo broadening religious accommodations for federal employees could impact employers everywhere—at home and in the office. Essential Impacts for Employers: The federal memo expands religious accommodations, including remote work. The Supreme Court's 2023 Groff v. DeJoy ruling raised the “undue hardship” standard, making it more difficult for employers to deny religious accommodation requests. Accommodation requests are increasing, intersecting with remote work. These developments create new compliance challenges and potential legal risks for employers in the public and private sectors. Epstein Becker Green attorney Nancy Gunzenhauser Popper explains how to evaluate accommodation requests under the heightened standard and what the new federal memo could mean for your organization.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 11ú lá de mí Mheán Fómhair, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1972 bhí teannas ann idir na Gardaí agus an R.U.C. Ar an teorainn agus de bharr sin cheap siad nach mbeadh drong a fhuadaigh muc, sáinnithe. I 1999 tháinig sé amach go raibh feirmeoirí sa tír chun 1.7 billiúin punt a fháil faoi phlean nua don EU. I 2001 chuaigh óstán Grants I Ros Cré faoi athchóiriú agus bhí sé ar dhíol. Bhí 25 seomra leapa ann, bhí Kittys Tavern teach tábhairne agus bialann Lemon Tree a raibh a lán gradam acu. Bhí áiseanna comhdhála ann chomh maith do 600 duine. I 2008 rinne an Chlub GAA Burgess iarratas chuig comhairle contae Tiobraid Árann I gcóir cead pleanála I gcóir forbairt nua. Bhí siad ag iarradh áis dhá stór dá seomra gléasta le seomra traenáil, seomra do fhisiteiripe, seomra cruinnithe agus I bhfad níos mó san Aonach Urmhumhan. Sin The Vengaboys le We're Going To Ibiza – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1999. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1977 taifead David Bowie le Bing Crosby Merrie Olde Christmas lena hamhrán Peace On Earth – Little Drummer Boy. Chuaigh sé chuig uimhir a trí sa Bhreatain I 1982. I 1996 shiúil Noel Gallagher as Oasis leath slí tríd turas ceoil I Meiriceá tar éis a bhí troid aige lena deartháir Liam in óstán I North Carolina. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Scott Patterson I Meiriceá I 1958 agus rugadh rapálaí Ludacris I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1977 agus seo chuid de amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 11th of September, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1972: Strained relations between Gardaí and R.U.C in the border areas could mean that the pig smuggling gang which kidneapped a Dublin-born customs officer may not be caught. 1999: Irish farmers are set to get £1.7bn under the EU's Rural Development Plan. 2001 – Grants for sale in Roscrea, the Hotel had undergone a complete programme of refurbishment and was presented in excellent condition throughout. Accommodation comprises 25 ensuite guest bedrooms, "Kittys Tavern" lounge bar, and the award-winning "Lemon Tree restaurant".  The hotel offered a banquet and conference facility while accommodating up to 600 patrons.   2008 - BURGESS GAA Club applied to North Tipperary County Council seeking planning permission for a new development at their grounds. The club is seeking permission to construct a new two-storey extension to existing dressing rooms - comprising of training room, first aid, physiotherapy room, and relocated machinery shed at ground floor level with a meeting room, storage area, and toilets at first floor level on lands at Kilcoleman, Carrigatogher, Nenagh.  That was The Vengaboys with We're Going To Ibiza – the biggest song on this day in 1999 Onto music news on this day In 1977 David Bowie recorded a guest appearance on 'Bing Crosby's 'Merrie Olde Christmas' TV show duetting with Crosby on 'Peace On Earth - Little Drummer Boy. The track became a UK No.3 hit five years later in 1982. 1996 Noel Gallagher walked out on the rest of Oasis half way through an American tour after a fight with his brother Liam in a hotel in Charlotte North Carolina. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Scott Patterson was born in America in 1958 and rapper Ludacris was born in America on this day in 1977 and this is one of his songs. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

Interviewees: Justin Bullock, MD, MPH; Cary Payne, MD Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA Description: In Episode 114, Dr. Lisa Meeks talks with Dr. Justin Bullock (nephrology fellow, University of Washington; living with bipolar disorder) and Dr. Cary Payne (Program Director, Nephrology Fellowship, University of Washington) about navigating fellowship with a psychiatric disability—and how trust, humility, and creative flexibility built a training experience defined by healing and growth. Together, they retrace Justin's decision to pursue fellowship after a traumatic residency, his choice to lead with authenticity during the match, and the risks and rewards of disclosure in GME. They unpack how structured accommodations provided protection, why early defensiveness softened into trust, and the profound impact of Cary's disarming leadership approach: “It's not your job to teach us.” Listeners will hear advice for residents and fellows (consider strategic disclosure, seek accommodations as protective, build trusted provider teams) and for program directors (lead with humility, embrace uncertainty, and center accommodations in creativity rather than dogma). At its heart, the episode explores how one program became not just a safe space, but a place of healing—and why that benefits trainees, programs, and patients alike. This episode accompanies the open-access perspective This Armor of Mine: Perspectives of a Bipolar Physician and Program Director (Bullock & Payne, Chest, 2024) This episode is part of the ACGME/DWDI Disability Resource Hub, supported by the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation Catalyst Award, it's a powerful reminder that access isn't accidental—it's built intentionally, one relationship at a time.

Students right around the country are scrambling to find accommodation. Danielle and Brenda outline their alopecia journeys.

A prominent homeless charity claims families in Clare are staying in emergency accommodation for as long as two years. New figures from the Department of Housing show 73 adults here were accessing emergency accommodation in the week of July 21st to 27th. Across the same period, 147 families in Clare and Limerick were availing of such supports. Midwest Simon CEO Niall Garvey says these lodging were never intended for long-term residency.

In this episode, we're doing a deep dive into a quiet powerhouse of the sector that's still a mystery to many: Purpose-Built Student Accommodation, or PBSA. Join us as we explore how the world of student housing has evolved from "pokey student halls" to a sophisticated, professionally managed asset class attracting serious institutional money.

  Interviewees: Tom Pisano, MD PhD and Laura Ashley Stein, MD, MS, Ed. Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA Description: In Episode 111, Dr. Lisa Meeks talks with Dr. Tom Pisano (former Penn neurology resident; now neuro-hospital medicine and neuro-immunology fellow) and Dr. Laura Stein (Adult Neurology Program Director at Penn) about building an accessible neurology residency for a physician who uses a wheelchair—and how trust, planning, and culture made it work. Together, they trace Tom's match-day disclosure strategy and “find-your-people” approach, an accessibility walk-through with tape measures and ADA checks, and the practical creativity of equivalent rotations when sites differ in accessibility. They also unpack a real barrier—a security policy that blocked ED entry during stroke alerts—and how reframing access as patient safety moved the system. Listeners will hear candid advice for residents (hold onto your “why,” communicate early, invite teaching adaptations) and for program directors (start with goals, not habits; assume success; apply the same creativity you offer patients to your trainees). This episode accompanies a written case study and a Mini Grand Rounds conversation in Learn at ACGME. Part of the ACGME/DWDI Disability Resource Hub, supported by the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation Catalyst Award, it's a practical guide for PDs, residents, and anyone committed to equitable clinical training.   Transcript: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xB_Cp8EiekJ9ExUZLP61EvE-0y4HUv22LuRp0D6uNB0/edit?usp=sharing Key words: Medical education, physical disability, disability research, residency, accommodations, wheelchair, SCI, medical technology, residency, neurology, program director, GME, GME Policy Bio: Laura Stein I have been involved in the Neurology Residency Program since 2018, and Director of the program since 2024.

Our veterinary office practices are built on control or conformity, but this very special episode of “The Inventory Nation Podcast” focuses on a different priority: connection. Join host Nicole Clausen for a fascinating conversation with Ron Sosa, a certified veterinary practice management expert, all about neurodiversity in the workplace and the transformational results that can occur when leaders incorporate inclusivity. It's all about simple measures to incorporate things like sensory regulation, psychological safety and collaboration. With more than two decades of experience in the field, Ron has seen first-hand the power of Universal Design to reshape how we do business every day. He shares with us some basic tools that veterinary offices can deploy to support neurodiverse individuals – and the staff at large. “We create systems for conformity and – let's face it – people are not all the same,” says Ron, who is both a certified coach  and Executive Director of the Uncharted Veterinary Conference. “All people are unique and that's why we need to move to a human-centered approach.” Don't' miss this lively look at the simple steps all veterinary practices can take to support efficient inventory management that also promote harmony and productivity across the workplace! Nicole wraps up the episode by highlighting the business – and human – incentives behind inclusivity: “Connection and a sense of belonging is really at the root of what we need as humans. And we humans often spend more time in our workplaces than we do anyplace else!”Click here to learn more about Ron's forthcoming book, "Rewriting the Rules: A Leadership Model for a Neuroinclusive,  Human-Centered Workplace."What's your Inventory Management Superpower?

The Clare Immigrant Support Network says any plans to charge working asylum seekers for their accommodation must be assessed on a case by case basis. The Government is reportedly considering plans to charge asylum seekers with jobs up to €238 per week to live in IPAS centres to combat rising costs. There are currently 992 International Protection Applicants living across 12 centres in Clare. Clare Immigrant Support Network Manager Simon O'Treasaigh has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that many migrants are in casual employment and insists a one-size fits all approach cannot be applied.

 The Government is considering plans to charge asylum-seekers up to €238 a week for accommodation in IPAS centres. The proposed measure comes as costs for housing international protection applicants surged past €1 billion last year. For more on this we heard from Peadar Toibín, Meath West TD and Leader of Aontu.

Interviewees: Dr. Uyen Troung, and Dr. Nalinda Charnsangavej  Interviewer: Dr. Lisa Meeks Description: What does it take to create true accessibility in residency training? In this episode, Dr. Lisa Meeks is joined by Dr. Uyen Truong, Chief Resident at the UT-Austin Dell Medical School Pediatric Residency Program, and Dr. Nalinda Charnsangavej, the program's Director, for a candid conversation about disability inclusion in graduate medical education. Together, they share the story behind Dr. Truong's residency journey as a wheelchair user—from early planning and proactive accommodations to the team-wide commitment that made access possible. Listeners will hear how trust, open communication, and creative problem-solving helped dismantle barriers, and how the presence of physicians with disabilities strengthens patient care, especially for disabled children and their families. The discussion also dives into the practical side of accommodations in GME: what an access assistant does (and doesn't do), how to navigate procedural requirements, and the role of accrediting bodies like the ACGME and the American Board of Pediatrics in supporting inclusive training. This episode is part of the Disability Resource Hub series, made possible by the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation Catalyst Award for Transformation in Graduate Medical Education, and offers valuable insights for program directors, residents, and anyone committed to building equitable clinical learning environments.

In this week's episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I had the pleasure of chatting with Mark McGill, an award-winning real estate agent, property investor, boutique winemaker, Airbnb owner and calculated risk-taker.   Mark's story is inspiring because it's real. He's not just doing one thing; he's doing business and life on his terms. For podiatrists and entrepreneurs alike who want more freedom, impact, and joy from their work, there's a lot to learn here. “Love the one you're with; that goes for staff and clients.” - Mark McGill.  If you like great wine and love the idea of staying amongst the vineyards for a break, you need to check out McGill Wines and Accommodation or visit https://mcgillwines.com.au/ Key Takeaways: Mark takes action first, then works out the details.

Tiffany Falzon has worn her fair share of hats in her almost 37 years. With a professional background in accounting, Tiff was in Sydney when she first donned her hosting crown, opening a glamping tent on a block of land owned by her Dad in her home town of Marion Bay on South Australia's Yorke Peninsula and opting to manage it from afar. After the incredible initial success of the tent, Tiff eventually decided to move home and manage the tent herself and - once again with her industrious and resourceful Dad in tow - build from scratch property number 2, a tiny home. In the years following, Tiff went on to meet her now partner Luke and welcome a son, Tasman, with Luke stepping in to help with the business through the challenging initial years of Covid and beyond. Most recently, Tiff, Luke and their extended team have opened property number 3, a sprawling retreat of warm timbers, enticing outdoor nooks and calming indoor zones they very appropriately named 'The Sanctuary'. Now known as Bayside Glamping & Co, Tiff has over the past 8 years created something very special that draws on the richness of her local community with a great deal of pride. Please enjoy this terrific conversation about her journey today.   For more information about Hosting With Heart and to access our archive of over 100 episodes, visit the HWH website at www.hostingwithheart.net.au or follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/hostingwithheart Join our private Facebook group of 1300+ hosts from around Australia at https://www.facebook.com/groups/hostingwithheart/ Sign up and list your property on Heartful now at https://heartful.travel/host

Thanks for finding our podcast! We are a family of 5 who does most of our travel using credit card points and miles and we share how we leverage credit card offers to earn a ton of points/miles so we can afford travel as a larger family.Follow us on Instagram @TravelPartyof5The towering sequoias of Mariposa Grove, the refreshing mist from Bridal Veil Falls, and the unexpected joy of watching our typically reserved 11-year-old exclaim "This is amazing!" – our family adventure to Yosemite National Park delivered all this and more.Our road trip strategy began with renting a hybrid minivan for the 2,000-mile journey, earning American Airlines miles while saving our personal vehicle from mountain roads and inevitable snack debris. After an overnight at the Holiday Inn Express in Oakhurst (booked with an IHG free night certificate), we kicked off our Yosemite exploration with the Valley Floor Tour – a perfect introduction that provided fascinating insights into the park's history and ecology, including how indigenous fire management practices were disrupted by European settlers.For families considering Yosemite with young children, we discovered some perfect trails: Lower Yosemite Falls offers an easy walk with spectacular views, while Bridal Veil Falls rewards visitors with cooling mist after a short hike. The more ambitious Mariposa Grove trail showcased magnificent giant sequoias but required multiple breaks to manage the heat and terrain with our little ones. One unexpected highlight? Encountering a rattlesnake – though we had hoped for bears and deer during our visit!Accommodation was a crucial part of our experience. Rush Creek Lodge, located just minutes from the west entrance (though still a 45-minute drive to the valley floor), proved worth every penny of its $538 nightly rate. The resort offered heated pools, zip lines, game rooms, nightly s'mores, and endless activities that kept our kids entertained from sunrise to sunset. Even without televisions in the rooms, we connected as a family through board games and outdoor adventures.Our biggest tips? Map your route carefully to minimize backtracking on winding mountain roads, prepare for motion sickness with Dramamine (administered a full hour before departure), and check multiple weather sources before packing – we brought cold-weather gear for forecasted 60-degree days but encountered 90-degree heat instead!Looking to create your own Yosemite memories? Follow us on Instagram @TravelParty5 for photos, videos, and more insights from our adventure. And tune in next week when we continue our journey with our Lake Tahoe experiences!

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, I discuss the science of vision and share simple, effective tools to enhance eyesight and preserve eye health. I explain how the eyes and brain work together to process light, color and motion using specialized structures such as the retina and photoreceptors, and why conditions like nearsightedness, visual hallucinations and lazy eye occur. I also cover specific visual protocols to increase alertness and focus during work, improve sleep, and support visual health. Additionally, I highlight key vitamins essential for vision and discuss supplements such as lutein and astaxanthin for maintaining long-term eye health. Huberman Lab Essentials are short episodes—approximately 30 minutes—focused on essential science and protocol takeaways from past Huberman Lab episodes. Essentials will be released every Thursday, and full-length episodes will continue to be released every Monday. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.
